There's a spray you get called something like electrical contact cleaner. That's prob the best one to use.

Jason, I just replied to your other thread.

Would that be the sensor that measures the pressure of the boosted air between the intercooler and the engine intake? Update: Just done a Google and I think it is. Look here at picture E:, probably the easiest part on the car to find and remove :D.

Jason, If you're asking how to remove the EGR, take a look here :).

5854 or 1854 David.

Possibly the bearings at the top of the struts? (Dunno what they're called, the ones that allow the shocks to turn as you steer). They were dead graunchy on my dad's previous 'rolla but he never did let me change them for him.

Agree dude, I'm on my second k12 and I absolutely love them. Diesel ones especially ;).

Cheers mate, I update it whenever I do another job on the car. I'm back with Just Host at the mo so should be good for a while :-).

Excellent advice. Get the bluetooth dongle on ebay and download the Torque app and read any stored codes.

Cheers Joe :-). If you ever get the chance to deal with X9 Internet, don't bother...

1793 minty :-).

I paid £80 to fit a set of Spax springs but that was 10 years ago. Would do it myself now though, not a big job.

I've finally managed to get my site re-hosted! www.micrak12.com :).

Nice K12's! Particularly like the green job - is that yours or the wifes? I have a K12 Micra website that should be back online shortly after a bad host induced absence of a few months. All sorts of how-to's for the K12 :-). Will post when it's up...

I used to have a 160SR but the only mod's I ever did were grooved discs with Green stuff pads and a K&N panel filter. One thing I did notice when I removed the exhaust mani heatshield was the exhaust manifold is welded stainless steel with individual branches and the tubes were barely an inch in...

Thanks R-reg, certainly quicker than the official method :D. I like the diagram!

Cheers buddy :-).

I've just washed a large oily patch off my intercooler and can see one of the tubes has a large stone dink in it that's obviously blowing oil mist out. An intercooler is fairly cheap on ebay but it would be a lot easier with no bumper :confused:...

Pretty easy job as long as you can borrow a rattle gun to get the top nuts off. There's a how-to on my website but unfortunately it's gone because of a useless hosting company :-(.

Alex, the turbo is a small Borg-Warner unit. There's a company in Blackpool in the UK that does rebuild kits (including an 'enhanced' one) and they should be able to post one I'm sure :-).
