New battery
It depends on the age of the vehicle but it should be fine to just fit and then reset the audio system security code if necessary Disconnect the negative first and reconnect the negative last Ensure you have the keys to hand then lock the doors and unlock (may take a few presses of the lock button initially)

2016 NISSAN QASHQAI Mk2 O/S Drivers Right Front Headlight
You can drill a few minute holes in the casing of the lamp unit itself - not enough to let water in but enough to allow air to circulate within the housing

Running really rough when warmed up
I would say, definitely start with P0301 as the misfire is causing the others to pop up Also the cam sensor could be the cause. Maybe because the timing chain/belt is loose/worn ?

wet floor passenger seat and behind front seats
If it smells a bit chemical then it could be the heater matrix that is leaking. Check that the engine coolant level hasn't dropped

Sat nab SD card
You usually have to visit the local Nissan parts department for a new SD Card with updated maps. Alternatively try Satnav Store as they do a cheaper version
-
Swivel Seats
You could try campervan sites as I know there are many companies out there that make bases for seats that do just that (Toyota Alphard for example)

Airbag light
Sounds more like a connector to the seat belt pretensioners under the seat. Try moving the seat to a different position with the ignition off and then switch the ignition on to see if it has cleared. If so the its the connectors under the seat

Stop start flashing after replacing new battery
more than likely the new battery needs programming into the car to recognise the new voltage settings

Broken timing chain
I'm not sure if the engine is safe once the chain has gone and chances are the pistons have hit the valves I would turn the crank so that the pistons are midway down the bores (remove plugs to check this is the case) and then I would turn the cam(s) cautiously to ensure there is free movement. If not possible on any of these actions then chances are it has lunched the engine

It will be quite a bit of money to replace the fluid (with the correct original spec fluid) and original equipment (or equivalent spec) filter Rough guess £150 to £200 all in

Nissan Qashqai radio locked
There is radio decoding software out there (and even Facebook has quite a few links to people who can supply you with a number) but either way you will need the serial number from the unit which means removing it from the dashboard (unless you have it written down somewhere)

Passenger airbag bag isolator
With the ignition switched OFF, insert the ignition key into the front passenger airbag switch, located in the glove box. Press the key and turn it to the OFF position. or also mentions that there is a switch on the passenger end of the dashboard which can be viewed with the door open

Nissan QashqaiFault
It could be battery condition if it is that old so worth starting with a test and replace if necessary Also worth checking all earth leads from the battery onto the engine and transmission back to the chassis. If any of these are corroded or broken that could cause the problem

Drives rough and while driving sounds like it’s choking and
Sounds like it could be leaking turbo boost pressure. Is there any splits in the intercooler, hoses or pipes.....usually accompanied by a wooshing or farting sound if split
-
High pressure fuel pump
I'm sure Eurocarparts or GSF or some other local motor factors could source an aftermarket pump or associated components Not sure of costs though but surely would be cheaper than the dealership

Help re my 1996 Nissan QX 3ltr SEL
Sounds like a vacuum leak from one of the hoses on the inlet manifold Check all hoses for perishing and leaks which you may also be able to hear as a hissing sound
-
Error code PO299
Split turbo boost pipe (usually a wooshing or whistling sound associated with this) or variable vanes sticking with carbon and need cleaning
