From Jp5617. I promised a donation 3 months ago but I did not know how to do it as I remember you had a patreon before but could not find it. Today my kid showed me how to do it on KZfaq so we are doing it from his account. 😊. Thanks again

I service my three family cars regularly of which one is micra K12 since half a year ago. I also change cars fairly frequently - second hand and older models all of them, so I can work on them. Saying all that to point that I check loads of car repair videos but in terms of quality, precision and guidance yours are in the top tier 👏. Have bmw and Subaru also and there are a lot’s of videos for them, but thanks to you for k12 micra too. In a few days I will change a thermostat as shown here as I suspect it’s stuck open. Will definitely find time soon to drop you a donation. Thanks and happy holidays 🎉

Thanks for reply and holiday wishes. Little update. I did the job today. Replaced thermostat, added new coolant, burped the coolant with the funnel. Unfortunately lower hose still cold on 95 C, no heating in the cabin as before. I tested old thermostat (original Nissan) in boiling water after that and it opened. So probably thermostat was not a problem (why should it be simple ;-) Realized that I only got 2.5 liter of old coolant out. Starting to suspect clogged radiator or something of a sort. If you can think of anything, it would be greatly appreciated. @@screwsnutsandbolts

Hi! It's necessary to drain the coolant of the system? Thx!

I've watched your video about MAP sensor cleaning and you've disconnectd the battery prior to unplug the sensor. Shouldn't you disconnect also the battery before remove that plug here?

Hello, great video. What is normal working temperature of this engine?

Thanks, I think it's generally about 200 degrees F (95 degrees C)

@@screwsnutsandbolts Thank you for your replay. My wife's micra, similar engine, but 1.4, makes rich fuel mixture. Using ELM327 I measured coolant temperature, and it is between 78 and 82 degrees Celsius even when I drive uphill. I don't know can this be the reason for rich fuel mixture? Maybe the thermostat is bad, or Coolant Temperature Sensor is bad.

Great video👍. Can a stuck open thermostat can cause coolant loss on the k12? Please

@screwsnutsandbolts Жыл бұрын

I think it's more likely if it's stuck in the closed position. Check this link: www.yourmechanic.com/article/symptoms-of-a-bad-or-failing-thermostat

@@screwsnutsandbolts thanks for the reply can I ask a different question I have a march k12 1.2 and recently it started giving this ignition knocking sound when I accelerate lightly but when I give the full throttle no knock sound like that. I have replaced plugs and coils did a scan and no errors but the car also sometimes puts out white smoke only when the knock sound happens. What could be the issue? I thought of replacing the purge sensor too.
