Re: Any good experiences with the 1.2 Dig T?

I have one from 2018 and it has not taken any oil whatsoever for over 1 year now. I suspect most newer models are ok, you only hear about the complaints on this site.

Re: Mpg 1.2 Dig T

58 mpg? Wow! My absolute best is a bit less than 50 (manual transmission). Still alright for a petrol SUV, but to be honest my average is only about 40 mpg. I often do very short and frequent trips. No oil loss whatsoever. For reference, got a new Audi A4 1.8T in 2007 which took quite a lot of oil s...

Re: 1.2 DIG-T - Oil loss

I have a 2018 QQ and I must say, after reading this thread, that I was a bit concerned over oil loss. But after almost 1 year with mostly very short and frequent trips it has not consumed anything at all. Hopefully the problem has gone away on later models, but I will still probably sell my car befo...

Re: TPMS accuracy

@NG1

I have the same "problem". Did you measure your tire pressure with your Draper gauge? Was the TPMS reading correct?

Re: What uo you most dislike about your Qashqai??

The gear knob squeaks and drives me mad everytime I change gear (and that is a lot of changing gears due to the low torque)! Rattle/judder from th...

Re: Cup holder removal

Thanks Noddy1875! Like a walk in the park... ;)

Perhaps it is easier to inspect from the rear of the console. That is just one piece to remove and that could get broken in the process.

Re: Cup holder removal

Hi! I just registered, but have enjoyed this forum for a while since I got my Qashqai. I have a rattle from the left side of the transmission tunnel that drives me mad. It rattles against the cup holder, on the inside. I need to remove the cup holder to inspect what is wrong. I can remove the back o...
