Hi Cat,

Just letting you know to be cautious of MachineAddict I think he is a scammer and I see he has responded to your oil pump search, last week NitroWade coned me by selling me camshafts he didn't have, he just gets pictures and info from other ads online and once the money is sent it all goes quiet.... I could be wrong but MachineAddict just tried to sell me another camshaft but its from a Nova.

Ok thank you
Sadly looking to sell our 1987 K10 Nissan Micra Hatchback. £200 ono. We have owned it since new. 116,000 miles. Runs with electronic ignition, new clutch exhaust, Weber carb, etc. Mots - no failures. For improvement or parts. Currently SORNED. Have photos of car. Tel 020 7223 8635 after 6pm. London.
Hey was going to make a post but you seem like to have the best info. I have an Aussie spec cg13de (1997) wanna build for street NA. have a JUN lightweight flywheel and also a nistune for tuning, 4-1 headers and wanna order 774 cams. So my main question is what's the best way to boost the compression ratio?

Part 2 of question.

I have head of using early dizzy cg10de flattop pistons. How about coil pack cg10de pistons or cr12de pistons (also 71mm). One thought I had was using a cga3de crankshaft 82.8mm (but with cg13de rods) in my mind it would give an increase in both compression ratio and capacity (1275 to 1311)
E10 fuel is being rolled out in the UK soon, which is 90% and 10% ethanol blended, Nissan say there car built from 2004 are ok to run on this mixed petrol, but before this date you will have to use the super unleaded which will be staying at 5% ethanol, has anyone any thoughts on this? :unsure:

2004 1.2 SE, intermittently PS doesn't "kick in" when you start it. Daughter has been living with this for months, turning off/on and eventually it works. Yesterday I had same issue, no PS, drove about 3 miles, turned it off/on and PS was then fine for the rest of the day. This morning daughter went to it and couldn't get PS working. At no time has the PS light come on to indicate a failure.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Correct, no power steering, but no warning light. If you didn't know it was too heavy compared to normal, there's no indication that it's faulty.

Power steering back to normal. Much appreciated you taking the time to run through the diagnostics and see why my PS was duff. Replacement has been fitted with no problem, the installation guides were invaluable. Very interesting and informative chat on all things EPAS on a Micra. Thanks again.

No problem, less about service and more about helping and trying to be honest and decent. Speak soon.
We just brought a 2008 Micra for my learner driver daughter today. The steering feels a bit stiff to her (I didn’t find it an issue) So just put it down to her being used to her instructors (newer) car. The NATS lamp is on which we thought was just a sensor issue but now we seen the EPS failing being a common fault. Obviously want to get this sorted ASAP for my daughter. Can you offer any advice please?

Hi, my PS light comes on if I turn the ignition straight away but doesn’t if I turn the keys, wait for the lights (including PS light) to come on and go off and then start the engine. Fault code read as C1608. Any idea on the best thing to do? Thanks in advance :)

Hi There everyone, John in Scotland here. I am trying to locate a K10 replacment exhaust system for my Pao. I know that I need to remove and reposition the flange to fit the pal. Just looking for a good supplier I am also looking for a O/F cv joint.

I have a spare Pao heater box. The fan works perfect but there is a slight leak on the plastic heater matrix hence why I replaced it.

Hi
This car has been a lady owner. garaged car all its life. I am not a mechanic, but for 18 years old this car is in remarkable condition.I dont know what to do with it.Run it till it dies. Or would someone in this club know of someone who would put this away,love and cherish it. This would make a great low mileage classic

Hello MrFahrenheit,

Thank you so much for your kindly intervention. Your intuition is right. I have been like a bear with a sore head with this for some time and it has made things difficult for me, although there are much much worse things in live of course. Would you be able to contact me on [email protected] just in case we are not allowed to talk about this sort of thing.
Many thanks.
Steve

Indeed. I was a bit unsure myself how to propose it, but as I'm giving it away I'd hope it wouldnt affect a 'buy and sell' forum. I shall send an email within the next hour, check your spam in case it goes there. Any problems let me know. Regards, Andrew.
