Usually PCV valves are located in the valve cover area

Was there anything that caused the initial lock-up? driving on a dirt track? anywhere a stop could have been introduced into the braking assembly?

I'm not sure about cars coming in from the Ukraine but imagine it is the same process for importing cars worldwide into the UK.
If its over 10 years old it doesn't matter about certificates of conformity as a lot of the Japanese or US imports don't have them
I once helped to import a Hummer H2 from Dubai into the UK and discovered that if it is over 10 years old the process is completely different to that of a younger vehicle.
It just needed the headlamps converting, lighting from red to amber and an MOT, that was it....a very simple process.There is plenty of information on the DVLA website including the forms for registration that you need, beyond that nothing else was required

Does the engine run or misfire?
I would measure the resistance of the injectors and they should all be approximately 16ohms
After that I would advise to check all power leads (12volt) and all earth leads from the battery all the way to the injectors
Have come across fouled wiring (running across engine or gearbox and chaffed through) and connections that have caused this code before and not an issue with the injectors

Try this video fix

It looks like the rod to clamp down the jack to the floor (there should be a threaded point in the boot area that will accomodate this rod)

You could try these companies for SRS components:

or eBay where you might see one pop up

Its quite common if the transfer box has not been used in a long time as the linkages and mechanisms get sticky
Best bet is to find as many opportunities (not difficult at this time of year) to use it and it will free up eventually

Hi....welcome to the Club
There are so many Kei cars around so its hard to determine which one you have seen
Try this selection of Google images for the likely culprit

Hi, is it a standard Nissan radio or some other make (e.g. Sony, Panasonic, etc) ?

The throttle body assembly may need cleaning, quite easy to remove and clean with Carb Cleaner and reinstall.
Alternatively, you can reset the Throttle with a scan tool and also worth checking the throttle pedal connections to ensure they are clean and secure
All of the above can affect the idle speed which may be what is occurring.

Hi Alan.....welcome to the Club
Good to have you onboard!

Coolant temperature sensor fault?
I would run a scan on the engine management system to see what shows up -
Unless someone has removed or blanked off the bulb but would require you to remove the instrument panel to check this
-
If you wish to remove the whole assembly from the windscreen then sometimes strong twine/cotton run from side to side like a sawing action will cut through the adhesive and allow the assembly to be removed
When its removed then you can disassemble and reassemble and fit with a new 3M adhesive sticky patch

Hi Andrew
Here are some eBay links to one the items you are looking for:
I cannot find anything for a parcel shelf unfortunately
-
Here is a link to a timing chain kit on eBay which shows the various components required to do the job properly
-
It may be that the previous owner had the function switched off
You could ask the dealer to reinstall the function via the scan tool but this would cost
Chances are it has LED lighting, if not then I would fit a bulb with a reverse beeper built in

Battery condition is my first thought, if discharged then this can be the fault
Ensure the brake pedal is fully depressed if not then the pedal switch may be faulty.
Also applies to automatic transmission selector switch (try running through the gear selection to see if this affects it) -
Hi....and welcome to the Club
What a fabulous Christmas present to receive
Good to have you onboard!
-
You are correct with the latter, always worked on every car I have had a DPF issue with
-
Not sure the diagnosis is anything more than if it is the DPF then it is best to give the car a good blast to clear it through and at zero cost
Stop/start

Those reasons are legitimate ones for the Stop/Start not to operate.
Just wondering if the system has defaulted to permanently switched off when the criteria is not met?
Maybe the handbook shows the procedure for re-initiating it to operate once more
