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...

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...

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...

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!

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...

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...

Any recommendations for a DA polisher which is reliable, durable, efficient and doesn't cost the earth! Ta.

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...

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.

What is the breather hose from the gearbox attached to at its other end, which is curved like a hook? Would it be the carbon canister? Haynes manual doesn't show it. Thanks in anticipation!

After 9 trouble-free years of ownership, I now need a bigger car. So my 1999 (almost classic!) 5-door Micra 1.0 L GX is up for sale. Regularly serviced, bills and receipts kept since 1999, including past MOT certs. This car is thoroughly reliable, starts first time, runs well, has no fluid...

I would like to know whether it is ok to set up the correct handbrake adjustment on the K11 by: 1. Slackening off the handbrake adjustment screw until cables are fully slack. 2. Fully retracting handbrake operating lever inside each brake drum via a tool pushed through the...

A strange problem has arisen with my 2001 Micra. It wouldn't start this evening and I used it okay yesterday, filled up with petrol and put it in the garage and haven't used it, until I tried to start it this evening. It has always run fine before, the battery is nearly new and fully charged...

How can I fix the above problem, as heater is stuck in cold mode and the temp. control won't turn on the heat! (The heating system doesn't have air-con).

I have a used seat belt (from a scappy) for my 1999 5-door GX and just before fitting it I noticed it seems to be "locked" in the fully retracted position. Is there a way to "unlock" it so that I can uncoil the belt? It is the pre-tensioner type so I need to be careful I don't set off the...

Does anyone have a detachable head unit for the above radio/cd player they want to sell?

When travelling at 60 - 65 mph, the engine hesitates slightly when accelerating from 3rd to 4th gear, or after backing off the accelerator and then accelerating again in 4th gear. This is more noticeable when going up an incline. The engine is smooth at all other speeds and conditions including...

I need a pair of tailgate struts for my 2001 Micra 1.4 SE (five door). Anyone breaking a K11 with struts in good working order for sale? Thanks.
