heap of shitt.anything that involves Renault is a disaster.

We have two Nissian primastar vans both are chiller vans both done 140000+ miles. After a year on the 56 plate the chiller broke down and can not be fixed because of the way they have been fitted. The 07 plate chiller just about works when it's cold out side!!! Every time we take them in for a service or a problem at the Nissian main dealer it always costs between £1500 - £2000+ they never have any parts in stock!! The main dealer never cared after the warranty ran out!! on the 07 plate the back doors have never worked since they day we got it if the temp out side gets below -4 the 07 won't start, we have had so many problems the list is endless!! the sliding door came off once when pulling away in a busy city. The turbo broke on the 56 plate after 700miles from new. we are having problems with one that keeps losing power and the safty managment keeps cutting in. The handbrake cable broke twice on one van even after we recived a letter to recall the van back they changed it and then broke twice since then!!! on the 56 plate all the hydrloics went!!!! There seems to be patten because when we had a renalt master at the same time off bout 130000+ miles every thing started going wrong and since the engines are all Renalt we will never buy a van that has a Renalt engiane Fords or Mercs all the way from now on!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was driving on dublins M50 one night on the 20 may with a full load on board,i was just about to exit off the motorway when all of a sudden the useless van lost all of its power and died on the side of the road. the following day i brought it to nissan to find out what the problem is. the mechanic informed me tht the timin chain had snapped.its now off the road 5 weeks and counting.i have been told that there is no parts available in ireland, the uk,or in europe. what i dont understad is tht,nissan,renault,opel and,vauxaul all have the same engine and body panels. so why cant it be repaired.

2003, 120000 miles, I've owned it for 2 years and all its cost me is Mots, fuel, brake pads tyres!

Nothing wrong, everything works brilliantly, not a patch of rust anywhere, van flies, great fuel economy, regularly pulls a trailer, or large caravan when I'm working away from home.

Lovely van, and definitely recommended!

Done 115000 in mine only had servicing and mot to pay for . Used one set of brake pads as well. No rust apart from wheels

I have an 06 primastar. I am writing this review to warn people against buying one of these vans, they are totaly rubbish plus it's not a nissan it's a renult. The first problem i had was ocasionaly i had no power. It would start fine, but the acelerator wouldn't work, for about 5 mins, then worked perfect.They changed the pedal,that didn't work, then they reprogramed the ecu, that didn't work, it went to nissan to, they could fix it. They tryed a new ecu, still no joy, after countless other attempts it turned out to be a leaking injector. Nissan didn't find it, a man called diesel Bob, at ribchester, lanc's, did (top man).But this cost me thousands to find and get fixed. 10000 miles later clutch went quote from nissan £950, (thanks but no) managed to get it done by a friend for half that. Then 2 weeks later i was driving down a bumpy road, perhaps quicker than i should have been. Now the van twice as loud as it used to be, and most mechanics are looking at it in disbelief, one said it could be the big end. So it's looking like another expensive job. The only good thing about it is the ac, which most vans don't have. But i think i'll get a transit next and put the window down.

complete RUBISH, owned the van 3 mounths and its been in the garage five times, and guess what problem is still not sorted.
Nissan main dealers do not want to no just keep taking money and saying it must be something else every time if it is something else then why do they keep replacing parts that are not broken, because their idiots.
DO NOT BUY A NISSAN !!!

bought the taxi version of the primastar, £27,000. total nightmare,
semi auto box, four breakdowns in 2 years all gearbox.downtime a killer to
the pocket.do not buy one of these. of the 6 nissan taxis in town, all have
gearbox problems.now going down the route of getting h.p. company to reclaim as not fit for purpose.

had van from new have done 106000 miles and has been brillant van. has had a hard life so far is across fields and down rough road ways evey day covered in mud. aways washes to a shine. have fitted brake pads and discs and a antiroll bar plus tyres. will be having another one in maybe another year.plus is getting 35+ mpg weighting 2.2ton all the time.

you pay £17000 for van and its totally faulty.fuel econ is dreadful,paint falls off after 6 weeks and nissian dont care,they try to blame stonechips but after 1400miles thats a joke.the van is covered all over with paint falling off.try ang get nissian to do anthing is impossible as they dont want to know.try to charge you for your vehicle to be checked at £55 per hour plus vat to find there faults they know about as they have recalled vans because of electrical faults this month november 2009.come on nissian gat your act together and play ball.never buy any nissian vehiclee as we will replace our fleet in march 2010 with fords again.would have never touched nissian if i had known the problems that i would have had with them.stay well away from a bad built van.customer care is not there at all and you just get fobbed off.the warranty you get is not worth the paper its printed on.so you have been warned.also fuel econ you will be told that you have to cover 10000 miles before you get it.i can only manageb 26 miles to the gallon

first had wheel wobble then tyres faulty then wheel balance problems then pulls to left making my arm ache then has 3 callback faults now got another one saying the dash board wiring is faulty someones tacking the pi88 AND IT COST 15000 and nissan still cant fix it

Bought this Nissan Primastar van last year,absolute nightmare,have spent 4000.00 euros in 5 weeks,60000 miles, serviced 10000 kilometres religiously, nissan don't want to know, problem still not solved.

would never have bought a nissan primastar had i known it was a renault engine with a nissan badge. clutch and gearbox problems and now loss of power when driving.

STAY WELL AWAY! The name Nissan has been sold out cheap on this van! Go for a VW or Toyota!
