Hi!
I've bee a member on here for quite a while and not really done much with my Micra! Mainly because the wife's been using it as her daily run around for the past 18 months.
She's now moved onto the family Juke which was mine until she had 1 years no claims! Now that's hard on the insurance she's stolen it!
So now Marjorie is mine!
Here she is in the poor state I inherited her
The missing wheel trims are the result of mounting a traffic island at 30mph
So as it stands I've got a few must do jobs
1/ Service - the oil hasn't even been dropped in 2 years and the Pollen filter is the original!
2/ Fix a water leak on the passenger side
3/ deep clean - she's a dirty old bitch!
4/ figure out what is knocking on the back end and fix it
5/ sort the rust on the rear arches
After that I'm planning on a few minor mods
1/ lower with 35mm springs
2/ parcel shelf speakers
3/ marvel it up a little inside!
So today at work I attacked the pollen filter, chopped the dash, removed the filter. The one I got was the wrong one! New one will be in tomorrow! Decided to remove the filter box and blower motor so I could get in behind the dash to find my leak!
The motor is pretty rusty so I'm fairly confident the leak is coming from around there!
I'm pretty certain I've located it! There's an oval O ring and a green clip directly above the blower motor. Silicone sealed both of them and removed the scuttle pan to silicone them on top.
Left for a few hours to set and poured three buckets of water over the windscreen and no leak! So either it's coming from somewhere else or I've fixed it! Just hoping for some rain to make sure hahaha.
After putting my interior back together and driving home I was greeted with a little package on my door step!
Can't beat a bit of 90's nostalgia!
Oh and yesterday I added a personal touch to my billy basic Micra
So that's it for now! I'm going to service it tomorrow providing my parts come and give it a quick wash
