Re: Qashqai 2019 1.3 engine problem after thermostat replacement

trout This malarkey with the thermostat housing has caught everyone (dealers and owners) off guard. The best course of action seems to be jumping into some preventative maintenance and proactively replacing the housing.

Re: Qashqai 2019 1.3 engine problem after thermostat replacement

This long running article has got me seriously worried now and I’d appreciate any advice on legal rights to returning the car for a refund. I bought a 2020 Tekna three weeks ago from Lookers Nissan in Carlisle. I was a member on here four years ago as I owned a 1.5dci back then which I was very happ...

Re: 1.3digT engine problems.

@trout. That does not seem to be the exact same problem as with the 2017-2021 Qashqai at all ! AFAIK it does not mention blowing up a Mercedes A class engine like the Nissan issue. I don't think that thermostate housing is similar (?) You could be right, but everything I read says” the A class the ...

Re: 1.3digT engine problems.

"Also I looked on the Mercedes A class forum, as it’s supposed to be the exact same engine in both vehicles. All they mention on there is fitting an aluminum plate against it to strengthen it, takes minutes and does away with the problem, very strange?" Thank you for this bit of informati...

Re: 1.3digT engine problems.

I’m glad you’ve had your thermostat housing sorted, one thing less to worry about. I’m in the same predicament, I’ve only got 24000 on the clock, had the car three weeks but it’s a constant worry now. I was surprised in the article above that there was no mention of it as a fault? Also I looked on t...
