    what did you do to your micra today ?

    vacuumed the interior and got some upholstery cleaner and gave the seats a damn good clean! Looks a lot better :) Oh, I can vouch say a 1l Micra is no match for a 2.8l straight 6 200bhp German saloon (or estate)! Whilst it may have a lot less weight the 50bhp and torque isn't gonna to get you...

    what did you do to your micra today ?

    I guess it depends on the tax bands. For example, a Micra is currently £79.75 for 6-months but will become £12.69 per month which will be £76.14 for 6-month, £3.61 cheaper and payable in installments. The amount Government fee added for monthly payment is going to be 5% were as it is a 10%...

    From experience with other makes of car a stuck (open) thermostat would be the common answer or faulty sensor

    what did you do to your micra today ?

    From what I've read here, yes it's a straight swap :). Re the mk2 thing I've seen facelift often referred to as mk2 and also on eBay too. This may be incorrect - perhaps someone could confirm. New to the whole micra scene but having fun so far

    what did you do to your micra today ?

    bought a mk2 k11 rear wiper motor so the blade parks down and not pointing skywards - I just think it looks better! :)

    X Reg 1.0 cutting out woes

    I read the blue relay is common(ish) failure, and can be swapped for the one next to it (care that the connecions are the same). I had to do this on mine too. Now it car is up and runing ok you have, of course, put a duff relay in to the other circuit so my advice would be to replace the blue...

    Cross Member help

    At the front I assume? I read a few of these rust out, and yes, it can be replaced (mine's had it done just before the 2013 MOT) but make sure you find out how much and get the sale price reduced by the cost and some more for your trouble! Or go find another one.....

    Problems fitting Pod airfilter to K11 1.0

    funny that aftermarket filters was a recent topic of conversation on another forum I participate in and one guy posted this video link (hope it works!) which some might be interest in regards pod filters vs standard filters... http://www.youtube.com/embed/PAIxeQUSg-Q?html5=1&fs=1
