The radiator drain valve on the Nissan Qashqai is located at the bottom of the radiator. The procedure for replacing the water and coolant in the radiator of the new Nissan Qashqai is as follows: 1. With the car engine cooled down, unscrew the radiator cap and open the radiator drain valve (located at the bottom of the radiator) to drain the coolant. 2. Insert a rubber hose connected to a tap into the radiator filler port, turn on the tap, and allow tap water to flow continuously through the engine cooling system. During this flushing process, keep the engine idling and continue the operation until clean water flows out of the radiator. 3. Turn off the tap and close the radiator drain valve once the cooling system is completely drained. 4. Add coolant to the radiator through the filler port until it is full. Unscrew the reservoir cap, add coolant up to the 'Max' mark, being careful not to exceed it. 5. Replace and tighten both the radiator cap and the reservoir cap. 6. Start the engine and let it idle for 2-3 minutes, then unscrew the radiator cap. As some air is expelled from the cooling system, the coolant level will drop; top up the coolant to the 'Max' mark again. 7. Finally, securely fasten the radiator cap.
