  1. The Qashqai arrived last night around 6:30pm. Driver rang about half an hour before arrival, turned up right on time, handed over all the documents, and the car looks exactly like the photos. It’s booked in with my local garage tomorrow just to double-check everything, big thanks to everyone who shared their experiences it genuinely helped me make the decision.
  2. Alright, I’ve decided to go ahead. I made the payment and got a confirmation email straight away. They said delivery will be booked within the next 24 hours and they’ll confirm the date and time window shortly. Feeling nervous but cautiously optimistic!
  3. Yeah I get the reasoning, it just feels like a leap of faith sending that amount upfront for something I haven’t physically seen yet.
  4. That sounds reassuring. How did you paid? I was hoping to use a credit card for the extra protection if possible.
  5. I’ve been speaking with them today and they’ve already sent over a video walk-around of the car and a copy of the V5C. Everything looks clean but I’ll be honest buying a car without seeing it in person still makes me uneasy.
  6. Morning everyone, just wanted to see if anyone here has come across a company called Whelan Transport before as I’ve spotted a Nissan Qashqai they had for sale on Facebook Marketplace. Does anyone know or have heard of them before? Are they real?
  7. Is the passive cat easily removable and cleanable?
  8. I am considering that if I replace the glow plug controller, I should also replace the glow plug loom.
  9. Upon initially replacing the glow plugs, the code 4952 indicated a smooth working controller for cylinder 4, with 4A44/4A64 activating cylinders 1 and 3. Replaced all four once more, resulting in a 4A64 cylinder. One activation 4A54 cylinder Two activations Activation of cylinder 3 in 4A44 E373 no message (RLS wiper speed), receiver integrated automatic heating/air conditioning system/IHKS/IHS, Transmission JBE; what should be attempted next? I performed a DPF cleaning despite having a DPF deletion last year.
  10. I have replaced the glow plugs twice and performed a DPF cleaning. However, it remains in limp mode.
  11. Hello everyone, I previously discussed limp mode here some time back. A small mechanic inspected the car but was unable to identify any issues and expressed confusion. Instructed me to remove the interior fuse box, as moisture occasionally infiltrates and induces erratic malfunctions. I examined all fuses and relays, stored it in a warm location for a week, and subsequently replaced it. The fault code for glow plug number four was detected, prompting the replacement of all four glow plugs. Currently indicating the activation of glow plugs 1, 2, and 3. I will replace the glow plug harness and the glow plug control module. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
  12. Niro is available exclusively in non-petrol variants.
  13. Identical situation with my Model S from November 2016, equipped with version 12.3.6 of Full Self-Driving. It did not occur prior to the most recent update, which was several months ago. Frustration...
  14. It is likely that a new component is unnecessary; ensure that the connections are clean and provide effective metal-to-metal contact.
  15. I believe you are attempting to pick the forward or reverse position without the ready mode activated.Certain owners have discovered that simultaneously pressing the brake pedal and the start button, or nearly so, may prevent the vehicle from entering ready mode, resulting in delays of varied durations. It is advisable to pause briefly after using the footbrake before activating the start button. Another option I routinely utilise is pre-warming the car via the app before use; upon entering the warmed vehicle and pressing the foot brake, it immediately transitions to ready mode. An open door or other issues would not prevent the automobile from entering ready mode; only attempting to drive would do so. I trust this information is beneficial.
  16. I attempted to use the FitCAMX; however, the package provided contained numerous incompatible components intended for other vehicles. Additionally, it is devoid of GPS functionality, resulting in the absence of location, speed, and directional data. I have installed WolfBox systems on my other vehicles, and they have shown to be reliable. I have returned the FitCAMX and am reverting to the WolfBox.
  17. Unfortunately, it seems that all dealerships believe they are offering you a service.
  18. Yes, a taller tyre maintains the same diameter.
  19. I had a really intriguing encounter. In 2023, I purchased KONI shock absorbers. One of the rear ones leaked after 150 km, prompting its replacement. For a duration of two years, until July 2025, I believed the car's general handling had enhanced. The front ceased to dive when braking and exhibited reduced vulnerability to crosswinds. However, the rear continued to oscillate, prompting my need for firmer springs. Concurrently, the vehicle began to vibrate in the back when braking, prompting me to take it to the service centre. They examined all aspects but discovered nothing. My last recourse was to examine the shock absorbers. The front was pristine, but the back was questionable. Utterly destroyed, emitting gas leaks. I used a vehicle with defective shock absorbers for two years, mistakenly believing the issue was with the spring. I was fortunate to have two months remaining on my warranty. I have already driven 5,000 km on the new ones, and that is all I can convey. The back of the automobile exhibits no bounce whatsoever. I am composing this message in response to several remarks, including those underneath KONI's YouTube video, where consumers assert that the situation has worse compared to prior conditions. I assume they possess compromised shock absorbers from an initial manufacturing batch. I am now fully content; I too experienced what you described on a rough highway—trucks began to overtake me. Today is ideal.
  20. That eliminates that possibility and raises significant worry. It is time for diagnostics to ascertain the underlying issues. Salutations
  21. As already said. I had the identical problem, which was caused by the fob being inadvertently activated while in my pocket. Salutations
  22. I would want to learn about the troubles you had during the first months of ownership, since you own the same model of Evoque as I do, but are 6-7 months farther along in your experience. It would be beneficial to be informed in advance. My vehicle required a new door lock and replacement of both the primary and auxiliary batteries prior to my acquisition, and subsequently necessitated the replacement of a rear shock absorber (covered under warranty).
