How To: Nissan X-Trail T30 Fuel Gauge Fault-Finding
Просмотров 72 тыс.3 года назад
Nissans in general are notorious for failed or inaccurate fuel gauges. The reason, for the most part, usually lies in the tank. Some models (such as this, the T30 X-Trail) will have two level senders that then talk to the gauge in the instrument cluster. Failure of one or both of these senders usually leaves you hanging out to dry, quite literally. This video gives some insight on what to check...

Troubleshooting Engine Cooling Concerns
Where do you take spare parts for this turbo ?
Did you make a new line for its connector?
From Ghana and I must say you have saved me. Have been looking for a solution for my Nissan Note 2009 Model Automatic gear box. The heat exchanger keeps failing thereby introducing coolant into the gearbox and also the radiator. I saw your video and discussed with my mechanic. He loves what you have done, and I am getting the same for my car.
I have a qashqai 67 plate. I locked the car last night and it was absolutely fine. Went to the car this morning and on the screen on the dashboard, it was showing that the boot was open. Checked the boot and it’s shut properly, but the car still thinks it’s open. Tried opening and closing it numerous times, car still thinks it’s open. Theres nothing blocking it, the car just thinks the boot is open when it is definitely shut. Major problem is, as the car thinks the boot is open, the doors won’t lock with the fob. I’ve managed to lock the car doors with the actual key, but that doesn’t lock the boot.
Hi can I ajust the screw if my idle is high still after relearn procedure
Nice info! For both the faulty fuel gauge and the manual overide tab... Been wondering what that 'ka-hole' was for 🙈🤭😅
That roumd white plastic thing you have in the white plastic pot where does it come from? Mine fell out whilst replacing my switch I have no idea where it fell from. Thanks for you video. Diagnostic yool directed me to a faulty swith and then you video helped with location and access. 👍
I have the same issue on an HR15 could, could it be the position sensor is not sending back pedal position signal? Secondly how many volts did you use to test the motor?
What did you use to clean the carbon buildup on the swirl flaps?
Hi, this floating parts separate available from shop?
The 2L diesel will eat this
What component inside the aircompressor keeps the air pressure from leaking out the rear valve when its off? I bought an ebay compressor and it pumps up, but doesn't hold air. The new replacement one I received does. What can I fix or maintaince in the defected one? Air check valve? Where is it?
You never know
Thank you so much for uploading this video. It saved me $759, this is exactly what Nissan asked me to pay here in Sydney, plus 2-day wait to get a new locker from Melbourne. I declined it and I am sooooo glad I did. The problem with my locker was a tiny piece of plastic that stuck inside preventing the motor from spinning. As soon as I got it out, everything started to work as expected. NISSAN Service didn't even investigate what the problem was. I am so happy I stumbled across your video. Thank you once again!!! All the best to you and your family!
Ima cars starts up faster than an ice car
Can you install a Nissan march and where are you located
Hi hi sir I have the same problem and I've checked the motor and clean the connections it's working properly but when I reconnect it it doesn't work and the boot light is working but the boot doesn't it's like there's no power in the boot switch or maybe it's the fuse ?
Nice vid! Chwi chwi mainly saves us from these nasty boys who want to harvest car parts
How can i reach you
Thank you.
that was one of the best explanations I've seen. thank you Shame you didn't do the resistance test just to show how to do it.
You really shouldn’t make videos of fabricated information when you have no idea what you’re talking about. This isn’t a feature exclusive to IMA vehicles for whatever made up reason you just gave. That’s just a feature that was introduced as a convenience, which also helps reduce starter wear for those who hold it too long causing premature wear. I have an 08 Acura TL, 2010 Acura TSX, and a 2012 Honda Odyssey, which all three have this feature and are not IMA vehicles. Smh 🤦🏾♂️

how do u achieve 26km/l?
Where are you located
do we drive AUTO or 2WD better fuel economy?
2WD of course
After being plagued with this problem for a long time, the answer actually turned out to be simple. Exactly as Mista found and after I replaced both sensors, still this exact same gauge problem persisted. Even bought a second hand cluster from the wreckers and fitted it. Same problem. Then I found this simple procedure to re-calibrate the fuel gauge and finally fixed!!! Follow this. Hold the odo button down and turn the ignition on. Wait 2 seconds, then press the odo button 3 times within 5 seconds holding button in after 3rd press. Turn ignition off. Turn the ignition on and voila!!! Gauge reading perfectly. Will see if this holds.
you push odo/trip button? on xtrail T30?
Work on t30?
Do you have a video with instructions on how to remove and replace the locking mechanism from a Nissan dualis j10 2013 or similar? Mine stopped working the other day and I'm trying to work out if I can fix it or replace it myself or if i should take it to the mechanic. I've been looking for instructions online with no luck so far
Clear like anything. Thank you

Hello I have a nissan cube with the same Trans which line on Trans is the in and out put line ?????
Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge. My guage lost precision when the gas tank is full... your video will help me ;)
Mine can't be trusted below 1/2 tank. I broke down without fuel and my gauge still reported 1/3 full
Where can I reach you?
Need help please ,how can you arrange the buckets/valve cups if you forgot to mark them
How much is the after market cooling system
Nice work! What spring hose clamps and mount kit did you use? I don’t trust the worm gear clamps as those often cause leakage. I read reviews on both Dorman and Hillman spring clamps were made of cheap weak steel so I am thinking of Denso/Toyota brand but they don’t seem to sell those along.
I would use the hi psi stainless fuel line clamps, maybe evil energy brand
Great video, I’ve got the same issue, will use this tip, 😁👍
what bolts hold the lock in..m5 10mm..? cheers
Nice tutorial. Does this work on a 4afe head? *Update: It does, I just replaced all the valve seals on my 4afe cylinder head by using this method*
Very informative........ keep up Lobsta..God send techie
Instead of that, I wish Honda would’ve just put a button to start the car
I wish you were in California so I can have you as my tech. I really appreciate your thoroughness and using data. Nice work
Thanks! This video helped me get the boot of my dualis opened after it jammed and possiblely fix it enough to suffice until i can afford to get the mechanism replaced.
