Hi Roger,

It depends on which model year your Qashqai is. I looked up the earlier version and though 5W-30 is correct, C4 is recommended as it has lower ash content. However, C3 is recommended on the newest 1.5 dCi engine in the Qashqai.

To be sure, come back to us with the model year of the car and, if possible, the engine number.
