What affects the price on a Nissan Qashqai
1.6 petrol (J11, 2014-2018)
Some 1.6 petrol HR16 engines develop timing chain noise, especially on cold starts. A rattle that clears quickly after start-up is a warning sign, and Nissan-specification oil matters for chain health.
Typical cost: Timing chain kit: £600 to £1,100.
How we work out these prices
We start from the national range for this job at UK independent garages, taken from our how much does a cambelt replacement cost guide, and use the band for the Nissan Qashqai's size class (SUV or crossover), because size, access and parts drive most of the difference between models. The Nissan Qashqai-specific figures come from our Nissan Qashqai common problems guide, which prices the faults known on this model. Your engine, gearbox, mileage and location all change the final bill, and labour rates in London and the South East are higher.
