I had a really poor brake pedal when I bought this and have systematically worked through the brake system and now it’s fantastic. Funnily enough all the brakes have been pagid and I’ve stucj with them over a number of years.
All sorted. There was a lip on the drums that wasn’t allowing me to adjust the brakes properly. New drums and the car is transformed. Thanks for all you advice.
Many thanks for your reply. Brake fluid was done last week. So I've now had new pads discs, shoes and fluid. Footbrake now seems a lot better but handbrake is still on 11 notches (was on 8 with old shoes so don't think it's stretched cables)
Hi all. I have a 54 plate 1.2 micra.
I've just replaced rear shoes and now footbrake and handbrake are poor.
I went by other suggestions by adjusting handbrake to twelve notches before adjusting brakes at the automatic adjuster (cleaned and greased)and also took adjustment off handbrake before...
Hi I have a 54 plate 1.2 petrol micra that has an issue with the brakes.
Sometimes the brakes are right at the top of the pedal and really good other times I have to push the pedal down half way before I feel the brakes work but again they are still really good.

Hi. Yes there was a slight poor idle problem and after reading a few posts decided to replace it and there hasn't been a problem since. Hope this helps.
I have a 2004 1.2 micra that has an intermittent problem with the blower. If it's a very warm day I start the engine turn the blower switch and there is nothing on all four levels. If I wait a few minutes then I get all 4 levels on the blower working again and this will stay working for a few...
Hi Chris. I didn't drain the system at all. I had a cloth under the switch to catch the small amount of loss, I took the old one off and put the new one in straight away. The water loss was so small that I didn't even need to top the system up again. Hope this helps. Thanks.
Hi there. Annoyingly yesterday someone reversed into my car in a car park and left without leaving details. There's very little damage other than the boot lid seems to have shifted over a couple of mill.
This can be seen by the fact it's almost touching the light on the left side and the right...
Hi. I have a 2005 Micra with alloy wheels and locking nut.
The locking nut key has broken and I'm trying to get a replacement from Nissan but they need the number of the key to order one.
Does anyone have Nissan wheels nuts that match the picture with a code for the locking nut.
Thanks in advance.
Hi all. New to the club. I have a 2005 1.2se micra and have just changed the temperature sensor, after much searching I found very little information on its location so I thought I'd share it with you all.
The sensor is located on the rear of the engine on the right hand (battery) side. It has...
