Sounds like the symptoms of a vacuum leak on a bike...no rubber boots on the inlet mani of a k11 though. Could be worth throwing an eye over your piping & see is anything cracked. Or spray an aerosol around joints at idle & if the revs climb she's pulling in air

What's the soda for? Presumably it makes the glue more gooey so it stays on the joint?

Matiz springs in the front: Cut the rear springs down to 290mm 25 quid on ebay, can't go wrong! Only took a few minutes to do also, as the springs fit nicely onto the Micra dampers and fit the retaining cups and all. I had Corsa B Coilovers on my previous K11. These were an absolute...

It's a 98 K11 Facelift. Can you see the nats 1 unit behind the fan without actually having to take out the glovebox fan etc? Not worrying about working on it for now, I'll just have a look with a torch and see is it there...

Hi all, I'm considering putting a remote start I have in my K11, but it'll mean having to bypass NATS. Can anyone tell me which nats I have?

Check the owners manual and check behind the ashtray for a sticker?

Good stuff. The markings on the filter housing itself say screw it in until you get contact +3/4 of a turn but I always hate move-on specs! The filter on my bike is spec'd at 10Nm so I did mine up to that + a little more because that felt loose :p

Howdy all, Having joined on here around 2 years ago, I sold on my K11 and moved from Ireland over to the East Mids almost exactly a year ago to take up a job at Triumph and stopped coming on here. After moving over I've owned a 406 Estate 1.9 TDI which failed the **** out of its MOT, and an...

Was on the tip of my tongue...the oil filter is at the back under the inlet manifold, difficult to see so you basically have to line it up by feel

Looks lovely styling wise! Specs? Too lazy to google :P

Gone I'm afraid lads, sold the whole car a day or two before I left

I'm by no means an expert but I Believe the shells are all the same, so they should fit. If you look at the ad at the top, that's the height I'm at at the moment, with 15mm spacers the between the turrets and the tops of the coilovers, so they'll get you low enough to definitely have to roll out...

If it hasn't sold by Thursday I'd take a hundred quid

Moving to the UK from Ireland Saturday Sept. 26th Have Tuning Art coilovers from a corsa B with the k11 tops in my k11, can remove them and bring to Leicestershire next week if there's any interest. I'll scrap the car if the coilovers are sold separately, or can drive it over and sell as is...

Hard to know to be honest! I've taken some rough measurements so I'll have to draw up a mani on CAD first and see how well it prints , then it might take a few shots at casting it before it's useable; the gate positioning on the part affects how well it'll cast

I have Corsa B Coilovers in mine. You need to file/ream/drill the holes on the bottoms of the front legs out from M10 (Corsa) to M12 (K11), not difficult but a bit time consuming with a file! Same with the rear lower mounting holes; they need to be drilled to go onto the M12 stud on the micra...

Howye all...long time no post! I've been tied up lately, but I've got 3 3D Printers sitting at home now, and the brother has a furnace that he uses to melt & cat aluminium and steel ! DIY Aluminium casting is relatively common but steel casting is quite rare given how hard it is to get the...

1275 it is so...I'm supposed to be saving €€€ for Possible move to Oz so **** getting a regrind! you hardly have rods/cams too? Last mod, I swear

How bad is the 1348 one? What would Frank do? hardly a noticable difference between the 1275 and 1348?

Idler sprocket mishap ? The pics look like about 20 degrees of valve timing change? :-o
