Just back from the garage, the guy couldn't bring it in and raise it up, as they were welding in there, so it was only a brief look. He asked when I last filled it up; I brimmed it yesterday afternoon. He said that the actual pipe had started to corrode, so that if it's brimmed, any petrol left...

I've got a sneaky suspicion it could be petrol, it appears black on the tarmac, but does seem as though it could be leaking from the tank/filling area.

Hey guys, I've had this problem on and off for maybe the last month or so. There's a drip from the rear passenger wheel, I'd noticed the kerb outside the house having the odd stain, but whenever I checked I couldn't find anything. I've gone outside today (the car hasn't been used since...

Hey all, so I did this earlier: Would it be completely stupid of me to crack open the fob part, and simply glue the blade in place? I've got a spare key, so it's not massively urgent...but is there a DIY fix for this? Cheers in advance

anyone got any links to any?

Howdy all, does anyone have any recommendations on seat covers for standard micra seats. A bit of water damage has left the front seats a bit ropey, any help would be appreciated.

ah cool, thank you both for your help. So it is simply a case of going to the scrap yard, getting hold of one, pulling the old one out, and pushing the new one in...does it need to be glued or anything?

It is the rubber seal https://www.dropbox.com/s/vlafzv1lsmgsbr8/2013-01-10%2020.24.32.jpg

yeh, pulling it out shouldn't be a problem, but I have no idea what it's even called, thus I don't know where to buy it, or even the sealant used to mount the new piece of rubber.

It's on the actual door of the driver's side, having a look at it now...the whole thing is barely hanging on, would you have any kind of guide, or tips on going about a replacement?

ah ok, would you know if this is the sort of job a newb can do, or would it be better just to take it to a garage?

Hi all, my micra has started dripping from the driver's side window during/after rainfall. After looking at the seals around the door, there seems to be a tear in it. Would I need to replace this, or is there a way to repair it with some sort of sealant? Cheers in advance.

looks pristine, can I ask what seat covers you've got on there?

As the title really, has anybody got any experince in buying these for a k11 micra, looking on ebay all I can really see is generic 'universal' ones.

hmm ok, but surely that would then mean destroying the hraness adapter i've got on it, and i'm pretty sure that still woul;dn't be anywhere near long enough to reach the cig lighter cable...
