Hi

I have been online and looked at the configurator tool for a new J11B

The last time I did this 4 years ago , I ended up with a 1.5 Diesel N - Connector.
Now somewhere I seem to remember that I could spec the following :
LED headlamps
Heating pack which included a heated steering wheel - although I could be wrong.
The rest of the Heating pack was for the front screen.

Now , for me to get the necessary ( for me ) LED headlamps , I need to go to an N-Tec or Tekna which is getting a bit pricey for me .
I cant see where I can spec an N-Connector with an option for LED headlamps?

Am I being blind ?

Is the DCT gearbox reliable over high mileages , and does it adversely affect fuel economy?

Many thanks

Steve

Steve, we have had two QQ’s and never heard or been offered a Heated Steering Wheel, now in the US this is possibly an option. The LED’s are offered on the N-TEC upwards and the Heated Front Screen On the TEKNA upwards. Please take a read of the attached post as there are lots of model changes (less being offered), different model names, Engines etc....it is most likely worth your while asking a Dealer as October was supposed to be the change month and there might be bargains still around. I have seen no new Brochure around at present or on the Nissan Web.
I have had the DCT Gearbox for a year but only 3000 + Kms but this really is a lovely box, smooth, quite etc. - Dave 😉

I can’t answer to the long term reliability of the DCT 'box but I have just driven from Stockport to Penzance at motorway speeds and the computer says 50mpg.
I'm sure brim-to-brim numbers will be slightly different but it’s respectable IMHuO

The LED pack disappeared in the September 2019 brochure.

Prior to that it was offered on the N-CONNECTA for £495 and included:

LED Pack: LED Headlights, Adaptive Front Lighting System, Signature LED Daytime Running Lights, Automatic Headlight Levelling System

No one will have had a Qashqai equipped with a DCT for long enough to assess long-term durability.

Buffy, as Gloucester has mentioned this DCT 7 Speed Box has only been around a couple of years, it was introduced around Oct 18. If you need more facts try the “Search” Area. Here is a general Nissan Writeup on the DCT - Dave 😏
