Nissan Qashqai - 2007 2l diesel Qashqai - Poolielad710

I have the above car. The problem is when I am accelerating the car starts to shake, its ok till I get to 50mph, but when I accelerate more it starts to shake, I thought it was wheel balancing, but had all 4 done and still the same...... Soon as I take my foot off the accelerator, no matter what speed i am going the shaking stops. I was thinking maybe its the fuel filter, but I am guessing. Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like a misfire. Your engine management system should record these, and a code reader or scan tool (never used either) should say which cylinder they are on. Could be something like a coil pack failure (never had a coil pack either)

Hi, thanks for the reply, I have just had the engine up over 4000rpm why parked up and there was no misfire then.

Doubt it, the OP's car is a diesel.

Oh yeh. Missed that. Can’t see very well on the phone, though you’d think it would have spotted it itself. Isn’t it supposed to be smart?

Dual-mass flywheel ? What is its mileage ?
