Ok thanks i'll check that out. Time to get the old haynes out, have a read then pass the problem to my Father, nah just kidding. Thanks a lot, Any other thoughts , greatly welcome I will look at all possible issues.

Hi everyone, Long time no chat, been very busy recently, then again I'd guess that most would not remember me ever being on here though. So about a month or so back the car started to whistle and squeal, it sounded like it was coming from the back right wheel, assuming you are standing at...

Hey thanks for the heads up, I think I've read something similar in another post, possible from you I can't remember though. I have a friend who did all his own work on a Golf, looked very very good, I'm going to ask him for a quote he may take the work. I think my budget may be between £500 -...

Hi, So soon I think I want to get my micra re-sprayed and have some dents fixed, so I've started looking around for some places close to home that can do a good job. I live in Derbyshire, and can get into Nottinghamshire very easily by simply walking down to the bottom of my street and...

Thanks for the link frank, but I’m just going to select the factory fitted option for my insurance, although I did want to be more specific to the version, I don’t want to waste anymore hours trying to figure this out. Thank you for all your input though guys, much appreciated. Kind Regards, Ben.

Ive been googling, and looking at various sites geting the tech specs of the car, all but the NATs version. My key does have a red chip in it. Do you have roughly any idea what you put into google? Thanks, Ben.

Please, does anyone know? Kind Regards, Ben.

Hi, I'm glad I found this post I was just about to make my own. I am doing my insurance and I'm being asked what version of NATS my K11 has in it. I drive a 98 1.0l Twister. On the window there is the NATS sticker but no version, and nothing in the user manuals etc. If anyone could let me know...

Lol and now thats more hasstle, so anything out of a year 00 will cause issues, so maybe just stick to 98 and hope i get lucky an find a right off with engine an gear box in tact with less mileage than mine, though mine isnt to bad 71k so far. Very confused the more i read, the more things i can...

Hm ok then and now I know after more reading that a warm cat (which it should be when tested) is more likely to pass the emissions test. Thanks frank cleared things up for me a little bit, ok a hypothetical scenario, which I do want to happen eventually. My car micra 1.0l K11 1998, upgrade the...

Yeah, i have just been doing some searching i now know what it is, however i cant understand how it will help the emissions, or a ceramic paint. Which i now know ceramic is a better and more long lasting option, and i now also know that these janspeed exhaust are quite weak not cool, well the...

Ok since ive joined this forum ive done my research into a ecu map, so know what that is in a nut shell, however i havnt heard the term heatwrap before. Thanks frank, Ben.

But if they do scrape through, what are my options frank? Cheers, Ben.

Hi since this post is open can I ask a question(s)? I've been reading about these janspeed exhausts and I would like to fit one, when I fit my 1.3l engine in the K11. However I’ve been reading about emission failures, and it not having the catalyst after the manifold, and only having the one...
