    About to hit 185,000kms...help me double check what to get serviced

    thanks for your reply, I was looking at a kit like that too, it's the same price as the Stanley, but I don't know about the quality...says it's vanadium alloy so in theory should be quite tough...

    About to hit 185,000kms...help me double check what to get serviced

    My girlfriends K11 is about to hit 185,000kms, and since the car has held up an almost bomb proof reliability until now, I wanted to make sure it could keep going until its next milestone(200k :glare:) The car has not had the best service history, last year it ran for a whole summer with no...

    Oil advice and recommendations here

    hey guys, I'm thinking of changing the oil in the next weeks as it's been quite some time now :o The micra is a 1.0 16v 44kW engine. So far I've been looking at 5W40 100% synthetic oils, and have found Total Quartz Energy 9000 at a good price. I wanted to know if this oil is compatible...

    K11 has been hit...

    She's back :grinning: looks new, and I just noticed that both front lights were changed (notice no more orange turn signals). I also fitted some LED's I had ordered and was about to fit before the accident. I also got the car almost resprayed, so it only has a few dings that would have needed...

    K11 Micra...Speaker connectors?

    Finally got the micra back from the body shop, and fitted the speakers in 10 minutes. They are less deep than the stock speakers, and what a difference (Y) I ended up buying the sony XS 1737's as the price was really good these are the ones that came off the parcel shelf :laugh...

    Seat Belt doesn't retract anymore!

    ok so I found someone on ebay who sells in here in Italy... the code is different... its: 86885 6F810 According to a list of spare parts of the micra, this piece is the exact same one, but used between the production period from August 1999 to July 2000 (so just before my micra was produced)...

    Seat Belt doesn't retract anymore!

    I'm trying to figure out how the codes work for the seatbelts... seems to be that the code changes in relation to the year of production. My code seems to be used for micras produced between July 2000 and November 2000. Can't figure out compatibility with the pretensioner though... this is the...
