Ive just fired up the 300 after a 3 month lay up, went first time. The oil presure guage has stayed at 0 and the boost guage is over to the left and neither are moving when the engine is run, any ideas ?

Disconnect the battery and trickle charge overnight, refreshes the battery.

The final outcome is that the French authorities will not accept the imported car and therefore he cannot get it registered, looks like we are together for a while longer, bright side is it appears to be appreciating asset at last. cheers guys.

I thought it was strange, however this guy appears legitimate, he is coming over on the train and is paying in cash, £ notes, he is also arranging for the vehicle to be licensed across there. The point about it being worth while travelling here for a right hand drive car is well made , I can only assume that he is starting a collection and yes they are cheaper here. he seems to know the game and is a professional journalist, so live and learn.

The car was imported from Japan 1n 2003 but unfortunatly when I bought it I was not given any import paper work.

So the current MOT is not required, or a certificate of conformity from Nissan Europe ?

I have a contact in Northern France who wishes to purchase my car, which is a japanese import to the UK in 2004. He then wishes to drive it back to France and register the vehicle there in his name. What documents will I need to supply to him ?

Sorry meant 235 on rear.

These are Stern alloys split rim and the rears are running 245 45 17 with no problems if that helps cos I dont know the off set.

I have 215 45 17 tyres on at the moment and want to know if I could fit Pirelli Asimmetrico 225 45 17 91Y P Zero Tyres without them touching the arches on a standard 90 auto tt lwb import. Cheers.

Is there an air filter any where on the car for the ventilation/aicon. system?

Brilliant fellas that explains it then, thanks

Can some tell me why my import has -7 to +7 on the boost gauge instead of 14 ?

Give it rub over with some old engine oil.

I was always told to leave the leads on for ten minutes after you have jumped it off to allow the alternater to settle, the damage is usually done to the diode pack on the rear of the alternator when the leads are removed.

Check the spring contact at the back of the bulb, mine was corroded out of site, when sandpapered and vasalined it was fine.

I still have a badly leaking targa panel on the drivers side, tried everything but now suspect that the whole thing leaks. Has anybody got a non leaking targa panel preferably somewhere in the Midlands.

Thank you my friend.

Can anyone tell me if you need to take off the door card to lift the height of the drivers window on the adjuster ?

Thanks Baz for the help Saturday, the targa panel fits perfect and guess what , no drips, another example of the help and assistance received from members of this forum. Keep up the good work and all the best for your future plans.:wheelchair:
