  • how stable is the drive shaft on the Nissan Primera Bj.98 P11

    Hello guys, a friend of mine has broken the left drive shaft for the second time in 15 months after 20 tkm, the workshop claims the old man (68 years) had driven so brutally… but I know he’s driving like a grandpa…. Have you also had to make such experience with the left drive shaft in this vehicle.

  • No badge Nissan Primera P11 Traveller

    Horrido! With our Nissan Primera Kombi P11 from 1999 about 160,000 km it did not work with the main examination on the weekend. Unfortunately. Well – I found the DEKRA examiner (was probably there a holiday representative – I have never seen the guy there) was relatively pingy. Windscreen wiper blades looked at, first-aid kit he wanted to see, warning triangle (I never had to show in life at a main examination), life jacket. Is grds. correct and he does also only his job. uch safety-relevant defects like brake and threshold. I allow myself to adjust the list of defects here with my questions. Maybe I can be helped bit by bit here. Would be happy about this. First aid kit defective (running MHD) – new purchased finishedfixing brake effect not sufficient, parking brake uneven This concerns the hand brake at the rear left which does not work at all. I don’t know what’s going on – for the rest of the brakes he had nothing to me ckern. I think this has to be looked at in peace by my colleague who has a clue about it. Schweller left back rusted through, threshold right back corrosion weakenedThis has to be flexed and welded. Thick plates druf and good is. Headlight cleaning system left and right without function.We have the Xenon headlights. #1 Is the headlight cleaning system fed by the windscreen washing system? I found no other container. Therefore it can only be like this. #2 The Xenon Clean ungsystem works via a manual switch and not via the “normal” disc cleaning system = lifting on the steering wheel – correct? When I press the button on the left of the steering wheel one hears clearly the motor pump – but there is no water. Is there still a fuse and where is the pump motor or the connecting hoses for the Xenon headlight cleaning system? in? The examiner has still said that the Nebler lights up too low on the left. Can I set the net myself – must probably make a workshop? Here nearby there is no Nissan dealer. But ATU we have. Thanks and Gruss Christian

  • Brake gets hot on one side

    Hello have the sufu used, but unfortunately found nothing that helps me further. I changed the brake blocks with my traveler 1.8 back.I still have the old ones on it.Out of ignorance I only tried to press the piston until I have noticed you also have to turn it, so the piston completely turned in blocks changed, and since the rear left only the brake is always hot. when I take the car I can turn the wheel but, but is a easier to remember . the question is losing worn out brake discs your unbalance which actually push back the blocks something? or could the brake rope lever not go back completely, is there a marking at which you can see where this lever is on the saddle at the end stop? guides for the blocks are all clean and greased. I think if the piston was tight you can not push it back, so I think this must be another problem. do you have any suggestions? thank you already i M forward

  • Engine malfunction indicator flashes yellow on my P12

    Hello friends, something always seems to go wrong, unfortunately!! I was surprised that my 1.8 Traveller combo suddenly has such a thirst, well I find the 10-12l consumption a little too much. And constantly I try to drive slowly, but it didn’t help. And this evening suddenly a yellow indicator started to flash, to which it is said in the instructions: fault indicator. Another explanation in the user’s manual to the car says it could be the engine control unit That is also responsible for consumption and for acceleration etc…. At the ADAC I learned that this is a lack that the seller must fix in any case (I had bought the car 3 weeks ago – EZ 2003/116 PS). Actually I had to go to a NISSAN workshop to confirm the damage and then to the dealer – and it will certainly cross the border….naja Has one or the other already had problems with it. t and if you have to pay it yourself, how much can it be?? Greetings and thanks, Jumbo_747

  • Nissan Primera (P11?)

    Hello I’m thinking about getting Primera Comfort (P11 I think ) It’s supposed to cost 250€ It’s built 01.2001 has 153000 Km down A 1.6 L engine with 106 HP It has ABS, El. window lifter 4, El. immobilizer, light alloy wheels, power steering, xenon headlights, central locking, air conditioning automatic no sliding roof front, side and other airbags I wanted to ask how robust is the engine and how expensive is the maintenance of wear parts etc. ? he swallows so? So real with normal driving mode! No bang gas ride. Where are with him the weak points? where you should look? And he has Xenon dipped light. How is there so the illumination and brightness? I drove to jetz only halogen pays himself Xenon? And does he actually have a timing belt or a control chain? And how would the changing intervals of timing belts and control chain? He stands at the dealer who would give me 6 months warranty or warranty. Thanks to all the di e can help me

  • Grinding in the engine compartment

    Hello dear community, I bought a Nissan Primera 2.0 Bj. 99 (190.000Km). Today I noticed an abnormal and irregular “grinding” from the engine compartment. I was also today at Nissan and asked if this would have happened with the steering chain. The answer was: – Highly unlikely – A torn steering chain would not be known to him in this model – I guess a grinding at the water pump or similar. Now it is leather that if the steering chain is broken, On the internet I have already learned many cases about the tearing of the chain and that it is not so rare, because Nissan probably would not have installed a special good chain. Jetz I do not know exactly whether it must always be a “crack” that shows the signs of a weak chain or it can be a grinding noise. Which in my opinion sounds from the moter on the left (if you are standing in front of the car). The noise is not constant, sond I think it’s rather irregular, but most of the time it’s the clock of the engine. It’s hard to hear at high speed, but I mean that the interval increases with the speed. The car’s checkbook is well maintained and therefore always (until 2012) examined by a Nissan distributor. They would have to have noticed that until now. My questions are now the following: – I’m not very dependent on the car, only if it could be the chain, how high is the expectation equal Tomorrow to tear? – What are typical signs before the ultimatum: Chain crack? – What do the materials cost and what should everything be renewed if you could do it privately and it really is the chain? I hope I find someone here who might know what I mean and hope that I have expressed myself as precisely as possible. I am very grateful for every hint!

  • Primera P11 – Quiet, undefined polishing

    Hello everybody, I have a Nissan Primera P11 1.8 limousine from 1999. The car now has 130tkm on the clock and I am very happy. What annoys me every now and then is an annoying, undefined quiet poltern. I have tried to locate the poltern several times, but so far without success. I have the impression it comes from the front right, then again from the back … that makes the troubleshooting of course extremely difficult. It is also not so that it louder on uneven roads. I can drive on the worst field and don’t hear anything. Then comes the smallest floor shaft and it gets worse. Regardless of the speed. Now I wanted to ask if you might have a tip? I already checked the following: – Spring breakage – Oily shock absorbers – Exhaust clamps. Yesterday I greased the rubbers of the stabilizer rod. In addition, I sprayed every joint and bearing properly with WD40. change. It can of course be anything and nothing, but before I change shock absorbers, crossbars, coupling rods or dome bearings I would be happy if any of you have a hint or tip. Thank you, Grüße Team M3
