Using a small flathead screwdriver, remove the plastic screw cover located in the center armrest, then unscrew the now-exposed Torx screw. Next, remove the side clip of the door (the one accessible only with the door open).

Now, removing the panel is quite simple, although it may take some time: you just need to pry with a flat screwdriver or a plastic wedge between the panel gap and the body, gradually detaching it until fully removed. Once successful, disconnect the internal cables and you're done.

Goodbye!

How to Reset the AdBlue Warning Light on a Nissan Qashqai

Hello everyone! Today, I will explain how to reset the important AdBlue additive warning light on your Nissan Qashqai. Reset via the dashboard menu: turn on the car and ensure the instrument cluster is active. Scroll through the menu until you find the option “Service” or “AdBlue”. Select the “Reset” option and confirm. To top up the AdBlue level, open the tank flap and use the supplied nozzle to refill the AdBlue fluid with the engine off. Once the car is turned off and back on, the warning light should disappear if the refill was successful. Good luck.
