Ys23 engines
Not so sure it will be that simple I would ask the local scrapyard if they know (usually quite knowledgable about what fits what) as there may be subtle differences that would be hard to get resolved

Warning "PRESS"
Press the brake pedal or clutch pedal to start the engine possibly ?

Engine Oil for 2014 Note Petrol 1.2L
It is more important to use the correct SAE specifications for the choice of oils to use....e.g, Nissan specification rather than the viscosity. You can use the Castrol oil selector app which states the correct grade but you may need to dig deeper as to the best specification https://www.castrol.com/en_gb/united-kingdom/home/car-engine-oil-and-fluids/motor-oil-and-fluids-finder.html

Timing Chain Advice Please!
I would start with resolving the oil consumption issue. This would hopefully sort any issues with noise from the engine. Maybe also research the different oil grades you can put in the engine and maybe run a heavier weight of oil (e.g. 10w40 instead of 5w30)? As long as it is the SAE specification for Nissan engines

Rear bumper - do parking sensors come as a factory option
Have you managed to get some sensors fitted? Aftermarket reverse sensors are quite effective and there are several companies that will install them cheaper than the dealers would charge

1990 urvan 4x4
Hi....welcome to the Club Not sure where to start looking for a manual to be honest I owned an Urvan many years ago and didn't have too many issues with it at all, except for corrosion of course. Not sure what the 4WD was derived from, Patrol possibly?

Hi Tim....welcome to the Club I really like the Murano, think they should have stuck with that shape for other model designs Feel free to jump in answering any questions (especially about Nissan parts) if you would like to? Good to have you onboard!

Steel bumpers
Maybe worth locating one in a scrapyard (no matter what condition) to offer it up to see how different it actually is?

Qashqai e-power
🙂 I have no idea why it is like that but I'm sure the boffins in Nissan had their reasons, I too would also like to know if anyone has the answer?

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

3rd brake light sticker for QQ 2007

Servicing costs Nissan Note e power in Australia
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

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
