Good evening,

I’m new to this, so apologies in advance.

I have a 2010 Qashqai - 1.5 Acenta. I recently did a repair on the wiper motor, having to remove the wiper arms/plastic trim.

Whilst putting the wiper arm back on (or attempting to), I dropped the nut into the oblivion (engine bay) and couldn’t find it.

Can someone advice on size/ thread?

Thank you in advance.

Dave

Welcome to the Forum ! Why do you not try a rough measurement or even a correct one with a measuring instrument such as a Vernier Gauge, just to give you a rough or in fact accurate size if possible. I personally would go to a Hardware Shop and get a Range of Nuts eg M8 / M10 / etc as they must only be penny items and the problem should be solved. Or you could ask your friendly Nissan Dealer - Dave 😉

The nut you droppd may be resting on the bottom of the engine tray. So if you have car ramps you can remove it to have a look. Or you can measure the size of the nut you'll still have on the other front wiper blade arm 😀
