Used Nissan Qashqai Coil Pack

Coil packs are ignition components found only on petrol engines, so whether your Qashqai has one depends entirely on which engine is fitted. The Qashqai has been sold with both petrol and diesel engines throughout its life, and the diesel variants use a compression-ignition system with no spark plugs or coil pack at all. If your Qashqai is a petrol — for example running a 1.2, 1.6, or 2.0 petrol unit — it will have coil packs; if it is a diesel (1.5 dCi or 2.0 dCi), you need a different ignition-related part entirely, so confirm your fuel type before searching.

The J10 and J11 are entirely different platforms with different engine families, so a coil pack from a 2007–2013 J10 is very unlikely to interchange with a J11 from 2014 onwards. The engine code is the decisive factor here — even if two engines have the same displacement on paper, the coil pack design can differ between generations. Share your exact engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check) with the breaker so they can confirm compatibility rather than relying on year alone.

Trim level makes no difference whatsoever to coil pack fitment — Acenta, Tekna, N-Connecta, Visia, and any other trim badge are all irrelevant because the coil pack follows the engine, not the specification level. What matters is that both vehicles share the same engine code, as that determines the coil type and plug configuration. You may find cosmetic differences between parts pulled from different trim cars (such as brackets or covers nearby), but the coil pack itself is engine-specific, not trim-specific.

The engine code is the single most useful detail you can give a breaker, sitting above year, trim, or even generation when it comes to matching ignition parts. You can find it on your V5C registration document or by running your registration through a VIN check service. For petrol Qashqais, codes such as MR20DE (2.0 petrol J10) and HR12DDT or HRA2DDT (1.2 DIG-T turbo petrol J11) are examples of how differently specced engines can differ — always quote the actual code to the breaker rather than just the engine size.

The J11 Qashqai ran from 2014 with a mid-life refresh arriving in 2017, and while the engine code may be the same across that facelift boundary, ancillary and mounting changes can sometimes occur mid-production without being obvious from the outside. As a result, whether a pre-facelift coil pack crosses cleanly to a post-facelift car is something you should confirm with the breaker against your specific registration, rather than assume from year alone. Providing your engine code and full registration gives the breaker the best chance of supplying a directly compatible unit.
