Has there been reports of the 1.6 Qashqai losing power like the 1.2?

You already have reports of loss of power on 1.2-litre DIG-T Qashqai. I am now getting the same on a 1.6 DIG-T. Has it been reported on the 1.6 as well?

I've logged that, but you're the first. I have not actually had many direct reports of problems with the 1.2 TCE or 1.2 DIG-T engine in Renault, Nissan or Dacia, but, for legal reasons, I only record faults directly reported to me, never anything anecdotal or from forums or other websites. I think the problem with the 1.2 is piston ring related.
