Right, after buggering around for an hour trying to get the fog light to work I'm going to stick in a simple switch and run wires to the rear. What's the best way to take a feed off the loom? It's only for the mot. Who the hell needs these things anyway.

I've searched because I thought someone had posted about having this done but can't find anything. Anyone know anyone who can do this? There are some on ebay but I want to try and be environmentally friendly and keep the originals.

Been told by the mechanic these need replacing which explains a slight judder when taking off in first on a hill (clutch and gearbox are fine.) Anyone have a service manual and know what the Nissan part numbers are for the various bushes? Nissan dealerships don't want to know unless you have a...

Just a small one but annoying me because I like things clean. Is it possible to remove the sump just using stands? If so, should I replace the sump or just clean it up and use a sealant of some sort?

Feel stupid asking but can't seem to find out...:wasntme:

The girlfriend's LS has a webasto sunroof, Nissan UK fitted, not the wind type but one you can tilt at the rear and pop out altogether if you choose. The thing leaks from one corner and I have cleaned it to no avail. I can't for the life of me see any drain points. Am I missing something or is...

Anyone know if it would work? Plenty of new K11 ones out there, only used K10s.

Hi, Mine has busted and need a replacement. Anyone have one off a knackered transmission? ebay produced no results (well, two sold a wee while ago), dealer not interested usual story. Also posted in wanted, as you can see I need a new one pronto as the existing one is not sealing properly...

Hi, Mine has busted and need a replacement. Anyone have one off a knackered transmission? ebay produced no results (well, two sold a wee while ago), dealer not interested usual story. Cheers, Phil.

Was driving behind her the other day and noticed that the exhaust smells damn rich. Not quite unburned petrol but not far off it. Never really noticed it before but wondering if there are some basic checks/adjustments I can do. Servicing is up to date, not messed with the carb or the fuel/air...

Had a mechanic change the cambelt, tensioner, water pump and rocker cover gasket (had a bit of an oil leak). Not pleased as got home and found the coolant way low, below the minimum marker. Engine also seems to sound more "tappety", used to be extremely quiet. Would you normally lose coolant...

Small oil leak from the rocker cover on the LS (89), and want to replace the gasket (having the cam belt done so the time is right.) Seen a few on ebay saying 82-92, and some saying K10-K11. Is the rocker cover gasket the same on all K10s? Thanks.

Need to pull the plastic trim on the roof to do a bit of surface rust. Before I rip into it any tips on removing them? Cheers, B.

Hi, Mechanic mentioned that the vibration I get in my LS when changing into first is the gearbox mounting bushes having perished and that only Nissan can supply the part. Anyone know if the advice is correct and what the part number is? Gearbox engages fine as does the clutch, just this...

Garage round the corner refused to change the cam belt, last guy I had do some work couldn't figure out some pretty basic stuff porkpie helped me with. Anyone know a decent mechanic in London, pref. south but whatever. I try my hand at a few jobs but some I just know I will regret taking on.

My 1.0 has been a trooper in this last load of snow, including an emergency run to the hospital. The old girl needs new shocks. Also wondering about springs. How do you tell when springs need replacing? The shocks are an MOT advisory, nothing said about the springs but while I'm doing shocks...

Hi, Before I pull out a seat, has anyone modified the standard K10 runners to permit the seat to go back further? I would like a couple more inches legroom and don't want to get into all the universal subframe business etc. Any information appreciated. Thanks!

I had a chance to drive a friends 1991 K10 GS, just like my 1992 with the 5 speed. She keeps her one well maintained and it ran fine but I am darn sure it did not have the nice haul in second gear that mine has. I'm sure I'm imagining it but were there any differences in the MA12 over time...

Hi, turns out the Kwik Fit exhaust recently installed by the last owner was not well done. quelle surprise. The middle muffler has a leak on it, well it is literally coming apart at the welded seams. Do you think it would be OK to just remove this middle muffler and weld some straight pipe...
