    Bulbs for clocks

    No fuses blown. All 5 bulbs changed, and it works fine now. I guess they have just gradually given up, and the previous owner just did othing... So now I know: Facelift Micra with digital instruments use 5 x 1,2W socketless bulbs (what are they called in english?) for lighting up the...

    Almost no air from the heater blower

    I have this 1999 Micra facelift. The heater blower/fan work fine in all 4 settings. But there's very little air getting out of the vents. When I make it recycle the air, it works fine, but on fresh air, even step 4 gives almost no air... I tried checking for any obvious blocking in the air...

    Danish Micra with no name

    Hmm... not too happy now. Went to the garage to change the thermostat. Broke the clip for the lower radiator hose. And the shop gave me the wrong thermostat... too small! Bloody #@*{! On a more positive note, I picked up the 14" alloys for less than £40. They look decent, especially...

    Bulbs for clocks

    Hi guys. My new Micra has absolutely no light in the intrument cluster. I know the type of bulps used, but how many of each size do I need? 5W and 1,2W. I could take it apart to check, but I'd prefer to pick the bulbs up on my way home and fix it tonight. Thanks! Ulrich

    Hey Steve. What kind of streering wheel boss are you using. Bought one a while ago, that won't flick off the indicators... Does yours do that? /Ulrich

    New Purchase: Things To Look For

    Check for noise from the clutch release bearing. If you hear a noise in idle, that disappears when you press down the clutch pedal. Then it's worn out. And check if the clutch slips when accelerating (hard). Also make sure that the car pulls along smoothly. If it stalls or cuts out when...

    Should I buy a 1,4 facelift?

    Morning sir! Thanks for your reply. Yeah, the extra bhp will be good. My wife will be driving this car quite long stretches of highway. So the car will be less stressed with the 1,4, compared to the 1,0. I was mainly concerned about common faults on the coilpack/facelifts. Other than that I'm...

    Should I buy a 1,4 facelift?

    Goodmorning Micra oracles. ;) I've been offered a decent looking K11 1,4 Comfort 2003 at a decent price. Does anybody have anything good/bad to say about the facelift/coilpack/1,4 model - I've only ever owned pre-facelifts. Is there anything special that I should be aware of on this version...

    I have an extra you could have for free. But I'm in Denmark... Makes it a bit complicated.

    what did you do to your micra today ?

    If your old "window" is less scratched, it's very easy to take apart and swap over. Sendt fra min GT-I8190 med Tapatalk2

    Danish Micra with no name

    Car running as it should now. New plugs installed - noproblems. A few days later the problem occured again. After wiping down moist ignition parts, getting it all dry and nice, the car started again. When I got back from work, I sprayed the distributor cover and surrounding electrical parts with...
