Re: 1.2 DIG-T - Oil loss

the admission that 1litre per 1000km is acceptable is quit outrageous . you could refer this to nissan customer sevices amd see what they say . myself i would reject the car if this is all correct . my own car has used one litre in 7000m , which i find excessive and unprecedented. :shock: :shock: :...

Re: Winter preparation

So whilst I was waiting for the wheels I bought some TPMS sensors.

Interesting to hear Tom40my, thanks for the reply. I'm going to look into alternatives for the Conti's but it's always slightly risky straying from the standard OEM fitted tyres.
