After looking for what seems like an eternity i have finally found the spec, colour i wanted.

Has done 24k and is a 2018 plate, i think it has every factory option going, the only option i have noticed it does not have is the memory seats.

All for the bargin price of under £15000

Last service was in March but wanted to give it an oil change, is this oil ok to use? Mobil 1 FS Formula Advanced Fully Synthetic 0W40 Engine Oil - 5 Litre 5425037864961 | eBay

Also the puncture repair kit is missing, could anyone link me a suitable replacement, more photos soon.

Cheers, Bob

Looks fantastic,

I had a similar problem, turn out the tyres are runflats so no need for the gunk...check the tyres...

 

[Red Bob]

Yeah fronts are runflats but the rears are not so thought i had better get a repair kit as doubt i will use run flats in future

 

[mzm70]

Good point I need to check all 4 corners have them, I don't think I even got a jack

 

[Red Bob]

No jack in mine as well

Hi Red Bob, congrats as that's a nice find with the car, what spec? I guess Sport city black maybe? Looking forward to more pictures soon when you have time.🕶
The oil you have chosen will be fine. You need 5.6 to 5.8ltr with a filter change for info so maybe 5ltr with the old oil filter not changed?
The MB oil for the M270 engine you have, World spec says #W-40, Euro spec says #W-30. 🤠
Same car, same engine. Infiniti serviced mine with x-40 and then Nissan used x-30.
Oil is like coffee, we all like ours slightly different, so no worries, is your preference.☕

WRT the tyre / jack / pump issue. Spare wheels and jacks got binned by the manufacturers a while ago now so their economy figures would look better on paper ☹.
I bought an inflator that's sits in the factory boot well and a traditional repair kit without slime / gunk for plugging holes. Again my preference as I dont like the runflats on Devon and Cornwall B roads 😣 and I will go for non RF tyres when replacements are due too like you said also.

Plenty of these type pumps on ebay?

All the best. Cornish 🖐

Hi Cornish,

The spec is only listed as a Q30s 2.0t AWD Intouch, but like i say the only upgrade that it's missing is the memory seats, has the sports seats, pan roof, sat nav, reversing camera, surround camera, etc etc.

Cheers,

Bob

Nice looking car, roof rails look great on it. I had the same problem figuring out what I had Mine is the q30 premium city black and with the chrome handles and silver mirrors yours looks much the same. the attachment may help figure it out. good price as well for an AWD I think

 

[Red Bob]

Thanks for that Martin,

From looking i have,

Interior design pack
City Black + keyless entry, purple key insert
Safety pack
Tech Pack
Comfort: Glass roof with electric sunshade
Bose sound system.

Think thats it from that list

 

[Martin's]

Your welcome Bob, it took me a week to figure mine out. I have 1.6 manual premium, City Black with Tech pack. if you have keyless entry do you also have push button start? if not its a mega easy upgrade I have just done mine. I bought item number 164351570173 on Ebay and you just push it in where the key fits and presto push button start for £16-00 have a look at you tube link

Wow that is super easy, noticed one was in the glove box with the locking wheel nut, last owner couldnt of been a fan.

 

[Red Bob]

Really happy with the wheels as well, i think they completley change the look of the car. Just really hard to find sadly

 

[Trackstar]

Looks a lovely car for sure, similar to mine which is the luxe model. Mine has the park assist which I think is quite unusual. Frightens you to death the first time you use it LOL. I changed my run flat tyres for normal, the run flat tyres are quite noisy on the road as they have stiffer side walls.

Totally agree, you have a nice combination there. The silver roof rails, mirror caps and wheels all add to the appeal to make a classy two-tone premium look.

Oil change is all done, question for you guys though, do you find it hard to read the level on the dipstick?

My one has a brown end and for the life of me i cannot see the level, I have put in 5 litres but do not want to top it off until i can get a proper reading.

Hi Red Bob, well done for checking. Clean the dipstick with paper towel and use a torch and make sure the brown level guage is bone dry. Insert and check on level ground with torch. You possibly need to add more oil. Engine takes around 5.5 to 5.8 litres with filter change matey
