Olaf, I believe there was basically no problems with the 1,2L engine until the Oil Useage Problems arose due to incorrect or defect parts being manufactured. Our 1,3L motor was OK and when using the revs was pretty quick of the mark - Dave
Correct this Alliance Engine was developed in collaboration with Daimler who use it in their Mercedes-Benz brand vehicles. To me this is a very nice motor, quick and responsive. The Alliance expects to build up to one million of these engines in the next fiscal year, and it will be fitted to more than 50% of all Qashqais sold.
Customer benefits of the new 1.3-litre petrol engine are Improved performance in terms of better engine response and power / torque delivery. A quieter experience for occupants as there is less need for higher revolutions (so increasing noise) because of the higher torque at low RPM
Reduced fuel consumption and lower CO2 and particulate emissions. This improved efficiency is due to a fundamental reworking of the engine design compared with previous Nissan petrol engines
Specific areas of improvement include fuel injection, combustion chamber design, reduced friction and optimisation of the turbocharger
Reduced cost of ownership. The engine design means lower maintenance costs over the lifetime of the engine. Service intervals have been extended from 12,000 miles to 18,000 miles

Could be a battery issue
(2015 Nissan Qashqai Tekna DIG-T 1.2 sold 15/6/18) ~ 2018 Suzuki Ignis SZ5 - 2018 Yamaha MT-07 ~ (2024 Volvo EX30 ordered)
Whats the worst this can be, battery, alternator? Has anyone else seen that message come up on their dash?
