    2.2 SXE back box

    Am I ok to use the back box silencer from the DI models, rather than the one for the SXE? I can get the silencer for my SXE from Nissan at £180 upwards (with the VAT on top) shipped from Japan. Other suppliers can get me the back-box for the less powerful 2.2 for about a quarter of this...

    LH seat belt pre-tensioner (airbag flashes)

    Ok, my airbag light has annoyingly come back on again (after clearing it a few months back, to pass MOT). The diagnostic flashes are 1 long then 3 short, which the service manual says is the passenger side, pre-tensioner unit. Is this something you guys have seen before? I have tried the reset...

    Older "insert type" oil-filter removal?

    I've got one of these on my SXE and I haven;t ever been able to remove it. Are there any tricks that can be shared for shifting it? It feels like the bolt in the centre should be a 16mm but looks like it's been rounded off by someone also trying to remove it. I've purchased a chain tool that...

    Size is important!

    Or so my girlfriend kept telling me, so I have upgraded to a Primera P12 53Plate SVE. The Missus will be taking my SXE off me for the duration, until she can buy a sexy 05plated 'Mera SXE that I have my eyes on. Currently ripping out my Yatour bluetooth/mp3 thingamebob to throw into the Prim...

    Having trouble getting the cable off, so that I can swap out calipers from car to car. I can rotate the springy bit using a spanner. but can't get cable off. Is there a trick I'm missing here? Is there any household item that would make my life easier? edit. returned to it after a coffee and...

    Where to start with airbag warning?

    I've just had the black N16 fail her MOT due to the SRS warning light being on constantly and was hoping for pointers on where to start. I know there's a common fault on the seat connectors and that I might need to check the glove-box, however I have read that the light being on constantly...

    What have I done? Where does this connect to?

    I've just found the time to replace the fuel-filter that was removed by an AA mechanic. that went smoothly but at the final moment, I noticed a rubber hose that is dangling in the wind and cannot fathom where it should go. It looks to be connected to the gearbox area and the hose comes up to...

    Stranded. Car won't start. (2.2SXE)

    Hey everyone. what a night. On the way to finish a huge job, my little beast lost all power and rolled to a halt. "Torque" said error p1273 AA were called and manually primed the fuel filter, got me going again and I just got to my client (about 3 miles away) as car rolled to a dying halt...

    air-fuel ratio following an uprated fuel pump

    Little shocked it's taken me so long to ask this really. I think I joined the forums about a year ago and had "The Black" for about half a year. When I bought the SXE, she'd already had an "upgraded fuel pump" fitted but the previous owner couldn't tell me any more than that as it was the...

    Misfueling

    (feel free to move to the "Numpty thread" section) Just putting my mind at rest really, in that I haven't knackered my 'Mera. Last night my flat-mate accidentally put 7ltres of premium unleaded in the (almost empty) fuel-tank. I immediately spotted what he'd done and before turning over the...

    HKS Panel Filter?

    Which panel filter is it I need? HKS Europe couldn;t answer my question. They said they know nothing about diesels as the Japanese market doesn;t sell them. Looking at piccies, it looks like it's the filter for an impreza. AM I right, is it a "70017-an001" that I need for the 2.2 dCi's? (edit...

    yd22DDT or yd22DDTi?

    Well hello to one and all. I have tried to purchase a clutch for my 2.2 Almera and the ebay seller says I have a yd22ddt rather than the ddti engine. How do I confirm this myself? My car is an 03 plated saloon with air-con/trip computer/stereo controols on centre console. The acoustic cover...
