    brake line rust prevention

    I know a few people who have had that happen, even when the coating was put on by the same garage that MOT'd the car which boggled my mind There's just not much you can really do about it, the cost of safety is regulations placed on people who are playing by the rule book too If it were up to...

    brake line rust prevention

    It will be some sort of bonding rust sealant, I'm not sure what the orange one is I'm more familiar with something like POR15 which is black - the reason for it being orange is so they can see where it is applied more easily, the reason for it being shiny black is just because it looks better if...

    A day in the Life of a Fire Engine Red K11

    Also curious about the card on the keys, has to be an immobiliser of some sort, maybe an older version of the modern day wireless keyfob (the one you just throw in the cupholder and the start button works when the fob is in the car) As for the environmental stuff, it's all rubbish. The...

    A day in the Life of a Fire Engine Red K11

    I miss having a driveway and the use of my elderly neighbours garage, unfortunately we moved and she died :( We're really limited for space in the UK unless you're fairly well off. I've said before I am jealous of those in the USA who have enough land to park 30 cars out baking in the bright...

    A day in the Life of a Fire Engine Red K11

    You'd make good money buying economical write-offs and putting in a few hours each on them with your skill-set People are too happy to scrap anything these days, Could quite easily fix them up, use them for 3-5 years and in 5 years those parts will be worth even more than they are now vs...

    I messed up my 1 week car. Please help. K11 1.4 SRI

    It will be easier to assess the damage once you've used a wirewheel to clear out the rust, but it doesn't look too bad - perhaps all it needs is the rust removed and some paint over the top As long as the metal is still strong it should not fail - if you think about it, a sill with holes in...

    Injectors for GSX600R Throttle Bodies

    Have it towed there? You'd be looking at 300-400 though If you could rent a truck and drive it there on that you'd save some money

    Audew Air Horn - fuse keeps blowing!

    I bought one of these once, never managed to fit it The issue is that while they draw a continuous current while operating, to start a compressor there is a massive surge The fuses have to be rated for the surge current, the wire you can get away with slightly thinner but if you use it a bunch...

    Washer issues

    If the blockage is ice, this would explain it - as the car warms up the pipes thaw Consider getting screenwash that protects down to -10 celsius and run it through and see if that solves the issue Otherwise it does sound likely to be the pump from what you described

    K11 Starting Issues - Ideas Appreciated!

    They do flood, typically happens when you start it and turn it off without driving it anywhere (or only moving it a short distance like moving carparking spaces) and then leave it overnight in winter To get it going again you did the right thing, pull the fuel pump fuse, turn it over for a...

    Handbrake handle

    it's molded plastic, slides off the front over the button, but there's usually some sort of tab holding it on so it doesn't come off accidentally Very awkward to get to, usually on the bottom. Can't say for sure on the micra I haven't had mine off

    my petrol flap is sticking

    I vaguely remember someone saying not to use wd40 inside the keyhole, because it will attract dust/dirt and stick again a few months later... but I can't remember what the correct thing people said to use is. Can anyone remind me?

    High biting point?

    It's not always high because it's worn out, the high-set clutch that I had when I got the car 10 years ago is still in it and shows no signs of giving in just yet Driving instructors should teach how to do handbrake turns and everything because god knows that's the first thing I attempted to do...

    First Micra and heads battered.

    If you aren't certain what coolant is in there and need to top up there is a kind you can buy that can be added to either types of coolant, I'm not sure what it's called but most stores have it if you ask Otherwise you have to do a full flush and take all the hoses off

    Diagram for march tail lights

    with rarer car parts I tend to have more luck asking "does anyone know someone who has X" than waiting for people to list them for sale, a lot of people don't like listing things that could take a long time to sell to the right person who wants it because then they have to constantly tend to it...

    High biting point?

    he's telling you how to get some wheel spin going ? If you set off by popping the clutch from all the way down to all the way straight up at 6000 revs it won't matter where the biting point is it'll shoot off like a rocket don't crash

    heater matrix problem

    okay 1 is inside your glovebox, it's the air intake if you set it to recirculate air rather than outside air 2 is your cabin air filter, it's inside one of those black vertical voids that pulls out 3 is the cable that attaches to the slider, that decides if the air is coming from outside or...
