    Cobra immobiliser

    I know this maybe not actual Micra specific, as an aftermarket alarm. When purchased my other Micra pre facelift in January, it came with 2 immobiliser dashboard fobs just like in the link below, no other fobs issued. https://cobracartech.co.uk/key-fobs-cases/touch-key.html Now, 1 stopped...

    K11 can they take E10 petrol?

    I almost accidently put E10 in today, local Tescos now have it on the forecourt, as the regular unleaded, so had to go for the premium unleaded at greater cost :rolleyes:

    Sunroof Lubrication

    Hi All In my new Micra the manual sunroof does retract & works perfectly fine, something I missed in my former K11! Going forward what is the best lubrication to use in the sunroof mechanisms, to keep everything ship shape?

    At last, I've brought it...

    Nice one that's low mileage. Honestly with these low mileage examples it is very reasonable motoring. I know what you mean about the clean, just got myself a new K11 to replace my old K11, this weekend, given it a full clean etc.

    I'VE inherited a k11

    is that 7200 miles or 72,000 miles that will have a massive effect on the price. What model is it, what engine, manual or auto CVT, 3 or 5 doors, MOT and condition etc. These things will play a part in the price.

    Metallic paint difficult to match in?

    Hi I have this damage on my N/S rear door, the Micra came with it, (someone done a quick patch up), I purchased the car for the mechanics (3 owners from new, 44,000 on the clock) but thought, as a DIY project to try and restore it back. A paint shop probably be in the region of £500-750, so...

    Hi Anyone used a car cover for their Micra K11? In my road I have to park under lime trees and it's the season where they now full bloom, just want to try and prevent the sap getting on the paintwork. Thanks

    CVT gearbox Issue (pre facelift) – No drive or gears

    I have done a diagnostic CVT procedure. The light remains on 2 seconds at first, then I get 7 short on blinks similar to the below. Does the diagnostic test pick up everything, if so this points to something mechanical, as no fault with the box? [No fault found: There is a 2 second pause...

    Engine stalling while idling

    I did do it once on my current K11 (daily driver), but I used the wrong flux (accidentally picked up plumber flux), the fix worked for about a month, before the MAF board rotted! I then replaced the whole throttle body, with a decent 2nd hand one & been fine since. So I am now considering re...

    Engine stalling while idling

    It could be the MAF board requires soldering. If I discover anything more, I'll let you know.

    Engine stalling while idling

    I have a feeling the MAF sensor on pre-facelift's is not withdrawable, it's on the board, behind the silver plate. Maybe has to be re-solded?

    Engine stalling while idling

    Hi Is your's a coilpack or preface lift version? I have been getting the same on my 2nd (non daily runner) preface lift Micra, as well. I'd be intrested to hear if you discover what it is. Does your's smell a bit rich running when it's doing this bad idling stuff?
