Faults:

There is a switch inside the car that can shut off the central locking that appears to have stuck, but I can live with that.

Apart from that, nothing at all. It's absolutely great.

General Comments:

Some may find the 1.6 engine a little gutless on a big car like the Primera, but it's fine for me: I'm into reliability, not speed.

Acceleration is slower than that of the Peugeot 405 turbo diesel estate, but they cruise at 70 equally well, and the fuel economy is surprisingly similar!

Nothing ever seems to goes wrong on a Nissan; this is my fourth and I'll never stray again!

Faults:

Just had the cam oil lines replaced.

General Comments:

The car is very quick for what it is.

Its got plenty of room for a 6 foot 2 frame and very nice to drive.

If you are doubtful of its service history please get the cam oil lines checked.

They tend to block and cause major problems in the top end.

Faults:

Knocking anti-roll bar.

Broken drive shaft (didn't see the big pot hole).

Faulty CV joint on the new drive shaft.

Rust beginning to show around the rear spoiler.

Engine has just developed an oil leak, but don't know where from yet.

General Comments:

This is a good all round car, whether you want a family car or a sporty run-around. I've made a few modifications to the car, the usual things - air filter, exhaust, lowering springs - but there are very few after-market parts available for this car - the exhaust was a custom job. The boot is huge, I've taken myself a four others the length of the country with lots of luggage without any space problems, I even fitted a two seater sofa in the back with the rear seats folded down. The boot is now filled with amps and subs with just enough space left for a nitrous bottle!

Faults:

Radiator fins dropped out. Replaced on 143000 miles.

Leaking water pump leaked. Detected and replaced at 143000 miles.

Worn rear suspension link.

Drivers electric window pops out of rail, but has never fallen out.

General Comments:

Surprising! To look at it's a little bit dull inside and out, but despite the fact it's a 1.6 it goes faster than a lot of 2.0 cars.

The handling is also sharp and I've never had the guts to go as fast as it requires to lose the front end.

Despite problems, it's been very reliable considering the mileage.

Faults:

The clutch went at109000 miles the Nissan dealer drove the car and said it was the gearbox £1100 for new one.

Crunching noise from near side, CV or bearings?

Track rod ends wear easily.

Creaky suspension bushes.

Beginning to rust badly!

General Comments:

Handles like its on rails.

Above 4000rpm its like a rocket faster than my brother in laws BMW 320i.

Faults:

Front, left upper suspension link worn.

Fuel pump, replaced.

Radiator, replaced.

Central locking, all passenger doors lock on their own, unknown fault?

Rear disks, replaced.

Head gasket blew at 15,000.

Car heater only blows air on the highest setting, No4.

General Comments:

This car is a delight to drive.

I have had a lot of problems, but I still love my car.

It is very comfortable and roomy.

Plenty of boot space.

The steering is firm and smooth.

Forward gears are easy to locate.

Some difficulty getting reverse gear.

Very hard wearing seat material, seats still look like new.
