Hello, The airbag might not have deployed, but the air bag light is one of K12's problems. For example my wife's Micra always has the light on as soon as I move back the chair (when I drive). The operation to get rid of it is something along these lines...

Hello, What is the name/model of the smaller bulbs at the top of the head light (see attached pic)? Our right hand side one is gone by the looks of it and need to replace it. While at it was wondering if it's worth replacing them with LEDs and if anyone can recommend some? Might get handy...

Thanks a lot for the instructions!

Guy, Very nice site, loads of useful info. Do you update it often? Ping me if you need help with hosting it in the future.

Thanks, now I need to learn how to remove the airbox. :-)

Hello, My 2003 K12 is quite oil hungry. Incidentally, it also makes a weird "knocking" sound when in neutral (sounds fine when driving). Upon hearing this a friend instantly said it must be the PCV valve. Can anyone tell me where this valve is on a K12? I understand changing it is cheap and...

I'm guessing this technique can be applied to a micra as well: hth

Hello, My one and only key looks something like this, only much more beaten up (3rd owner): Can anyone confirm whether this new fob would be compatible with it or not, or point me to a fob that is known to work and fits the slot on the steering/starter? Thanks!

I am not sure it's what you're after, but I bought a wooden beads cover and I'm quite happy with it, comfy and I sweat considerably less on it. They are cheap, e. g. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B000PLUG9E/ref=ya_aw_oh_bia_dp

Cheers for the info, will keep it in mind. I ended up buying some budget tyres (new) from the local garage for £48 a piece; can't remember the name right now, not a famous brand but they do a good job as far as we could tell.

Hi, Budget is tight, but I'm looking to renew the tyres in our K12 (2003, alloy). What do owners around here recommend, new economy tyres or second hand but brand ones? And while at it, any general advice, gotchas etc regarding k12 tyres/wheels?

I was just asking about a compatible stereo myself, though I am yet to get one, check this: https://www.micra.org.uk/threads/recommended-stereo-radio-for-k12-03.64650/

Cheers, managed to find a screw (though it took me a while and a really big screw driver to get it unscrewed). See attached.

Indeed, thanks a lot. It's quite annoying to have controls on the wheel without being able to use them. :-)

Thank you

Thanks, can you elaborate a bit on the adapter bit? Is this something the stereo comes with or needs to be purchased separately? Any model numbers etc? Thanks

Hello, We got a K12 from '03, the stereo is not original and it's in pretty bad shape. Volume controls from the steering wheel do not work, it does not have a bluetooth or a simple AUX-IN slot to feed it some music from the phone/mp3player. Only 1DIN available. Can anyone recommend a compatible...

We just got a K12 from 2003 this year and so far no issues, although the exhaust heat shield gave us a scare. :-)

Hi, I'm trying to connect a dash cam in the fuse box and it requires a ground connection, obviously. I've been staring at the fuse box, but can't figure out a good point where to ground the camera. Any pointers? Where do people ground their devices? Cheers!

Maybe. I use a _much_ cheaper one from ebay.co.uk. However there seems to be a luck factor involved, took me several tries with several different devices (from friends) to finally get something working with my 2003 Micra. And the one that worked for me did not on a friend's BMW.. And one which...
