Hi, is latest Xtronic free of previous problems can anyone tell me.

Hi all I joined this forum in the hope that someone can help me, my 2015 Nissan quashquai 1.5 DCI N TEC has suffered a catastrophic fault in the ECU, it’s completely fried my mechanic has told me that the only solution is to take a full ECU kit from a donor car and put it into mine, and it might work as things stand, the car will have to be scrapped, so this is the last roll of the dice I was wondering if anyone on this forum has ever heard of this being done, and what components make up a full ECU kit. any help would be greatly appreciated mick

Hullo dear Nissan owners. We love keeping our old Nissan's in top shape. Our 1992 safari long wheel base still purrs at 320000 KMs However our 1991 camper van while still purring, has developed a door mechanism problem no one local and lots of time dismantling things can solve. The rear lift door has a motor which pulls the door nicely tight then should stop. It does close it properly for a few seconds during a clackity episode, then opens again. We found after several hours that if I pull out the fuse while it is making the clackity sound, it stays closed. To open it, it is necessary to replace the fuse and wait for the noise to stop..at no stage does the outer or inner handle do anything any more. Any clues to a fix would be most welcome. I've fiddled with the button which I guess is meant to switch off the motor when closed tight, thinking it may not be earthing..no luck.

I’ve just realised it does the same knocking sound when reversing too.

The ECU unit from an Auto K13 2016 / 2019 - I have read that it will work in a manual K13 2012 / 2014 ( ok you have to change the ECU Wiring loom to allow for the ABS unit which appears to be the only main difference.) The fuse box is the same and as you are not changing the engine wiring harness to the injectors etc that should be fine The interior wiring loom i know will have to be changed to a newer one, again, it should not matter if the harness is from an auto or manual, so long as you have the correct BCM and Push Start (if required) Has anyone done this successfully ? or tried and failed and gone back to just swapping out the ECU unit for a newer manual one ? - Really interested in hearing your thoughts.

Just bought a Pathfinder and hoped i could get some advice on repairs and maintenance.

Hi all , new to site so hope I’m posting this in the right place .😁 purchased a pathfinder approx 7 months ago and getting to grips with the electrical problems. changed the clock spring recently so horn now working . However air bag light still flashes 1 long and 7 short. purchased a srs code reader and have B 1059 code which cannot be erased! drivers seat belt doesn’t retract properly so I wonder if this is the issue ? Possibly an open circuit ? my question is if I pull the connector can I link the seat belt terminals with a resistor to confirm that this is the problem ie allows a reset if so what size ? Or if anyone can offer some other ideas to resolve . Thanks

Hi my name is Graham, I would like to ask how to obtain the rear brake assembly for my Nissan QX? I have had the car since new and would like to find the correct brake assembly. The pistons often get stuck as little use of the rear brakes causes them to fail at the MOT. My car is now nearly 30 years old first purchased in 1995. The vehicle runs very well and is currently with a valid MOT. A service is due soon therefore it would be good to have 2 new rear brake assembly units fitted.

Hello, I recently imported a rare Nissan Stagea 350S with the 6 x speed manual gearbox only 167 were made by AUTECH , i took it for its first mot today and it failed on both front lower control arm inner bushes would anybody know who can supply me with items or better still a pair of wishbones which makes the job easier for the mechanic. Cheers .. jimcrickuk@aol.com

I have a 2016 Nissan Micra which has a USB port as the aux input. I would like to play minidiscs from an external portable minidisc player which has a 3.5mm jack output. I would therefore need a jack-to-USB adaptor to do this but I have been told that not all such adaptors will work for this purpose. Can anyone enlighten me, please?

It should be something like selecting the individual seat position and then depressing the position number 1 or 2 button (depending on who is driving at the time) for a short period of time

also worth checking the quality of the battery - a lot of cheap ones fail on the individual cells a quality battery can be determined by the weight of it and also the cost - not worth skimping on replacement batteries

Sounds like transmission wind-up when the four wheel drive diff locks up on full lock - would advise not to use 4WD on tarmac too often to avoid damaging the transmission

I think the best option would be to get one in any colour, cut a hole for the side repeater if necessary and then have it resprayed
