Hey there, I had a pretty similar issue with my '05 Nissan Xtrail a while back. I'm not a car guru by any means, but I've picked up a little experience along the way. After some initial tinkering, I took it to a trusted workshop. Turns out the battery sensor microprocessor was defective. Cost me about 315 Euro to have it fixed, but it was worth it. Do you know the age of your battery? Also, has it been serviced regularly? Sharing these details could help us to narrow down potential problems. Hope this helps. Cheers!

Hey, thanks for the quick response. Last I checked, my car's battery is around two years old and I make sure to get it regularly serviced. My ride's current mileage is 64659 kilometers. Last service was done not too long ago but this issue started happening before that. I'll look into the sensor microprocessor thing that you mentioned. A little pricey, but if it fixes the problem, then it'll be worth it. Thanks again! Cheers!

Hey, Glad to help. That's cool that you've been on top of maintenance. Lot of people overlook that. With the regular servicing and the battery being just two years old, it indeed could be something else. It is true that the sensor microprocessor fix might seem pricey, but it did sort out the issue for my Xtrail. However, considering your battery seems weak and you're having trouble with cold starts, it could be a number of other things too. Like a failing alternator or a defective starter, so don't jump directly to conclusions. Your best bet would be to get a pro to diagnose it. If you do decide to check the battery sensor microprocessor, bear in mind that an incorrect reading can cause the charging system to malfunction, hence possibly leading to your symptoms. Safe driving. Keep us posted on your progress, yeah! Cheers!

Hey, So nice of you to provide these insights. Didn't think about the alternator or starter but that makes sense. I guess with cars, it could always be a number of things, eh? I'll definitely take it to a pro to see what's up. Will make sure he checks the sensor microprocessor too, your explanation clarifies a lot. Honestly, the more I can learn about these things the better. You never know when this stuff can come in handy, right? Appreciate the help and I'll let you know what happens. Take care. Cheers!
