    Which Micras came with trip computers?

    Do you have the trip computer on the instrument cluster already in a 09 Visia? I think it does,also if you are interested in installing the center console trip computer to yours it would be more easy if you can see a plug on the loom for this probably best to look for that first.

Probably not heavy duty tho and also low profile that isn't on top of my interest or needs atm. Just been checking and the flare on that brake pipe is bone dry. Found info saying to tighten them...

    Dirty dash and door cards

    Dirty dash and door cards

    Looking at the dash that looks worn and not dirty could be the product your using tho. BTW have you tried a drill brush they come in sets and can work wonders on seats and probably other interior parts like carpets etc.

    Dirty dash and door cards

    Please don't use bleach anywhere on a car. I think a handheld steam cleaner would do a good job. And perhaps work on both inside and outside.

    Nissan temperature warning light and interior doesn't get warm.

    Wise choice to burp the air out if some is present in the system, if that has little effect to inside cabin heat. Could also try flush the system out. its an probably an air lock if you have had to top it up.
