    How easy is it to clock a Micra?

    as far as i know the mileage is determined by the ECM on cars with electronic odometer, so if the speedo has been changed, or disconnected then the ECM should send the 'correct' mileage to the odometer clock when reconnected. I ve seen it happen on a (DLA) mazda 3 supposed to have 9k when sent...

    Braking Problems

    You're likely to have brake disc warp, brake pads sticking on the sliding surface or sticking slide pins for the caliper. if they are newly fitted discs/ pads, I would check all the mating surfaces are clean and free of any rusty lumps, especially the hub and the brake pad mounting slides.

    Boot release and rear speaker issues

    I take it from your posting the radio is a standard nissan one; I am also assuming nissan fitted rear speakers as standard on the top of the range micra (my 1.3 micra inspiration didn't), cos the low spec ones didn't have rear speakers, if they are in the rear doors the fault could be in the...

    Master cylinder reservoir cap??

    It will fail MOT without the resevoir cap, not only for the obvious spillage problem, but the brake fluid will absorb moisture and give you a spongy pedal! Go to a scrappy and whip one off a scrapped one, as they obviously will cost a silly price from your friendly nissan stealer if they can get...

    Tyres!

    So would I. Nissan recommends 165/60 R 14 77H, and as the 60 erpresents a % of the width(165); if you fitted wider ones the sidewall ratio would need to be smaller, eg... going from 165/60R14 to 185/55 R14 I done this on a tire comparison site: Tire Size Comparison SpecificationSidewall...

    Economical Exhaust System...

    man, you're enomomy must have been bad to start with! my k11 had a fairly large hole behind the back box, and it dropped approx 10mpg down to about 35mpg, the straight pipe would only be the same as NO silencer, and it maybe an attraction to the pigs for noise pollution.

    i want a square number plate for the front on my micra

    As i said before, I was done for a similar thing, fined, had to get new plates made, fitted, and then take the car to the Rozzers station in Ballymena to show it had been done to the fcuker who fined me!

    i want a square number plate for the front on my micra

    I know, the Jap spec plate looks the business! That's why my celica has them fitted (but then again its a JDM import) Rozzers argued the plates wern't legal until I was able to tell hem to check the law on registration of used imports, and that ####ed them off Anyone with a query on uk srec...

    i want a square number plate for the front on my micra

    Yep, technically they're illegal although the digits and spacing are correct, and I'm surprised the MOT centre didn't make you fit the correct ones, i've had cars turned down for the garage logo at the bottom being too close to the digits, and minor cracks in no plate! The only thing you're...

    i want a square number plate for the front on my micra

    Sorry for the double post, as far as I know halfrauds do the square truck type plate, but you will need the registration certificate and photo ID (preferably drivers licence cos some of their staff can be very thick)

Anyone purchasing Plates must show their Drivers lic and Reg Certificate, its to counteract cloning plates and if they're caught its a £2500 fine, and if your plates are not to DVLA standard you get £60 and 3 points minimum (from the rozzers), next...

    Frank, looking at the wiring diagram on autodata, there is 1 feed wire to the ICM and 1 returning. Is it possible to put a 'link' in to bypass the ICM

    K11 Immobiliser Problem

    Not sure where its located on a micra lad, try behind the glovebox, or below the centre console, that's where they are commonly located in most cars. I had a problem with a starlet ECU and had to go back to the scrappy for the Immobiliser Control Module as the code for the Transponder in the...

    Seems to be a weak point on the K11, Ext Fuz box melting and Headlamp connector melting, Mine also had the same faults, and a lot of the scrappers I looked at for a donor fusebox were the same!
