Thank you so much for this information @plmval . It's a tough one as I want to sell it on but I'm quite honest and don't want to sell onto some unsuspecting person and rip them off. I was thinking of PX but then they may only give me peanuts for it given it has issues. The car did show a fault...

Hi guys, I know this is an old thread, but i've been having troubles with my K12 for ages now. So when it starts it's up at 1500 revs, then over the space of about 5 minutes it very slowly decreases down to about 900/1000 revs. As it's going down the needle slightly twitches up and down and...

Ok thank you. I will ask a garage to have a look for me. I read another thread and they mentioned that it might be the following things... Idle control valve sticking- may need cleaning? Coolant sensor (might be why it is using more fuel? But wouldn't the engine light be lit for this?) HT...

Hey, Thanks for your reply! So when it starts its up at 1500 revs, then over the space of about 5 minutes it very slowly decreases down to about 900/1000 revs. As it's going down the needle slightly twitches up and down and you can hear the engine idle change as it does this. When I just...

Hi @chriswills Is it relatively easy to check these seals and are they easy to find? It's super annoying as it has been to garages and they can't find the issue. It's particularly bad on a cold start, sounds like i'm over revving and it's using more fuel so I just want it sorted out, but...

Hi there, Having issues with my 2006 1.2 Micra... again! When you start the engine, it revs up as usual and then it sits at 1500 revs and doesn't go down. It also does it when you put the car in neutral for several seconds before it goes all the way down again. Has anyone had the same...

So the micra was in the garage for two days, he ran various tests on it and cannot find any fault with the car. Apparently the car is showing 5 different fault codes which he thinks are not relevant to the issues I am having. He has since turned off the light and told me to come back as soon as...

Thanks guys, it is booked in tomorrow morning will pass on what you have said to the mechanic. Will let you know how it goes! :)

Did the broken seals cause an air leak or an oil leak? I'm going to hand the mechanic a list of things we have discussed for him to look into for me I think.

@chriswills The spark plugs haven't been changed since I have had it (18 months) and the last garage I took it to a few weeks ago gave the throttle a quick clean, so I assume he must have taken the housing off. By air box do you mean the box the air filter sits in? I haven't checked the air...

Also @chriswills I just had a look at the MAF, it's coated in oil. Is it meant to be like this?! Thanks!

Hi there, I am looking into an Issue with my Micra K12. I removed the MAF sensor earlier today and it was coated in oil- is it meant to be like this do you know? My car is also over revving and the revs stick at 1500 when I put my foot on the clutch. Anyone had similar issues or know if there...

Hi Chris, Thanks so much for the advice. I have just taken out the headlight and checked the fuses myself, all seem to be in tact. Is there any chance the lambda sensors might need cleaning or are faulty? Re the air flow sensor, I will mention this to the mechanic when I take it in. Would the...

Hi there, I have a K12 1.2 2006 Micra and am having some issues with the engine light. Early 2016 the engine light turned on and the car was jumping/kangarooing when the engine warmed up. I took it to a garage to get it hooked up to diagnostics and it was showing that the lambda sensors were...

Hi guys! Just need a bit of advice with my 2006 Micra... Sounds like what you guys are talking about... Over the past month my car has started to kangaroo a bit when driving along, it also loses power when accelerating and will then suddenly gain power again and pull forward. Some days it is...
