    Micra K14 Engine oil filter cover stuck

    Thank for your advice. I have looked at the Haynes video which shows its a normal right hand thread. Before I start an oil change I go for a long run to get the engine hot, unfortunately this did not help with the problem.

    Hi Doing an oil and filter change on my 2018 Micra K14 engine. Does anyone know of any method to remove the plastic oil filter cover. It's so tight that it's distorting the plastic nut on the end of the cap. I feel if I put any more pressure on it, it will just round off the corners. Why do...

    Atag rubbish boilers???

    Heating for the holiday

    I'm would like to thank everyone for their advice. I think the consensus is to leave the heating on a low setting, sounds like good advice too me. I take on board the point not having the under floor pipes lagged is wasting money, but without wrecking my house taken up the laminate flooring...

    Thank you for your replies. My insurance only requires heating if my house is left more than 60days. Yes the frost protection is on for the boiler, I'm not sure if this will stop pipes freezing in the house. I have not lived in this house for long and only had access to the under floor in one...

    Good deduction, I will check the lock shield valves and open the trv's to maximum, see if that makes any difference.

    The thermostat boiler icon is showing most of the time. The flow is 59deg and return 48drg. It is now 2:00pm and the radiators are finally hot, so I will have to wait until tomorrow morning and do your checks when the system is starting up.
