Hi all. I am a proud Nissan Micra owner of a K11 (1999 plate) and a K12 (57 plate.) We have just got the K12, only done 30k on the clock, drives a dream but makes a funny noise when engine idly running. It's like someone had started a fairly quiet mini power hose under the bonnet. It lasts for about 5 seconds then stops, then starts again, etc. Have no idea what it is. Any suggestions??
Jay.
