The error code P0380 refers to a malfunction of the glow plugs. The activation of this error code via diagnostic testing indicates the need to replace the glow plugs in the Nissan Qashqai.

To perform the replacement, open the bonnet and remove the engine cover. The recommended glow plugs for replacement are "Beru GE110" or Bosch 221. Under the cover, you will already see the glow plugs: using a glow plug removal tool, remove and replace them.

It is important to check and replace the glow plugs not only when the error code appears but also during regular servicing.
