    C+C 1.4 burning oil

    I'd say not. 12bar isn't bad at all, assuming the gauge is accurate. I don't know what the spec figures for compression are but since my gsxr 750 is 150-200 psi 174 sounds very healthy. I could be wrong though.

    K12 Micra Battery Drain & Central Locking

    It could be. As I understand it from talking to a local nissan dealer recently. The car looks for a registered key quite frequently immediately after shut down but that frequency decreases the more time passes since last finding one. Or at least that's what should happen. Its not a great...

    Nissan Micra - Highish Fuel Consumption

    6-6.5l/100km sounds about right, its what we get with our 2005 CC . That's average but then we probably have less town driving. 13 does sound high but without knowing more about the style of driving to get that figure it's impossible to tell.

    Using the emergency key in ignition barrel. Keyless entry CC

    If you have no joy with him, get yourself a dremel clone (my last one was ~£30 ) use the circular cutting disks to cut slots in the heads of the tamper proof bolts and then use a flat blade screwdriver to remove them. Just use normal bolts when replacing. Swapping the steering lock might not...

    Using the emergency key in ignition barrel. Keyless entry CC

    So just to round out my story, although I'd still like to know how Waggy got on, I bought a fairly cheap (not the cheapest but close) replacement key on Ebay, swapped out the transmitter part with the non functioning OEM key. Bought an Xtool A30M in the hope that it would tell me something...

    Remote locking not working

    Do you only have the one key? We have two but one was dead as a remote when we got the car so they are prone to failure. I've ordered a cheap one from ebay in the hope that replacing the transmitter will get it working. I've been told both the transmitter and the inert chip need to be coded to...

    Using the emergency key in ignition barrel. Keyless entry CC

    Not all possible options, if man built it, man can repair it. Sometimes it's just not an easy route.

    Using the emergency key in ignition barrel. Keyless entry CC

    How odd, its hard imagine how such symptoms could be brought about by changing the battery, so perhaps in this case it is purely coincidental.

    Using the emergency key in ignition barrel. Keyless entry CC

    There's certainly more than one way to do it, it just comes down to what you have available, I assume you've also tried graphite powder in the lock? Not a great believer in coincidence particularly when it comes to working on mechanical things. Can you lock and unlock the car?

    Using the emergency key in ignition barrel. Keyless entry CC

    Thinking about it again, maybe it's not the solenoid after all. Had you been able to turn the lock and then still not been able to turn the wheel then maybe but since you don't get that far... when I took mine apart it became apparent I wasn't the first to want to do so. It should be held on...

    I'm not at home at the moment but when I am we can work out a way for me to send you a copy if you like

    Using the emergency key in ignition barrel. Keyless entry CC

    I meant the official workshop manual, Haynes are rubbish and usually not worth bothering with.

    Using the emergency key in ignition barrel. Keyless entry CC

    Ours is a 2006 but I'd hazard a guess they'd be able to help no matter what the year if it really is a mechanical issue. If i remember correctly, I believe there's a solenoid that locks the steering lock until a registered key is detected. Sounds to me like that might have failed on yours...

    LH window: it opens a bit on its own

    :LOL: Done similar things myself in the past when pushed. Like your style. Why not get hold of a second hand unit and repair that if necessary?

    LH window: it opens a bit on its own

    Thought as much, your choice but I'd go second hand. You just need to find a decent breakers. I'd be surprised if there were after market options but you could try the internet and the motor factors. It's been awhile but the last K11 winder mechanism I worked on the problem was the glass...

    LH window: it opens a bit on its own

    If man built it man can fix it, but in this case it's probably going to be easier to just get a replacement mechanism from a breakers. Electric or manual window?

    LH window: it opens a bit on its own

    Sounds to me like you've got wear on a gear in the mechanism that's allowing it to jump.
