    bypassIng the original imobislizer

    It's taboo Jamie, because your basically asking someone to tell you how to nick a Micra and bypass the security, I'm sure your gonna nick a Micra but that's why it's taboo as I far as I remember.

    Cleaning

    I'd tread very carefully with the jet wash idea, if you don't know what you are doing. Under bonnet fuses on Micra's are highly temperamental to water ingress, your HT leads and your dizzy not forgetting your air intake pipe. I use wonder wheels alloy wheel solution to clean my block and a...

    Old auntie's Micra: 1995 62k miles FSH

    Agreed Josh, A lot of car buyers will come round and point out rusty bits here and there, but stick to your guns, the engine is good for at least another 50k+ and any car with a years MOT is worth at least £500 for a years motoring. So my advice, let them have £50 off if they want to haggle...

    Uncool Micra

    Micra's aren't cool, they are sub-zero! , Any 17 yr old worth his salt is only thinking "What car is gonna help me get laid?"... Micra's are cool for being uncool, like anti-heroes, one day he will see the light.

    hmmmm do I? or don't I?

    You've got a steal there, unless you know history, I'd be inclined to check with used car checker or if it was ever a cat c right off... It looks a good car but its at least quarter market value so would have my alarm bells ringing.

    Hi new to this need a little help

    Welcome mate, 1. Bolt on Ebay ones are about £30 at last count. Might have trouble getting the old one off. Personally would get a garage to do the job, I'm guessing £150 inc p/l + welding. 2. Drop Links go loose as rubber perishes. These are a tenner or so from ECP/ebay. Replace rear...

    having trouble with my car , acceleration

    Just a thought, but maybe someone has driven it through a flood in December and after screwing the engine up has decided to get rid??? Gabrielle, Micras are all about reliability and ease of ownership. By the time you've corrected the faults, your going to be old, pss'd off and miserable...

    High level stop light not working any fuse...?

    All sorted now. You were right Frank it was a broken wire between the tailgate and body in the rubber grommet section. For anyone else, here's a little idiots guide and some photos for making the job easy. 1. Lift tailgate, unscrew the screws from centre brake light, check the bulb first! 2...

    High level stop light not working any fuse...?

    Hi all, Does the cente brake light have its own fuse? I checked bulb was okay then using multimeter I realised there was no feed going to it..... Is there a separate fuse on this one? Is there a feed coming from one of the other rear brake lights.... Cheers in advance if you know, Blanes

    Reasonable price for K11?

    Price sounds about right if its a 1 litre, if it's a 1.4 you're a bit too low. SE+ is top of the range so mention all the extras, sunroof and safety kit, if you have 2 keys and any history, say that too. I'm not in the market at the moment, but when buying K11's (and I buy a few) I only ever buy...

    Where to buy

    Paul Walker Tribute cruise...

    I've been invited to join this with my mate in his modded GT86, to be honest I wasn't a huge fan of Fast n' Furious, but it's all in good spirits for charity. So I thought I'd put it out there for all you K11'ers if you didnt know already:) All the best and Merry Christmas...

    Paul Walker..... RIP

    Very sad, as he seemed a nice bloke in TMZ interviews. How ironic the poor guy died in a car crash, only slight less ironic than John Denver leaving on a jet plane. Showing my age now...
