Got a Qashqai 1.5D manual new Dec 2019, done 7500 miles in 9 months, engine oil low level warning appeared on dashboard, with the level showing practically nothing in it !

Re: Smoke coming from bonnet after drive?

He lifted the bonnet and found that the oil cap had not been fitted properly, so oil was getting out and spilling on the engine, causing the smoking. You've probably already...

Re: Service Schedule - 1.5DCI New 2019 model

I don't know what sites you've been looking at - but you've been seriously misled. The Qashqai service schedule for your car is 1 year/18,000 miles. Thanks for that ! I was really scratching my head, there was a service schedule on a EU Nissan website which seemed to show oil changes every 5k miles...

Service Schedule - 1.5DCI New 2019 model

Hi All I've ordered a new QQ which will be delivered the early December 2019, and was having a nose at the service schedule. My current car, a Volvo XC60 D5 which drinks diesel like no tomorrow (30mpg) has a service schedule of every year or 17k miles whichever comes first. Looking online, it seems ...

Re: MPG with new 1.5 DCI 115 Engine

Blimey, that is humungous amounts of MPG !!! If I'm getting 55+ on short journeys, then I'm a happy guy ! Currently getting 25-30 locally in my XC60 D5 leased car which is soon to go (40 on very long slow steady non-hilly motorway run). Thanks for the reply Weasel !
