    Thanks for your reply. If there was a cracked exhaust manifold, wouldn't the EWL remain permanently lit?

    Catalytic Converter

    I have a 2001 K11 Micra with a 1.4 litre petrol engine. current mileage is 128 110. The engine warning light has appeared twice in the last nine months, and indicated the same fault code: PO 420. The garage cleared the fault code and installed Cataclean in the petrol tank. The EWL remained...

    Rotary multi-tool - advice

    There are so many rotary multi-tools to choose from that I am bewildered. I'm looking for a cordless one which will drill, cut, grind, sand and polish, complete with a range of tools. It needs to be a well-known make for ease of obtaining spares and not over-expensive. I'm not a professional...

    Front anti-roll (stabiliser) bar drop link sheared.

    This happened to my 2001 K11 Micra today and I thought it an easy job to remove the link & bushes - wrong! I've soaked the link rod and lower securing nut with Plus Gas and I can just turn it in the the eye of the anti-roll bar. The top nut and bush disappeared with the sheared off bit of the...

    Petrol Filler Pipe

    I have a K11 Micra 1.4 SE (2001) with a corroded petrol filler tube, too fragile to make an effect repair. If anyone has a good second-hand one available, I would be very interested!

    Refuelling problem

    I have a 2001 K11 Micra 1.4 SE and the last time I filled up with petrol, I noticed fuel leaking out under the rear of the car, just before the petrol pump cut off. I didn't fill up particularly fast and I have noticed this happen on an earlier occasion. I looked underneath the car and didn't...

    Roof aerial mounting Wanted

    After taking my Y-reg Micra SE 1.4 petrol through the car wash, it came out with the roof fixture for the aerial broken, with the threaded part missing, so I can't screw the aerial back in. Has anyone got one for sale or is about to break a similar model. I presume the aerial is common to all...

    Dead Starter? 2002 k11

    Sounds like low battery charge. How old is the battery? You could charge it first then have it tested to see if it is holding a charge. But, first & foremost, check all wiring connections to battery, starter and chassis earth strap. They must be clean & tight. The starter motor is best accessed...

    Cooling system overheating

    I've just renewed the anti-freeze in my 2001 K11 Micra 1.4 SE, and now after a run it is overheating - the temp. gauge needle went into the red after about four miles. I suspect an air lock in the system as it didn't take the full quantity of coolant when topping up. Any tips on bleeding the...

    ATTENTION ALL RALLY BUFFS

    Does anyone know which manufacturer's team famously put the co-driver in the back seat of their 1980’s World Rally Championship cars? I've tried Google, but to no avail. Thanks in anticipation.
