Hi all, usual apologies if this has been covered before. Daughter's 2002 K11 has passed the MoT with advisories: wear in both the front suspension lower balljoints. I've heard it's easier to replace the whole lower arm - looks a straightforward job despite being graded as "3 spanners" in the Haynes manual. I'd be interested to hear of any snags or "traps for the unwary" from anyone who's done the job. Thanks and Merry Christmas, Nick

Hey hey, I have a k12 Micra and swapped to 15" X 6.5" Clio wheels (they fill out the arches better, there's more tyre sizes available, and they look grand). I want to finish them off with the 7" center hubcaps from K11 Micra steel wheels. From what I can see, they just push onto the wheel bolts (and since the K11 and K12 have the same PCD it shouldn't be a problem), but after trying them on they don't seem to 'click' into place. They're loose and come off reallyreally easy. Should I use K11 wheel bolts? Or is there a special kind of fitment bracket on K11 wheels that holds the hubcaps in place? Thanks for your time, Sith

Hi everyone, I have a 1995 1.0L k11 Micra, which has been good as gold since I bought it last year. There's one niggle, however. It has a highly erratic temperature reading. Usually around 5 - 10 mins into a journey the needle on the temperature gauge suddenly (within 1 second) rises from the usual mid temp, to the very top red sections, and sometimes beyond. It can stay there several mins sometimes, other times a few seconds, and then immediately drops back down into the mid position again. It never drops below mid position. Sometimes, the temperature gauge doesn't play up at all, although this is quite rare. I find it strange, as it runs perfectly and shows no signs of physically overheating. Could it be a faulty temperature sensor? I welcome any suggestions! Thanks in advance!
