Hi All,
I have a 2014(oct) Nissan qashqai Tekna 1.5 And we've not really had any issues at all with it but recently its developed 3 issues/faults and was hoping someone could shed some light on them and the best fix for them.
1 - Parking sensors
A while a got the front left sensor would stick on this was normally after heavy rain or the car being wash this would normally clear after drying out.
But when you start the car i receive System fault light and it disables the parking sensors completely. If i try and turn them back on it just says system fault. Does this mean a sensor has failed how is the best way to test which one as i cant hear for the clicking as the whole system is disabled.
2- when the radiator fans starts up or slows down it rattles quite viciously I've checked all the mounts and the rubbers seem fine any one else experienced similar the only fix a new radiator fan?
3 - Air con is not going cold. Normally with previous vehicles I would just re-gas it my self using a can of ez chill but im sure ive read somewhere you can use this on the qashqai?
Thanks all
Parking sensors , Radiator fan and air con issues

You’ll find answers relating to the parking sensors and air con if you use the search button at the top of the forum. There’s too much info to go over again here, but you will get the answers you need. I don’t recall there being any previous issues with radiator fans though.

Welcome to the Forum. I have also been around from 2014 like gvmdaddy and as he has mentioned these points have been widely covered but it needs time to “Search” them.
Our QQ is a 2014 Model and the faults you mention are well known such as the Sensors, Electronics & Air Con (normally leaking Condenser) which were corrected, but the Rattling Fan Problem I cannot also recall - Dave

1. I didn't encounter this problem
2. I don't recall hearing the radiator fan going on
3. Qashqai J11s use special gas that's not a "home" fix. Condensers often frequently fail.

2. Could be the bearings of the fans shaft.

... and an interesting discourse at the page linked from there - http://www.ac4cars.co.uk/r1234yf.html and others at that domain.

My Qashqai radiator fan has just started rattling this week. I watched it as it spun up and could see it moving back and forwards on the shaft while picking up speed before violently rattling the whole radiator and bracket.
I'm in the process of taking the radiator out and I'm hoping that the fan has just come a bit loose.
