nissan Qashqai 1.5dci 2013. Hello we were driving on M20 when unfortunately the car lost power and couldn’t go above 15 mph , pulled over for a while then drove for another 1 minute and went onto hard shoulder , called roadside assistance. Thankfully waited just an hour to get towed to dartford services. We looked at engine and I noticed a small amount of oil on engine and put 2 &2 together and checked pipe noticing the break ,tried to do a bush fix no joy 🥲 Got towed to Norfolk I’m now waiting for the part to fit but I have repaired the part with superglue and drove about but the red engine light will not go out ? Is it just a matter of time before it does ? Or is there anything else I can do to get rid of it ? Cheers for any help on this matter .

"foxwell nt201" Pull the airflow meter plug off - run the engine - see if you get a faultcode for that - then you will know if yoru faultcode reader is working!

We see this quite often on Qashqai's (most of us carry the part)
1. Try reading the DTCs in Nissan/Renault/EOBD
2. The DPF is often restricted (live data for DPF pressure)
3. Any DTCs relating to glow plugs must be rectified!!!!
