Crazy 1st gear kangaroo

[Dougyledds]

Hi all, 1st gear feels like its gonna shoot me out the window as islightly press on the accelerator.. some crazy kangaroo coming from somewhere

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesnt.. can somtimes jump through other gears a little bit also which is odd, probably just a simple fix but yea

Not really serviced it properly just yet, only put some decent petrol in to clean it out a bit.

its a 1.0lt Shape

THanks

Im unsure how to check mate, might have a look into that, dunno how old all the dizzy cap/rotor arm is tho.. and my air filter looks preety grubby

X2 Pay a nissan dealer £200 of do it yourself for free, asuning you have a soldering Iron

 

[Dougyledds]

Is that whats causing it tho?

Cost nothing only your time and a soldering iron to do so try it and see, there is a guide on here if you search for it

Very doubtful that its your air filter, theres a common fault with throttle bodies so its a good place to start. Easy enough to do and cheap to fix, id start there it sounds like the most likely cause!

Ok thanks all

And if its really bad like mine was and turns out its not the throttle body, look out for this.
