Dan the Man. Wow, so much info for a newbie to the Qashqai, much appreciated. I am currently working my way through your videos before I collect my 2016 Tekna on Wednesday. Better than a manual any day. This is extremely helpful and I think I am right in saying that everyone appreciates your hard work. Judging by 0 thumbs down.
I got my Qashqai e-Power last week & when I saw 500pg manual I thought it must be in different languages. But shock horror it's English & we really do need to read it, as it's very complex, too complex really. Alarms cant switch off, You are doing 31mph, bee baa bee baa..
Thank you so much for this, I was struggling for ages trying to replace a fuse through the small access panel at the back of the glove box. I found this video and the job was done in less than 10 minutes. Thank you.
Interesting video. I have 2022 Tekna Auto and I don't find the sat nav all that easy to follow. Any chance you could do a video on the updated system or point to where I could download the manual (my car is on lease and nothing was suplied). Thanks
Hi Dan great video ! Any idea on how to turn off the predictive text? Sometimes when I try to enter an address it will knock off a lot of the letters and I can’t put in the destination I’m looking for. Thanks
Cheers Dan......I've had this car for 2 months and I'm sure it's going to take me 2 years to get my head around all the gadgets it has! Keep the video's coming buddy! :)
2018 QQ tekna. Is there any way to change the colour scheme of the sat nav? We had a honda hrv and the sat nav seemed so much clearer snd easier to see. Thanks
Dear Dan , I am looking to buy a used 2019 diesel qashqai 1.5dci engine car , but i am a bit nervous about all this adblue system and the menus and other tech thing , I have a honest question would you recomend this car , My only concern is adblue syatem the rest normal wear and tear would be in any car , please help and ofcourse will join the club
I drive a 2017 Qashqai 1.5. I get no warning when I overspeed even though I have the setting at On and Beep. What could be wrong? Thanks for all your help.
Hi mate we juts bought 2018 qashqai got two issues first navigation not working properly soon as we press start navigation. it go straight to destination Second is feeling bit vibration and heavy chuch any help will be appreciated 🙏 Thanks
@@TheQashqaiGuy I once asked the dealer about the update. He told me it would cost €150. Then I asked how new these maps were, and he told me the update was 1 year old. €150 for maps that are already 1 year old, that's a waste of money. With Tomtom I get updated maps every 3 months, no extra fee.
Yeah the dealer prices are crazy. Like I said, if you did want to update the onboard nav, ebay is the place to go. They're roughly £30 for the latest official card. But of course if you find your to TomTom works for you, then stick with it ☺️
Hi Dan.. Just a quick note At 8m.22s Speed warning for cur..... Is actually Curves not current.. When approaching a bend in the road ahead or "curve" it warns you with a beep. Great work on here and the QQ forums by the way.. I always post your clips for advice. You need to do a pollen filter change video as everyone always struggles with them by doing them the wrong way.. Cheers...
Yeah I worked out it's curves by the beeping at me when we were driving through Welsh country roads 😅 Thanks, I've just had the pollen filter changed as part of a full service!
Hey Dan! I'm a follower from Sri Lanka; and I love all these videos. I just purchased a UK Domestic Qashqai J11 2018 that was imported to Sri Lanka. Is there a way for me to load a Sri Lankan Map into the Nissan Connect system? Or a way to get the Google Maps app running on the system?
@@TheQashqaiGuy thanks Dan. Mine didn't come with either sadly. Did you do a video of your boot by chance? My boot has this fixed shell which I think the tools were supposed to be stored in but it's empty. Wondering what yours look like. Ps. Your videos are a life saver btw.
Have you had the issue off the sat nav/radio cutting out? mines driving me mad it cuts out and then reboots. Nissan want to charge £99 to look at it, they can bugger off its a known problem that requires a free software update apparently.
That's the dealers trying to con you. Call Nissan UK customer services, Google it. They should give you a code or reference number to get the dealer to do it free of charge.
Quick question, Our X Trail makes a rather loud quick triple tone beep (high, low high) with no dashboard warning. It does not sound ominous, more like friendly. It makes this beeping randomly, even with the radio off, though the sound appears to come from the speakers. I noticed that when we arrive home it invariably makes that beeping. Could this be to let us know that we have arrived at a POI?
@@TheQashqaiGuy thanks mate. Will give it a check on the weekend. But the rattle sounds more like its coming from in the car/dashboard rather than in the engine bay area. Will defo have a look though!
Hi Dan thanks for the video mate , can u pls tell me if I can change my head unit on my 2008 qashqai 2wd and upgrade it by putting a sat Nav head unit with the gps box from a later qashqai, will it plug and play or do I have to get decoded to work ? Thanks pal 👍
@@TheQashqaiGuy thanks mate , yes u can get aftermarket ones but I was looking to keep it all Nissan original , I’ll keep doing my research thanks pal 👍
@@TheQashqaiGuy sorry to pester u Dan would it be fair to say if the 2012 model is j10 and 2008 is j10 it should fit into it , wiring should be same ? 🙏🏼
HEY. I have somthing you probably dont know. If you open the rear doors. There is a lever at the door. This diseables opening the door from the inside.
Hello mate. My daughter has just purchased a 15 Qashqai,same model as yourself but we have found that there is NO memory card so we now have to go and buy 1. Now me not knowing anything about these I was wanting to ask you if there is any specific memory card that fits or do all the memory cards fit all. Hope you can help, cheers

Hi Dan. I have recently bought a 2018 Nissan Qashqai n connecta. Came across your channel. Great vids and really helpful - thanks bud.
Dan is absolutely amazing, has helped me so much to understand how everything works. Thank you
Really useful info Dan, thanks for taking the time to share
I see George's lane, being from notts originally I know it very well 👌
2018 QQ tekna. Is there any way to change the colour scheme of the sat nav? We had a honda hrv and the sat nav seemed so much clearer snd easier to see. Thanks
How can it redirect you if there is a accidant or road block.
Is it connected live or following gps or radio traffic info.
hi caqn you please tell me if you can input destination by co ordinates
Hello, I have a Qashqai 2016 (J11) and I don't know how to make an update of Navi. Maybe, you can help me out? Thank you
Hi see my other videos for an update guide
Does it have appel car play?
Not my system. The connect 4 system does.
The touch screen on our car has failed. We can still work the system using the knobs. Is there a fix for this? Thanks
Not that I know of. Have you tried resetting it? Hold the power button for 15 secs
Hi..my maps are outdated and sending me into fields and dead ends 😂..how can I update the maps please someone ?😊
Dear Dan , I am looking to buy a used 2019 diesel qashqai 1.5dci engine car , but i am a bit nervous about all this adblue system and the menus and other tech thing , I have a honest question would you recomend this car , My only concern is adblue syatem the rest normal wear and tear would be in any car , please help and ofcourse will join the club
Adblue is used on lots of diesel cars now and seems to work with very few problems. Main thing to check is for a good service history.
I have an Aug 19 qashqai and it's a dream of a car. Absolutely marvellous and I recommend it. Hope you go for one
Thanks Dan the man you’re an absolute star! 😊💫
I drive a 2017 Qashqai 1.5. I get no warning when I overspeed even though I have the setting at On and Beep. What could be wrong? Thanks for all your help.
That's odd. 🤔
I think you need to set a speed limit to get the warning. I just realized the option showed in this video is actually "speed warning for curve"
Hi mate we juts bought 2018 qashqai got two issues first navigation not working properly soon as we press start navigation. it go straight to destination
Second is feeling bit vibration and heavy chuch any help will be appreciated 🙏
Thanks
Check to see if there's an update available for your unit via WiFi. As for vibrations, maybe get the wheels re balanced or alignment done.
Did you release Sat Nav (Part 2 - Maps) yet?
I had to buy a Tomtom because the maps in the Qashqai satnav are obsolete and don't know any road that was recently built.
It may be worth buying a newer sd card for your system.
@@TheQashqaiGuy I once asked the dealer about the update. He told me it would cost €150. Then I asked how new these maps were, and he told me the update was 1 year old. €150 for maps that are already 1 year old, that's a waste of money. With Tomtom I get updated maps every 3 months, no extra fee.

Hi, how do you find out which Connect system is in the car? It's a Tekna 2016
If it's a 2016 it'll most likely be the connect 3 system with the SD card slot next to the cd player
@@TheQashqaiGuy
Super, thanks Dan. I wanted to update the maps but was unsure of the system, cheers.
How do you update the maps?
If you have the SD card slot next to the cd drive then you can buy a new one from eBay or nissan.
Hi I'm clueless lol how do u know which one to get. I have a 2016 1.2 Ntech+ . Your videos are brilliant 👏
Is there way to display speed limit on Sat nav?
I think it does if it knows the limit whilst you are navigating.
@@TheQashqaiGuy thanks. I tried to find the option but can't see it. Can you advise please where its available.
I'll have a look when I get chance, the wife is out in the QQ today.
Have a look in the nav settings
@@TheQashqaiGuy no rush. Please let me know once you get chance. I will also have a look and update if I can find it.

Hi Dan. Did you car come with a spare Tyre and tools?
Mine just has the repair kit.

I did a boot tips one but didn't show the underfloor area. Maybe in a future video.

It could the the tight corner overspeed warning?
@@TheQashqaiGuy thanks Dan, could be. I am going to do some tests. I'll let you know. Nobody else has a clue, not even Nissan!
Sounds silly but if you have a tight 90 degree bend in a country road nearby, approach it a bit quick and see if it does it.
Does anyone have an annoying rattle/noise coming from the passenger air vent area? Driving me mad!
Hi bud. Check your air filter box, it's a common rattle point!
I lined the edge of mine with stick on foam which fixed it.
@@TheQashqaiGuy thanks mate. Will give it a check on the weekend. But the rattle sounds more like its coming from in the car/dashboard rather than in the engine bay area. Will defo have a look though!
Hopefully it is the air box, it was for me and it sounded like it was behind the dash

I'm not to clued up on the j10 model. I know that you can get some aftermarket units with inbuilt sat nav on eBay and Amazon.
@@TheQashqaiGuy thanks mate , yes u can get aftermarket ones but I was looking to keep it all Nissan original , I’ll keep doing my research thanks pal 👍
Sorry I can't be of much help
@@TheQashqaiGuy sorry to pester u Dan would it be fair to say if the 2012 model is j10 and 2008 is j10 it should fit into it , wiring should be same ? 🙏🏼
Yeah j11 came out 2014
So both should be j10. I'd have thought the wiring will be the same but obviously can't guarantee it.

Hi bud just make sure it's compatible with your system. Pretty sure yours will be a connect 3 system. eBay is best for value.
@@TheQashqaiGuy Aww thanks a bunch. Okikoki will go and look for 1, Many thanks again mate.Tc now
My nav not working 🥴
Very interesting
Hi
I don't know if you've covered (or know) this... I haven't watched all through all of your (great) videos 🙂
We've the exact same model, a Tekna trim as yours, albeit a 131 hp 1.6 dCi.
We had a serious problem with the navigation system that was growing worse by the week. It actually gave us wrong directions, started off in other countries and finally just frose completely.
Being a software developer I thought the system would have some sort of factory reset, which it actually has.... buried somewhere in the menus. That didn't work however, so I tried pressing the "sound system off" button for a few seconds. Didn't work either. Then I held it down for like 10 whole damned seconds... and... it _actually worked_ !!!
The system took quite a long time 10-20 seconds maybe, but it came up running again, and it really worked.

Oh wow, no I didn't know that was a thing. Thanks for sharing.
