How did you get on with this? Did your HP comp reclaim?

We are having the exact same problems. Nothing but issues since we got it 2 years ago. After various faults that have cost £1500/2k so far to fix. We have just paid £2K for a part for the gear box that nissan have installed - They broke another part in the process of fitting it.!!!! Now the computer is saying it wasn't that, that was the problem its something else! This has been off the road for weeks now loosing money as it is tracked out as a taxi!
We are stuck with ours and will approach nissan now for solutions.

Hi problems with Nissan Primastar as well ours is leased, sale of goods act we have been advised to hand it back as not fit for purpose. Only 29 months old when gearbox failed but 67,000 on the clock Nissan offered 20% (as good will) joke. We only have 6 months left as if we will pay out 2000 (after 20%) now.
Have either of you had any luck, feel like there is a cover up as no real reports shown on internet yet everyone knows how bad the gearboxes are!
Renault changed same gearbox in another van at 76,000 no problems.
Nissan are the most unhelpful customer services I have ever come across.

You bought a FREEKIN Renault. What did u expect, reliability? Renault now owns Nissan and many loyal Nissan owners having experienced numerous failures with their Nissan /Renault vehicles vow never to buy a Renaukt or a Nissan again. Perhaps u should do the same and stop throwing good money after bad. Wise up and buy from a reliable company like Honda and Toyota. If your dumb enough to reward Renault's crappy quality with your hard earned cash, then you're the fool. Sorry but someone has to tell it like it is.
