  1. sounds like the connection has been reversed on the passenger door lock mechanism - has any work been carried out on the car recently?
  2. It does sound like you have covered all the bases and the one thing I would have said is that the battery is failing - but you have had it tested and seems fine. A system reset and scan would definitely be the way forward Please let us know how you get on with it and what the outcome is
  3. Hi...welcome to the Club Unfortunately turbos can just go but usually give signs like oil consumption (and smoking from the exhaust) also noises (such as high pitch squeeling) but hopefully all is now okay and you can move on without incurring any damage to the engine However, it is advisable to change the engine oil regularly and use a good quality oil filter as well
  4. Hi...welcome to the Club Can't go too wrong with a Micra. Simple engineering and go on for years Good to have you onboard!
  5. I would imagine a vehicle trimmers that specialise in convertible roof may be able to assist as they may know where to source the parts and the original cause and rectification of the fault.
  6. You may be able to find a company to test and rebuild the BCM so a Google Search on automotive electronic control unit companies and I'm sure you'll find one that can
  7. enjoy your holiday....going anywhere nice?
  8. Maybe clean the sensors and also check each one for a feint clicking noise when in reverse and the ignition on (ensure engine not running)
  9. Can you swap the wheel from the other side (should be secured by one screw in the middle - possibly a cover over the top of the screw?)
  10. Thanks for posting this useful guide to replacing window motors....very helpful to other owners!
  11. There used to be a company called Kenlowe who made aftermarket electric fans Another place to try is DemonTweeks as they sell electric fans that can fit anything
  12. I have removed one from a Mitsubishi L200 and apart from someone to give you a hand to lift it off its just nuts and bolts really (oh and a bit of wiring to disconnect)
  13. I would be tempted to remove the tub and also check the chassis for corrosion (common issue) while you are there.
  14. If they have accepted your booking and you provided the number plate then surely they have details of your vehicle and if over a certain length they should inform you that they cannot accomodate a vehicle of that size. Saying that, larger vehicles are more commonplace on the roads nowadays so probably not an issue
  15. Can you spray the cables with something smelly that will deter the foxes?
  16. It is worth having it checked....not sure what Nissan checks are like but Toyota do a Hybrid health check for about £60
  17. Check battery, and if the car has not recently been serviced then book one in
  18. Glad you found (or at least your son did) the location. Usually Air Temp Sensors are in behind the front bumper area so not too far away from that then
  19. Sounds like it could be a vacuum leak listen for any hissing noises coming from the engine bay at idle
  20. I would imagine that most of the Sunny range from that era, no matter what size engine and transmission would fit the gap....at least it widens your range to look for
  21. You could try someone like DemonTweeks that sell Powerflex Bushes https://www.demon-tweeks.com/uk/catalogsearch/result/?q=bushes
  22. Not sure if you can still find a radiator rebuilder/repairer that can sort it for you
  23. I have seen many larger vehicles parked in Heathrow car parks so imagine it should be fine. If you are left with a choice of parking spaces then ones on the end or overhanging a grass area should be fine Maybe Google the car park and look at the aerial view to see what the spaces are like
  24. Its worth drafting an advert to put in the For Sale section of the forums.
