Is this a really good quality one....seems very reasonably priced?

Is it via their website or at their dealership?

Euro car parts points me to the same lion battery that was in my car previously. Exide premium is £110...just want to make sure that I get the best correct and best battery possible.

I spent £3500 on repairs etc from my Nissan dealership...I honestly wouldnt want to give them a single penny more after the terrible service I had

Hi Guys, Hadnt driven my 350z (05 plate) for sometime and the battery died. Got the AA and they confirmed it was guffed. It had a Lion battery in it and the chap said they have a lot of customers having issues with these batteries. He said that the battery I should be looking for is a JIS 005? Is this correct (thought I should ask the experts before purchasing) and if not, what battery should I go for? (top performance regardless of cost). Many Thanks Craig

I managed to get it working. Is that normal though to get the sparks from the negative clamp when you attached it to say the inside bodywork?

I dont know if I am doing something wrong but this charger seems to be doing nothing. My car battery is now completely dead. http://www.ebay.com/itm/272020876707

I bought that pack you suggested. Just waiting on it charging. Am I reading this correctly with the instructions? It says that the red + clamp should be connected to the + on the cars battery but the black - clamp should not be connected to the - negative on the car battery?

I quite fancied that one and it works on 3.5l engines?

Hey guys my 350z hasnt been driven in a few weeks and the battery has gone dead. Any recommendations on a good charge startup kit?

Well no one from the Dealership has actually called to tell us what they did to the car. They left a message on my voicemail saying that they have replaced the master cylinder. Thing is....what if I had already changed it 6 months previously and that I didnt want it changed. They should of called to advise of what they found and if I was happy for them to replace it. When I told the Service Manager previously that I wasnt given a courtesy car, he didnt offer it to me the next time. My partner contacted Nissan to give them an update and they arent happy. They are lodging a complaint to the dealership from their head office at the appalling service we have had. I need to find time to take the car out properly so I will do it on Friday and we will see what happens. Definitely a lesson learned by Nissan shouldnt be using dealerships that have no clue in fixing their brand of cars.

Hi Guys, First off, I came on here as I wasnt sure who to turn to for assistance. Believe me if I knew about Alex I would have went to him first. The issues raised with the car at Nissan I did authorise. Its basically a case of saying "yeah get it all done and thats it all sorted" but the main issue was the clutch pedal which needed fixed. Now I am sorry but I am not a mug. My trusted mechanic who was always very honest gave me the advice to check it with Nissan before he passed away. To be quite honest, having paid the £3200 for all the work with the clutch issue being fixed then I would have been happy enough. The issue is that they never fixed it. They told me the clutch needs replaced and thats what caused the problem. So paying for that should of resolved it and it didnt. I have then been flogged around with them telling me they have now done X, Y and Z....still the problem hasnt been fixed but yeah being quite cheeky to me about it. Then they finally hand me the car back in a dangerous state that they drove back to my house. The car is now back and sitting in my driveway. They called and left a message on my mobile (having been instructed to speak to my fiancee as I can never answer my phone at work). The car is basically bogging. Completely dirty, greasy hand prints on the inside and outside. They also placed the car keys inside my letter box but did not push it through so it would fall below. They did this the first time and they did it again. If anyone was watching they could of lifted the letter box and simply take the keys. I pressed down on the clutch pedal and it pops back out again (it does make a weird "kajoonk" noise when I press it down....that normal?). I will take it out a proper drive at the weekend. I think my issue is going to be directed straight at the dealership. I have no beef with Nissan themselves but if the dealership charge the prices they do and claim to be the experts with Nissan cars then they have that responsibility to fix the problem that they charged me for fixing. I think the keys in the letter box and the car being filthy is a slap in the face. Nissan do a complementary clean of your car when you get work done with them. First time I got it, it was clean, now it looks like its been raced on a dirt track. I will definently use Alex from now on but I will be pursuing the dealership head office for some sort of explanation to all of this. Cheers for the advice guys.

As I work 12 hours a day I dont have a second to myself. We heard nothing back today so my fiancee caught late this afternoon and they are replacing the Master Cyclinder. Apparently the master tech has been in contact with Nissan technical services all day to try and get it resolved. When my fiancee asked if that is definently the problem they said....and quote..."well we hope so as we have tried everything else haha". Fair enough they are not charging me for changing the master cyclinder but it does make me wonder why they charged me for a new clutch (with them thinking that was the issue). My fiancee was told the car may be back tomorrow or Wednesday. I guarantee you that the car will be running on fumes needing a serious petrol refill. I think I will lodge my complaint with the dealership. They "should" be the most experienced and be able to diagnosis and sort out a problem without any time wasting and thats why they charge more. This hasnt been the case. They have left me without a car, without a chunk of money, without a clue and without confidence in their work. They could of handled this much better but they seemed quite happy to take my £3200 promptly.

To make matters worse, when I can, I have to use my fiancees toyota aygo...........it has a 1 litre engine......1.......litre........engine. I think lawn mowers have a more powerful engine.

I am not going to let Nissan off the leash for this one. Either the dealership sort it or Nissan step in. At the end of the day the dealership need to ensure that the customers of Nissan are happy. If those mechanics dont have a clue how to fix this issue then the dealership may lose the Nissan contract (think arnold clark used to have the nissan contract but lost it due to many complaints). The funny thing is, when I spoke to the Service Manager I told him that I hadnt been offered a courtesy car (something that the Nissan customer service line told me I should of had) and I think that must be around 4-6 weeks now without a car to drive. I am actually hoping that they dont call me tomorrow. The longer they drag this out the more I have against them,
