These injectors dont fail often, there must be a cause that they failed You should check the fuel filter for iron particles If iron particles are present, likely the hpfp has failed Sorry for bad english 🤣
🎉 we have to give Thanks for human like you who always save a Nissan Qashqai from going to the dumps. Thanks brother for sharing your knowledge to we as a young mechanic 🎉
Another great video Baz, Just like some others who follow you, i am not in your trade, but thoroughly enjoy the time and effort that you put into your content. My motto is..every day is a school day...and your videos certainly fulfill that 👍
I know 2 people who have had Qashqai 1.5 DCI engine failures. One had a new engine under Warranty, the other failure was hidden away by the Dealer and he never saw it again. They gave him a Demonstrator replacement instead. Before that a neighbour's 1.5 DCI Renault was written off after an Engine runaway meltdown.
These k9k engines go for a looong time. The most common reason for dead injectors this soon is giving it the beans immediately right after a cold start.
It’s a long time since I worked on motors, I won’t be working on em anytime soon either but I enjoy watching you work and I’m learning all the time fabulous content matey. 😁👍
Top man Baz awesome work as usual.Guaranteed lesser garages would of played parts darts with this one.Shame at that mileage and 1 year out of warranty.
@@lovingCarzwell at least their petrol engines are better than the diesel or am I wrong 😂 I know the only problem I hear about them is the timing chains but otherwise they’re solid
With or without diagnosis equipment, and from watching you and Jimmy, there has always been and there will always be parts swapper's and so called technicians with no skills, research capabilities or the ability to think logically. We are stuck with these people.
I had this issue on my 2011 Qashqai+2 1.5dci last Xmas eve when the car suddenly lost power on the motorway and the engine fault light came on. I managed to limp it off the motorway and connect up my Topdon diagnostics scanner which told me there was a fault with injector 3. I limped it home and waited until the local parts store was open after xmas where the first thing I got was a new fuel filter thinking it was 3 years in the car and needed replacement. After fitting that, the car still had the fault and so I removed injector 3 which came out very easily despite the car being 12 years old and 220,000 miles on it. I took it apart and after an overnight soak in Wynns dpf cleaning fluid, I cleaned off the parts and reassembled it. Popped it back into the engine, primed the fuel system and hey presto, it started and ran sweetly with no faults. Luckily I didn't have to buy a new injector for it as they're pricey little beasts. I've since cleaned the remaining injectors the same way and fingers crossed, there have been no further issues. I'm probably on borrowed time with them but I'll be changing the car shortly and so my "fix", has gotten me to the finish line with this car.
I must be watching a different video to you lot. I've never seen any injectors come out that clean !!!!! The new ones look worse than the knackered ones. Christ, the power of blue Peter. Here's a few we removed off camera. 🤔
Do you honestly think I've staged this video, or made it look easier than it is? If the jobs hard I'll show it if it's easy I'll show it if something breaks I show it
I had a Qashqai with the 1.5Dci K9K engine which I used in my business for towing a trailer. The car did 118K miles before I sold it. No major issues at all. I did service it every 9k miles, and changed the cam belt at the correct intervals. The K9K is a better engine than the 1.6dci which had timing chain tensioner issue at 60K miles. Fortunately didn’t cause a catastrophic failure!
@@Lexusman65 in construction engines Perkins it will run trim codes are only for emissions and make no difference how does the ECM know what figures you put in
@@Lexusman65 I think if you dont code them makes no difference how does the ECM and injectors know there are wrong numbers in the e-prom I think if you just fit injectors and drive the car no issue the motor trade want you to go to a garage Baz has always coded them but has he fitted them and got the customer to drive away never to be seen can anyone tell me brake cleaner works every time only thing it does not tell you what injector is bad but if 2 or 3 is bad then the rest wont be far behind
@@scotspie501douglas7 One diesel specialist said: It is imperative that coding is done with accuracy because fuel delivery and injector timing will be tailored exactly according to the properties of the injector that the ECU will think exist from the code it has been given. Using general, broad codes or repeated codes could inform the ECU of the wrong set of properties for that injector such as incorrect nozzle opening time, nozzle opening pressure, and injector timing. The resulting engine performance will be poor including high fuel consumption, lumpy running, and poor high NOx emissions. It is advisable to perform coding after testing an injector to know that all its measurements are within tolerances and that the resulting code will contain that established information
@@bazmeredith maybe the owner tanked petrol instead of diesel once, and drove it till it stopped. And now the fuelpump is damaged and there might be some metal pumped to the injectors, causing the injectors to fail.....
