Nissan have cancelled nissan connect so no apple

Hi I have a 2017 np300 I can shut the tailgate go for a drive and come back and the tailgate on the lhs will be loose , not enough to come open but loose. I've also noticed that the clearance gap is not even . See pics. Any advice is much appreciated.

Hi, I looking at moving up to a 2018 on 90k from a 2012 v6 on 166. Are the newer engines good for mileage? Is 90k too much or could they do a lot more. Tia.

All my v6s were Outlaws with diesel engines, very reliable and powerful, as many have said the engines bulletproof. Im retired now so don't need to use for work just fetching and carrying taking kids to and from school. Carrying odd bits but never " working" as such. I know I will notice a...

I have a 12 plate v6 and I'm looking at changing, I love the v6s , I've had 3. I want people's opinions on the np300 as I've been looking at them. Someone said the 16 and 17 autos are OK but after that they are rubbish. Does anyone have any info on why they are not reliable. Its either another...

Ok thanks lots to think about. Can you help me with this ...when I turn ignition on this comes up flashing and stays like that until I press little button and then it goes toilette and spanner still flashes.

No I haven't but will book it in ASAP. Will keep you informed. Thanks.

It's a 2012 v6 auto. Starts fine bit lumpy in the gear change when cold but ok ish when warm. Revs up n down sometimes for no reason. Plus can take ages to change up.

Not recently about 3 months ago, had a highway dab radio attached to stereo but it has screen antenna .

Thank you for reply, I have lost power and the gears don't see to settle right it revs its head off for no reason and is using diesel so I'm thinking it's number 4. Another thing thats happened twice today is when driving cluster lights went off dials went down for about 5 secs then came back on...

Hi guys anyone know why my service light is on with and without mileage, also cruise light comes on but doesn't work..this happened after I had it mapped. Guy who did it said he had never seen this before.

A guy I always use checked it for me. He is by no means a atf guy. He did show me oil on his fingers which I rubbed on mine and it was clear and smooth. What other signs would I see if the oil is low.

Hi guys, sometimes when I go to put off in 1st gear my d40 will hesitate then jerk into gear. Not all the time just the odd time. I have checked oil in box and its clean and full. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
