Nissan Qashqai 1.5 e-POWER battery longevity
You may notice some drop off on efficiency but then this is hard to calculate over time as it depends on weather, type of road being used (urban, motorway, etc), ambient temperatures, traffic and so many other factors that I would worry too much about it and maybe part with the car if you do notice some serious deterioration to the charge and output rate

no, but worth shopping around the dealers to see what there prices are, most dealers tend to differ in cost

BCM Battery Drain
Great to see someone using the correct method of diagnosis to determine an electrical fault Unfortunately, the remedy is pointing to the BCM which doesn't make it a pleasant pill to swallow with the cost of a new one. I do wonder if there is any water ingress to the BCM or indeed if the earth leads are in good condition throughout the vehicle (have come across similar issue with Nissan's before)?

Doors
Sounds like the linkage has dropped off internally but getting the door card off in-situ now thats whole other problem

Was there anything that caused the initial lock-up? driving on a dirt track? anywhere a stop could have been introduced into the braking assembly?

Certificate of conformity for 2007 micra imported from Ukraine
I'm not sure about cars coming in from the Ukraine but imagine it is the same process for importing cars worldwide into the UK. If its over 10 years old it doesn't matter about certificates of conformity as a lot of the Japanese or US imports don't have them I once helped to import a Hummer H2 from Dubai into the UK and discovered that if it is over 10 years old the process is completely different to that of a younger vehicle. It just needed the headlamps converting, lighting from red to amber and an MOT, that was it....a very simple process. There is plenty of information on the DVLA website including the forms for registration that you need, beyond that nothing else was required

Car play
Could be that the audio (firmware) upgrade required Be worth talking to your local Nissan dealer considering the age of the car it should be covered for this sort of fault

Need help with this problem
Does the engine run or misfire? I would measure the resistance of the injectors and they should all be approximately 16ohms After that I would advise to check all power leads (12volt) and all earth leads from the battery all the way to the injectors Have come across fouled wiring (running across engine or gearbox and chaffed through) and connections that have caused this code before and not an issue with the injectors
- Please Help

DPF
There should be one that will illuminate if the DPF needs regenerating but not usually one if it is naturally regenerating. You may notice the temperature increase and plumes of dark smoke from the exhaust if it is occurring

Navara Clock Spring?
You could try these companies for SRS components: https://airbagteam.com/ https://www.airbagservice.co.uk/ or eBay where you might see one pop up

4wd / 2wd
Its quite common if the transfer box has not been used in a long time as the linkages and mechanisms get sticky Best bet is to find as many opportunities (not difficult at this time of year) to use it and it will free up eventually

Looking for a Nissan GURU :)
Hi....welcome to the Club There are so many Kei cars around so its hard to determine which one you have seen Try this selection of Google images for the likely culprit https://www.google.com/search?q=nissan+kei+cars&rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB830GB831&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjsmMW-xd38AhXEoFwKHXYgDOkQ_AUoAXoECAEQAw&biw=1422&bih=773&dpr=2

Radio Code
Hi, is it a standard Nissan radio or some other make (e.g. Sony, Panasonic, etc) ?

Dpf
The throttle body assembly may need cleaning, quite easy to remove and clean with Carb Cleaner and reinstall. Alternatively, you can reset the Throttle with a scan tool and also worth checking the throttle pedal connections to ensure they are clean and secure All of the above can affect the idle speed which may be what is occurring.

Reversing Sound
It may be that the previous owner had the function switched off You could ask the dealer to reinstall the function via the scan tool but this would cost Chances are it has LED lighting, if not then I would fit a bulb with a reverse beeper built in https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2499334.m570.l1313&_nkw=reverse+light+bulb+with+beeper&_sacat=131090

Key stuck
Battery condition is my first thought, if discharged then this can be the fault Ensure the brake pedal is fully depressed if not then the pedal switch may be faulty. Also applies to automatic transmission selector switch (try running through the gear selection to see if this affects it)
