Hi there, apologies if this is in the wrong section but it's my first post on here.
I've recently last week purchased a 2013 Qashqai 1.5 dci. On the initial test drive we didn't notice anything out of the ordinary but there's a couple of things I would appreciate advice with:
1) a cold start - even after waiting for dash lights to turn off/plugs to warm up, the engine is taking at least 2-3 seconds to turn over and start. This is slightly better when engine is warmer. But in my other car VW Golf 08 plate I've recently had battery changed and it turns over immediately. Is this normal?
2) when accelerating and reaching approx 2000rpms there's a almost rattle type noise when in gear only (not if car is revved when neutral). This doesn't affect drive and there's no issues with power/pull and no engine lights etc.
Can anyone help???
My first Qashqai 2013, 1.5 dci. Advice needed
