    Crank and Cam Sensor Location

    Great to read that you got everything sorted and I bet it was worth all of the effort when it was up and running. My Micra isn't too bad. It still takes a couple of turns of the starter motor to fire up the Dci engine but I have gotten used to it now. The clutch is still high but the chatter...

    Crank and Cam Sensor Location

    I know, did seem a bit excessive at the time but I managed to go through the same about of petrol in their courtesy car, brand new Honda Jazz which was very gutless compared to a Micra DCi, and not pay for it so I wasn't too annoyed.

    Thank you for your comment and the wealth of information. Glad that you wrote about your rpm as I was a little worried that mine is a bit high but it seems normal. I will have a look at the things you have mentioned plus I am going to plug in my obd2 sensor and try a few apps that offer live...

    Wow! A massive thank you for taking the time out for the reply above I really do appreciate it. I still have some time on the 3 month warranty I have when buying the car so i am going to book it in today to get it relooked at and in between the time I book it in and the time they will want it...

    Crank and Cam Sensor Location

    Thank you for your comment and concern. I will get them checked straight away as I know there is an issue there and it has already been in with the Honda dealer with them checking it out and saying that though the clutch is a little high it is ok. I have a feeling that I was being fobbed off a...

    Crank and Cam Sensor Location

    Thank you for your comment above, a lot of the service items should have been changed before purchase but I will check them out to see if all of them have happened. My computer indicates 58-60mpg, even driving 70mph on a 200 mile run it never goes above 60mpg, so I still think there is an issue...

    Crank and Cam Sensor Location

    Thank you for your reply, I really do appreciate it. I will probably take it to a garage as my knowledge of clutches is a bit non existent. The old dirty diesel has only done 47,000 miles and have only purchased it 3 months ago with the last owner only doing 1,000 miles in the last year...

    Crank and Cam Sensor Location

    Hi everyone, I have a 2010 Micra 1.5 dci n-tec and I was wondering if anyone knows if it is easy to locate both the cam and crank sensors as I am thinking of changing them myself or is it more of a job for a professional mechanic? Also just one other question, my clutch has a fairly high biting...

    Is it me?

    I will have to get in touch with the dealership and see what they say regarding my lowish mpg as the Juke is a heavier car than the Micra and it does seem that they have the same engine but yours has a little more poke but in theory, I should be getting more miles per gallon. Thank you for...

    Is it me?

    Thank you for your comment and that’s why I was questioning how much mpg my car is currently doing on the motorway as 50mpg is definitely petrol territory whereas diesel should be way higher.

    Is it me?

    I would agree but it has used the exact same amount of fuel for the 230 mile trip to Birmingham and the same 230 mile trip back to where I am in the North East of England. Saying that though it might be the reason as looking at the MOT history some years it has only done about 2k miles which is...

    Is it me?

    Thank you for your reply and the great advice on offer. It was serviced just over two weeks ago by the Honda dealership where I bought it from so I am hoping that they would of followed a fairly high standard of servicing, but saying that you never know with main dealers. The recent drive...

    Is it me?

    As an update just topped it up and for 234 miles it needed 20litres of diesel. Which works out to be about 50mpg (using imperial litre to gallon conversion) which on just the motorway seems a little low to me. The other thing is that the clutch biting point is quite high, would that be a...

    Is it me?

    I have just recently purchased a 60 plate micra 1.5dci ntec with only 45k on the clock and after a 230 mile trip it used half a tank of diesel does that sound the right amount of fuel used? I kept it at 70mph or just under and the revs were just a little over 2500. What do you all think?
