Hello, to all!
I have exactly the same problem in my 2014 qashqai 1.5dci .I have always noticed that dead spot but never paid any mind to it till today. With either 3d or 4th gear in at approx 80km/h and around 1900-2000 rpm the car stutters like theres no tommorrow. It feels like its about to run out of gas. Pass that point and its fine. Having said this, I also have a piggy back ecu from a UK based company. When this ecu is attached and working, this dead spot is GONE. No stuttering or shaking!! Like someone else mentioned if the car is being driven around town a lot , like I do. It needs a once in a while full throttle on open road. My observations have been that while driving a round town trying to be light on the accelarator, the car becomes even more slugish and hesitant. If anyone has an update please post your finds, as I am very curious to see what the dealers have to say or do about it.
