Re: Swapping wheels front to back

As I have had new tyres on the front of my QQ I could tell that the garage had swapped the wheels when the tyres were fitted. This has made no difference in the reading of the tyre pressures at all. So id say this was in accurate to presume the sensors are linked on the position of the car.

Re: Soon to be a QQ owner

Just thought I wonder if they have improved the CONDENSER and how long will that last. :o :o :o :o :o

Re: Air Conditioning not very cold

Run mine all the time and still had the problem, though my A/C was sorted out about 6 months ago. My last car a 2012 SEAT LEON had no issues with the air con over 3 years. Ddint use it that much yet nothing leaked and it remained cold though out. I guess German/Spanish quality shines through in the...

Re: Air Conditioning not very cold

Re: Air Conditioning not very cold

Does any one run their A/C all the time and still have the condenser problem ? I ask this as some say you need to run the A/C at least an hour a week to keep it good condition. Personally I prefer an open window so minimal use.

Re: 1.5dci Oil Level Low - Just 5k miles ?

have to say I only check my oil level when the washer bottle empties. My 1.5 dci in my 2 years of ownership dosent really use any oil. over the year it never been below the low level so no need to top up.

Re: Considering Qashqai

ive joined the condenser club. didn't know it was such a big problem. I don't often use my a/c is that why there is a problem I wonder. My seat leon never suffered with any condenser problem.

Re: Air Con problem

Just adding to this post. Mt 2 year old QQ also has a/c problems. They checked on service and found the condenser is the problem, being fixed on warranty. They said they recommend a re gas every two years also but if the condenser is rubbish whats the point ???

Re: Air Conditioning not very cold

just had my QQ serviced. Same as a lot on here the A/C was warm. Dealer said Nissan know there is a condenser problem. They havr ordered a new one. wait time 6/8 weeks. ???????? thought that was a joke don't they build a QQ every minute ? perhaps they don't include A/C units.
