  1. Blimey it does sound like it is possessed 🙂 maybe you need to call in a priest The first thing I would look at is the battery terminals are secure and free from contamination and then check all the leads from it (particularly the earth leads) If any of the earth leads are damaged then this may be one of the reasons If in doubt then take it to an auto-electrician for them to diagnose Let us know how you get on with it
  2. It should show on the fusebox cover But I would be more concerned as to why the fuse has blown
  3. The MPG read out is based on average driving styles, e.g. hard acceleration, hills (up or down) and can fluctuate wildly. Over a set period of time it will settle down to a more precise average rather than bouncing up and down
  4. I have had issues with the throttle pedal potentiometer before and gave symptoms similar to this You have to 'dial in' the switch which rotates to a given setting when you measure the volts between a certain range....problem solved at little if no cost Also, check your earth straps from the battery to chassis, chassis to engine and also gearbox as these break and can cause strange faults Finally look for vacuum leaks which can also cause the engine idle to hunt
  5. Its always satisfying to resolve the issue and carry out your own repairs, thanks for letting us know the outcome
  6. Most manufacturers have a substantial paint warranty period so worth pursuing it with Nissan UK as the car is new enough to be covered I would think
  7. Its worth pursuing as a private claim if there is no group which is already challenging the issue with Nissan Do a Google search to see if anyone else is pursuing it and maybe it may sway the dealership decision with some financial assistance to resolve it Alternatively you could try to find an independent transmission specialist who may know the issue and the modification to repair the gearbox
  8. Maybe the wiring has broken where it runs through the tailgate to the vehicle body Sometimes the wiring can break in this way as the movement of opening and closing does this Check the integrity of the wiring between the two areas
  9. Sounds like it may just be a breather and if its not leaking any fluids then maybe thats it
  10. This may possibly be the solution, let us know if it works for you
  11. Trevor

    Ecu

    You would have to get a new ECU, immobiliser ECU, possibly instrument panel as well so may not be financially viable to repair it
  12. It could be that one is a passive (analogue) sensor and the other is an active (digital) sensor The two wire (analogue) sensor probably won't work with your system and if the old gearbox is still around then try to recover it to fit into your new box
  13. The wiper arm will be tough to remove as it is on a taper but if you gently wiggle the arm side to side down the bottom end by the screen it will come free
  14. Not entirely sure which ones they should be but if going to get new ones from Halfords their tablet in the bulb aisle will state which ones they should be
  15. You'll need to remove the door card to see what has dropped off. More than likely a linkage has become detached
  16. More than likely if there is a port to attach an aux lead you can run it through the dashboard somewhere
  17. Its the pollen (cabin) air filter cover Just reattach it to the area below the glovebox (you'll need to lean under the dash to see it) Seems like someone didn't reattach it properly when they replaced the filter
  18. It probably won't have a USB now as mostly everything is streamed via Bluetooth from phones nowadays
  19. It could possibly be the seat pre-tensionser (seatbelt stalk) connections that need looking at Usually happens when moving the seat back and forwards to a different position
  20. Hi....welcome to the Club Nissan made some great campervans over the years and used worldwide
  21. I have one similar to yours in my car and the aux port is around the back of the unit so I guess you have to run a lead to it behind the dash possibly Mostly everything is run through Bluetooth nowadays
  22. Ah glad you found the fault....they usually make a 'farting' or 'hissing' sound when they are splitting but definitely a cheap repair to make
  23. I would be careful not to break into any wires or connectors that are yellow in colour as they would be for the SRS (side airbags and pretensioners). Best to backprobe each wire and see where there is power and where each one goes (e.g. power, seat adjustment, SRS, etc)
  24. It would be necessary to take the wiper blades off and also the rubber seals and the rest just undoes with screws and pull up to remove Have you also tried compressed air down the jet (does clear the muck but unless the hose is removed then it just sends it down the tube so best to disconnect it beforehand
  25. I think the vehicle should take 2.5" spacers and when the weight it down on the shocks then it should be fine....only one way to find out though 🙂
