Snap! (Two shopping trolleys side by side) ? :rolleyes:

The grey plastic arm looks like the siphon lift arm part of a toilet cistern flush operating mechanism? Where is the rest of the mini porta-loo somewhere? :rolleyes: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Picture%3B+siphon+lift+arm+part+of+a+toilet+cistern+flush+operating+mechanism

About 6 years ago I had to dig myself out of a money pit of my own making when I bought a tidy looking 13 year old K11 on 75K at the local car auction for £380 with a New MOT. As soon as I drove it away the clutch was working ok but the clutch pedal/cable needed muscles like Disney character...

For me following the long established economic principles of “Bangernomics” for 30 years, there can be no sentimentality with money pit liabilities (cars), only pragmatic commercial awareness to minimise losing & wasting hard earned money on tin boxes on wheels that will be quickly forgotten as...

For myself:~ Quote: “I would look for another K11 in good running order for less than that” One of the most significant advantages of K11 “bangernomics” motoring is the easy option to find another in good running order for less than the price any major repair job that is not fun to do & or...

£500 for a clutch? They are having a giraffe. I would look for another K11 in good running order for less than that.

Happy fault finding good luck. PS; I just remembered that the speedo instrument binnacle/ PCB is digital security coded matched to the NATS immobiliser system therefor not interchangeable without security recoding. Therefore best option is to carefully repair the existing speedo assembly...

Well known K12 electronic fault fixable with open circuit fault tracing & a soldering iron or a replacement PCB from a scrap car. The choice is yours? Reference; https://www.micra.org.uk/threads/faulty-turn-indicator-on-instrument-cluster.14283/ ;) Reference;

As always, do the simplest easiest solutions first. That’s the way to do it. :)

Just spry it with penetrating oil & feel the difference. ;)

Easy answer is to just buy 1300 or 1400cc K11. Search due diligently until you can find one in good well maintained OEM condition that has not been messed about with by previous owners. NB; coil packs have a little extra power, less than 5HP to compensate for being significantly heavier...

Na. Looks like it has been trashed by an infantile five year old? Modified upgraded into a SUV; ( Seriously Ugly Vehicle ) Where are the SUV K11 Micras now ? :rolleyes:

The gear linkage swivel pivot points can dry out & function may be improved by lubricating its moving parts that can be accessed by removing the heat shield above the mid silencer. Double check engine & gearbox rubber mounting brackets that are old enough for any one of them to have sagged or...

Well said you make my point eh? You also may; Quote; never have any use for the superfluous Foxwell male jewellery that would sit unused on the gadget shelf. Mine is a 1998 1300cc ( OBD one ) & just keeps going in its twenty third year of trouble & cost free service, no need for waste of...

Mr Fahrenheit said ~ Quote; “upgraded to this foxwell nt680 pro which covers everything on a car, cost me £180” I could buy another K11 Micra in good running order with a long MOT for that much Wonga & never have any use for the superfluous Foxwell male jewellery that would sit unused on the...

Nissan design engineers set up & matched the ignition system for optimal operational performance with the OEM specified NGK plugs for normal road use as the K11 was designed for. Therefore why waste time & loads of money buying very long life plugs that are not suitable for the ignition system...

Your 2002 K11 will be OBD 2 with 16 pin out data connection test point outlet and if it’s running right from the get go, then you are most unlikely to have any issues other than simple routine annual servicing for which I have never needed a fault code reader in 19 years of driving ancient old...
