Again on you tube, there are a host of videos by a company called automatrics tracking systems. Basically they trace stolen cars using their own methods. Very interesting. It is concerning the number of vehicles stolen by signal cloning. Your keyless key fob and car system will regularly "ping&...

What a worrying read that article was Dave. How on earth have they got away with this so lightly ? Fair play to the Americans / Canadians, they love their law suits over there, they don't mess around. I hope our DCT auto boxes are not made by the same company and will be more reliable. Good info by ...

Thanks Dave, good point, money is King, stuff the smaller nations. I tell you something, if I was in that group having to fork out 6 grand for a replacement gearbox I think a zero cost petition starting with social media would be my first option. All it takes is someone affected to start it off and ...

I downloaded a repair manual for a Qashqai J11 but it did not include the 1,3 petrol engine variant. The haynes website search does not now include the 1.3 petrol engine either so the question is, does anyone have access to a repair manual for this model of Qashqai as stated above. I clicked a link ...

Reading the links above it seems owners who pushed back against Nissan in the USA and used the courts were successful in applying enough pressure to make a change happen. Unless i'm lagging behind and a similar case has occurred here, why don't affected owners get together and do the same ? I mean s...

So how come the Americans were able to twist Nissan's arm and get an extended warranty. Did a similar case occur in the UK or was it never challenged. It certainly does not seem fair that owners over here are expected to cough up some large sums of money to correct an inherent fault, when it has bee...

The above was Good advice about contacting an independent for assistance. Prior to owning my current qashqai I had considered purchasing a 3 year old cvt version car that had only done 800 miles and was an ex-motorbility car. The internet and forums alerted me to gearbox problem and the potential is...

Hi Buffy I have the turned down edge version on my C-max. A UK based company I think. On this occasion with the Qashqai, I removed the adhesive backing tape and substituted it for clear silicone adhesive instead so that the trim fitted as close to the sill as possible. I applied the sealant in space...

Thanks Gloucester,
What areas would you like me to zoom into for you my friend.

The Sun came out today and so did my mirror chrome strips that I have been waiting to fit.
I cleaned the painted section of the mirror shroud with IPA liquid and stuck the trims on. I used a couple of cable ties joined together to keep things in place while the suns rays did the curing job.
