Fuel filler pipe for 01 Micra

todolist · 29-07-2018 12:14PM #1

My 01 Micra failed the NCT because of "Extensive corrosion" to the Fuel tank
filler neck pipe.I've tried a few garages but they can't replace it.They want me to get the part and they will fit it.Nissan don't do the part anymore.
What should I do? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Nissan don’t do the part though.

OP go to a scrapyard and hopefully they’ll have one that’s better than what you have and it fits.

Is your car a Japanese import ‘March’ or a regular Euro spec Micra?

It is a regular Euro spec Micra.

As I said It's a Euro spec Micra.If I went to a scrapyard I wouldn't have a clue if the part they gave me was right or not.Iv'e asked a few garages but they want me to source the part.I'm really badly stuck because the insurance runs out very soon and If I dont get the part it has no chance of passing an NCT.

Just get one off the same year, chances are it’ll be fine.
