Clutch sound from 2nd to 3rd

Hello good people My current manual transmissions 1.2 DIG-T 115 Qashqai from 2018 is only my second car ever. I've had three motorcycles before though, one of which would sound like a metal coffin being dropped to the floor every time I shifted gear. So this may be all normal, but I just thought I'd...

Re: N-tec plus 1.2 petrol MPG?

Wow, how do you guys drive? or are my calculations wrong?

I get between 5 and 6 l/100 km which I think converts to 47-56mpg (UK). I drove mostly outer city roads with 90km/h speed limit, but even on highway drives I will be at just above 6l/100km.

Re: Any good experiences with the 1.2 Dig T?

Hello there Herbatov

I have the document (supposedly) stating the affected VN-range of engines. Let me know if you want it and I can send it to you.

Personally I'm very happy with my 2018 1.2 DIG-T.

Re: My 2yr old ...

That price! For fandens da mand (so to speak...).

Still a very good looking car though! I like the wheels. I have the QQ Tekna myself with the 19" wheels and I like the ride a lot. Some say they are firmer, yes, but my old car was a GT Sports Coupé. Anything QQ is for me a smooth ride ;P

Re: Throttle input change

@Qashowner: Hmm, I dont think my model has changable drive mode. I've checked all around the dashboard as well as in the menues. It's a 2018 Facelift Tekna (not +). @DaveBerlin: many thanks for the input. I get your point :) Maybe I just need to adjust to it. How much rev do ýou give the engine when...

Re: Throttle input change

Well, it says it changes the throttle response and not performance. Installation is in between two different existing connectors on a cable somewhere.

It still sounds a bit dubious though, that's why I'm wondering.

From Alfa to Qashqai

Hello good people I had an Alfa Romeo GT 2.0 JTS up until a few weeks ago. Spare parts are not in abundance to put it mildly so when the front suspension started sounding funny, I traded it in for a Qashqai. I was struggling to choose between the 1.2 DIG-T 115 and the 1.3 DIG-T 140. I had a limited ...

Throttle input change

Hello good people As posted in the "Introduction" section here, I am very pleased with my Qashqai J11 1.2 DIG-T (2017/2018) However...if I had to wish for one thing, it would be just a liiiitle bit more power on lower revs below 1500. I do *not* want to remap it as that will definately voi...
