Qashqai Model: Mk.1 Qashqai Facelift - J10b (2010–2013)

Post by Neil1984 »

Hi, new to forum as only got my qq last week, first off I love it. 12plate 1.6 diesel face-lift model.

I've enjoyed playing with all the mod cons as it's a massive leap from my zafira a 53 plate.

My question is though I read through the manual and it says when you start the engine it gives notifications then it says "oil level ok" and you can press "i" on the steering wheel to see more info like how much oil is there. I've also seen videos on YouTube of people doing this.
However I cannot get this notification on mine? Am I missing something? Sorry if this has already been asked, I tried searching but unable to find a previous post.

Thanks

Very true, just wanted to make sure that there wasn't a setting to turn it on. Thanks

No, like windscreen washer level, needs doing manually.
May have altered on the new model J11B.

I have a 2010 Qashqai (facelift) and just bought a 2011 model yesterday, same trim with bluetooh, pano roof, sat nav, etc.

I have this setting on my 2010, but not my 2011 :-( any idea why?

Hi David, I just done a service on a Mk2 which oil level was good on dip stick, still had 4000 miles to go until next service light came up on the dash but done well more than 12 months between service. Check out the videohttps://youtu.be/Ete48iJSeCs
