I found out that if after you switch off the engine you can pull the full beam stick twice and it actives the headlights for about 30 to 60 seconds to light your way home when it's dark. Great for these long dark nights.

Great vid. Had no idea about the camera on the wheel.

[@markloughtonUK]

Press and hold the Day/Night button and you will get a large clock instead of the satnav map or radio. Press and hold the Call Button on the steering wheel and it will activate your voice assistant on your phone. This is excellent for sending txt messages whilst driving. Not sure this works on the facelift J11 but it worked on my 2014 when I had it. Interesting you mentioned the engine management light. Mine came on after years of other faults so I got rid of it in the end. Think mine was a Friday car as it spent more time in the garage than it did on the road. I couldn't wait to get rid of it in the end :(

Pressing and holding ☀️/🌙 to show the clock and 📞 to activate voice assistant was implemented back in the J10

[@winty2721]

I got the 1.2 digi t 2014 plate bought second hand in 2017 Tekna Dan and it’s now got oil consumption issues and needs a new timing chain ( or in reality a new engine). It’s been in dealership for 4 month while we work out a resolution. I thought it was the bees knees till 2018 when the oil issues started. It’s not put me off I am looking at another today. I like you said in the other video about park assist. Avoid the 1.2 digi t engine. Great advice

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

Yeah I've not heard great things about the 1.2!

[@winty2721]

I had to let it go today £9500 up the creak. It’s the biggest mistake of my life ( so far anyway). I test drove the 1.4 2015 diesel dci today Tekna spec amazing. I had to come to the realisation in the current climate that I can’t afford it. I gotta say it hurts 😫. I wish I had took the time to research the 1.2 digi t engine earlier.

[@andyben87]

That wiper trick is great. I'll have to try it on the US version. Thanks

Yeah really useful. I find that the wiper arms make contact with the bonnet at their down position anyway, so it's great for changing the blades.

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

I don't think so, I'm not so clued up on the j10 I'm afraid

[@brianiswrong]

Having had 2 teknas a j10 and a j11 The only thing that disappointed , was the general lack of interior ambient lighting (the red led around the gear lever on the j11 apart) even the passenger window switches were not lit. And the j10 not having folding/ opening mirrors with locking unlocking the car,and auto open or close windows when opening or locking the car (both fixed on the j11) but they are doable with 2 aftermarket modules and a little DIY. Oh and the j11 tekna loosing the amp under the drivers seat and the subwoofer in the boot (for cost cutting I guess).

Yeah, I have the folding mirror module on mine.

[@AnonAnonAnon]

Can I add to your tips? The fitting of external bought ancillaries to a Qashqai. My QQ is a 2008 model. I've had three years of trouble free driving until I fitted a hardwired dashcam into it a year ago. The fitted was perfect, the dashcam worked. After a few months, my QQ alarm started going off for no reason, four way flashers going, and this would go on and off for up to 15 - 20 minutes, and I could still drive the car with all that going on if I wanted, the immobiliser never kicked in. This happened irregularly, no rhyme or reason! Nissan stated it could be the NATS wiring harness or bonnet/boot/door catches and that the car would need to come in for testing (costing how much?!?!). The Nissan forums stated problems such as the internal pressure sensor setting the alarm off (but why not immobilising the car then, I could still drive it with the siren going off), damp conditions within the cabin space messing with the NATS module (my Nissan does suffer horrific condensation in winter) and many other reasons why this would happen. I've tried loads of different things (don't try disconnecting the car battery, the NATS immobiliser has an internal battery all if its own, the siren will still sound). The eureka moment came from a US forum. Seems someone over the pond suffered the same problem, and his local garage told him to disconnect everything within the car that wasn't factory fitted including USB ports, hardwired/cigarette lighter powered dashcams, anything that wasn't factory fitted. See if the problem persists, if not, add the ancillaries one by one until the problem starts again. It was the hardwired dashcam causing the problem. It was plugged into a fuse slot that was supposed to draw no power with the ignition switched off, but it WAS drawing so many amps, not enough to kill the battery, but enough for the fickle NATS system to sound the alarm, flash the four way lights and still be drivable. It fitted the situation. Parked up on a Friday, not to be driven until Monday, alarm would start sounding Sunday night, early Monday morning. So I've disconnected my dashcam when not driving. A pain but it seems to be working. No more siren blaring.

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

So the hard wire kit caused the issues?

[@AnonAnonAnon]

@@TheQashqaiGuy Yes, and no. The hardwire kit works and works well with the dashcam WHEN the car is turn on and ticking over. When the car is switched off the fuse port the hardwire was plugged into was supposed to be dead, but was still supplying a few amps to the dashcam battery. My QQ is 13 years old. Yours is younger. If you look at the various Nissan forums you'll see many many comments on the Nissan NATS and how fickle it can be and across Nissans of all ages. I just happen to be unlucky that my QQ NATS system doesn't like voltage been drained when the car is parked and switched off. Great channel by the way.

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

Oh ok, I've put a hardwire kit on mine. I'll keep an eye on it.

[@terryrush1425]

Aha, the alarm on my Pulsar went off for the first time at the weekend, and I do have a dashcam that I hard wired into the cigar socket fuse, so that it runs for a minute or so after turning off the ignition. I wonder if that was the cause? If it happens again I'll wire it into a different fuse.

@@terryrush1425 If you have a volt meter you can see which fuse socket doesn't draw power when the ignition is switched off. Give that a try.

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

I have the same issue with Bluetooth playback. You can adjust the volume of the sensor beeps from the parking assistance menu on the dash display.

[@gunnarjohannsson7393]

In my limited experience it has to do with the bluetooth on your phone. I have a problem with my Nokia 7.2 where the audio wont occasionally play and I've found the quickest way to fix that is to turn the bluetooth on the phone off and on. Temporarily using a LG Q7 which doesn't have that issue but will play garbled for the first 5 seconds any time the car is started. I theorize that it might be an issue of different bluetooth versions, the bluetooth adapter in the car not playing nicely with phones that have bluetooth 5 or newer. P.s. 2016 Qashqai Tekna

[@tauseefahmad1576]

I had similar issue but what I have learnt is that if your phone is connected to the car via Bluetooth then play tracks on the phone and if it doesn't come on the patiently press AUX button once and again. That worked for me, by pressing twice it switches from Aux cable mode to the phone. And now even if I don't play anything on the phone and just press the Aux button when I get in the car and connected it starts playing where I left last time. Press Aux to turn off or switch to cable mode.

When test drove it on Bendy Cumbrian roads, I noticed it, but the sales man said its probably the lane warning. Its not worrying just cant fathom it out. You can go for miles and nothing then suddenly a beep, no warning lights or messages. A mystery!

Hey my nissan all of a sudden playing music radio CD the sound stops for a few minutes?

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

Hmmm 🤔 anything come up on screen? Is it only when playing cd?

[@maryoconnell4983]

@@TheQashqaiGuy nothing popping up on the screen. It happens with CD and radio. Just sounds stops few mins then comes bk on randomly

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

Maybe worth checking with Nissan UK call centre to see if yours has had the update that came out.

[@saahir68]

why is there persistent auto on/off fault displayed

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

On yours? Could be a low battery. Stop/start won't work if your battery capacity is low.

[@saahir68]

@@TheQashqaiGuy thx bro.. Bt amaron battery is there n less than 2yrs..is it true the car uses lots of battery unnecessarily?

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

Some of the qashqai were fitted with a poor battery from factory. I can't remember the brand name but it is a common fault. The battery can't put up with the stop/start system.

Would trade all the tricks for a less sqeeky interior

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

Mines not too bad to be honest. Is it the whole interior you're meaning or a certain part?

[@tonyparkin3379]

@@TheQashqaiGuy flies buzzing in passenger vent. Noisey steering wheel when cold. Rear door window trim comes loose. Needed super glue to glue back in 1" long plastic trim end. Squeaky front driver's seat.

Sheesh! I guess it's not a new one?

@@TheQashqaiGuy only 30.000 on the clock. Common on all qashqais. Also have weak front suspension. Wear tyres very quickly too.

[@TheQashqaiGuy]

Fair enough. Not had too many issues with mine! Had Pirellis on all 4 tyres that lasted 20k miles on the front, rears still got good life left. Guess you're out of warranty
