What brand and type pf tyre do you have, cheap tyres slip easily, good tyres are worth the money

Not sure, I think it came out an earlier qashqai

The usb power on ours comes from the nissan headunit, and it is very low power, less than 500mA from what I read

Thanks, I know how a conventional system works, was just thrown by it appearing to be fine every time the bulbs were checked. I found the real fault, dirty connection on the earth pin on the plug to the lights. Moving the connector created an intermittent fault. Cleaned up the pin and all good...

I had sorted the dimly flashing with the earth wire on the loom at the connector. It's a heavy wire in to the body right beside the lights. What was now concerning me was if the return earth wire from the lights somehow acted as the bulb fail detect. I doubt it, but can't think of what would...

Bit of an odd one, randomly the indicator flashes fast as if a blown bulb warning is there. Every time we check all the bulbs are fine. I've cleaned the bulb contacts and still randomly it was doing the fast flash. MOT time a few weeks ago and it failed on rear sidelights changing brightness...

I was talking about the K12, still takes 5 minutes, I've done it every year for the past 5 years..... It's really not that much trouble compared to other cars I've had, live the vauxhall v6

No, the implication was that if you are dumb enough to skip some part of servicing you might as well go the whole hog.

In that case dont bother changing the oil or filter too, that's save you another small pittance compare to the value of the car.

It takes about 5 minutes to get into them on a typical micra, and I'd rather have fresh plugs every year.

what corroded nuts and bolts?

Usually the motorfactors will give you the right one from the reg.

If it's a proper autobox, then a lot of oil will stay in the torque converter when you drain it.

Both rears done at the weekend, took longer to work the drum off that change the bearings.

I would have thought someone must have changed it in the past,

Got an advisory that the sump has rusted and oil is seeping through. I can get a new sump off ebay, but there's no gasket, it's a sealant job. None of the sumps I've seen come with sealant, so what's the recommended sealant for the sump?

I've got a press and done bearings before. Seems it's one front and one rear. I was out in the car recently and the rear is noisy. I dont see the car that much as it's my kid.s

I'd go to nissan. You dont know the exact spec of the bolt, and it's a critical component.

These are the front, both still factory fited

We've just had an advisory on the MOT for slightly noisy wheel bearings. The car is still under 80k miles, that doesn't seem a lot for a modern car. What's the average life for K12 wheel bearings?
