What type of gasoline should be used for the Nissan Qashqai?
2 Answers
Nissan Qashqai has a fuel tank capacity of 57 liters, and the manufacturer recommends using 92-octane gasoline. For safety reasons, the engine must be turned off before refueling, and the fuel tank cap can be opened by pulling the fuel tank cap switch. Nissan Qashqai refueling process: Pull the fuel tank cap switch located in the control area on the left side of the steering wheel. Unscrew the fuel tank cap. After removing the fuel tank cap, place it on the fuel tank cover. Then, insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel tank. Begin refueling. When the fuel nozzle is automatically cut off for the first time, the fuel tank is full. Continuing to refuel will fill the expansion chamber of the fuel tank. Do not remove the fuel nozzle immediately; leave it in the fuel filler neck for 5 seconds to allow any remaining fuel to drain into the tank. Fuel tank cap switch method for other Nissan series: The fuel tank cap opening button is located below the left side of the driver's seat. Pull the switch to open the fuel tank cap. The fuel tank cap can then be opened for refueling.
After driving a Nissan Qashqai for several years, I find that using 92 octane unleaded gasoline is the most suitable. The engine of this car is designed to adapt to this regular fuel, which not only saves fuel but also protects the components. Driving in the city, the power is sufficient and economical. Using higher-grade 95 octane gasoline doesn't bring any additional benefits and may even cause carbon deposits or increase expenses. Remember to regularly check the fuel quality and fuel gauge to avoid damaging the engine lifespan with poor-quality fuel. As for maintenance tips, the Qashqai is quite sturdy. Check the fuel filter every 10,000 kilometers to ensure it's clean and efficient. This way, driving is both reassuring and worry-free.
