  1. They were for my 2009 Forester but may fit other vehicles. Best check with your Subaru dealer as part numbers changed a couple of years ago
  2. 2 x genuine Subaru inner tie rods part# 34160XA010 2 x genuine Subaru track rod ends part# 34161SA001 Price is £140.00 collect from Glasgow or posted at cost
  3. The best colour. Part# 35022VA000 Looks stunning and used for less than 1000 miles so in unmarked immaculate condition £65 collected from Glasgow or posted at cost
  4. Selling two genuine Subaru oil filters as I've now sold my 2009 Forester Part number 15208AA110 These will fit numerous diesel engines, please check that they are suitable for your vehicle before purchasing Looking for £25.00 collected from Glasgow or posted at cost
  5. Thanks Jay, it's possibly one of the best available. I'm a bit of an anorak when it comes to my cars and spent an absolute fortune using only genuine Subaru part servicing and maintaining it. The paintwork took me almost 2 weeks to detail and I was astonished to find there was a blue metallic fleck to the paint when the detailing was completed and the sun shone on it, I honestly thought it was a non metallic black paint job A few more pictures
  6. Top of the range 2009 Subaru Forester XSn 2.0 Boxer diesel, 6 speed manual gearbox, Obsidian Black Pearl paintwork. 2 former owners. Full service history. MOT to 5th September 2018 (no advisories) 41MPG Front suspension bushes recently replaced using genuine Subaru parts. New clutch and pressure plate less than 3000 miles ago. 4 x brand new genuine Subaru alloy wheels and Michelin Cross Climate tyres in totally unmarked condition. 4 wheel alignment carried out at 82500 miles Last serviced at 82000 miles when fuel/oil/air/cabin filters were replaced with genuine Subaru filters Brand new Westfalia removable towbar fitted but never used Full leather interior, heated front seats, satellite navigation, bluetooth connection for phone, reversing camera, reversing sensors, tinted rear windows, rear luggage cover. 4 x genuine Subaru winter rubber mats (will include 4 Subaru carpet mats in good usable condition) This has been my second car for the past two years and therefore not been used much. I'll be sorry to see it go but it's time for a change.
  7. One of the quickest ways to wear out an engine and components is to start the vehicle once a week for 5 or 10 minutes. The engine never gets up to full working temperature therefore causing excess wear and tear, the carbon build up inside the engine will eventually cause poor running issues and excessive fuel consumption. There is also the added caveat that if it is a diesel vehicle the DPF would soon fill up and never have the chance of burning the soot causing further problems. Best just stick the battery conditioner on once every week or two for few hours to keep the battery topped up and when you do take the vehicle out don't just take it to the local shops and back, go for a good run to get everything up to temperature
  8. That's when refitting a battery, if it isn't fully charged the battery management on the Audi will throw an error and not allow the car to start. Again nothing to do with this situation
  9. To connect batteries in a series, you need to use jumper wire to connect the negative terminal of the first battery to the positive terminal of the second battery. This would give you a 24V output, so has absolutely nothing to do with this situation
  10. No you'll be fine connecting onto the negative battery post
  11. Get yourself a CTek charger and if you don't use the car on a regular basis you can charge the battery once a week for a few hours and all should be fine. Even though they are advertised as 'intelligent chargers' do not leave it charging the battery for weeks on end as it will eventually destroy the battery. Also your ECU will be fine, you don't need to have it reprogrammed Link to charger here... Click
  12. Thanks again, looks like I'll need to do a lot of reading up now
  13. Great thanks stants, I already have a genuine Vagcom lead for my Audi so can I use that for the Subaru and if so where do I get the software to run it on the Subaru? I'm not very clued up on these things so a link to software would be great
  14. Thanks for the reply stands, do you mean Vagcom?
  15. Looking for a diagnostics tool for my 2009 SH Forester diesel. Would like something that will clear faults and able reset oil dilution values after a service Would prefer something that isn't phone based What do you guys recommend?
  16. I fitted Michelin Crossclimate to my Forester over a year ago and they have been faultless in that time. They've had several trips into the Scottish Highlands during the winter last year through Rannoch Moor and Glencoe
  17. Not that I'm aware of, it's really a pretty basic crap system with no adjustments.
  18. OEM sensors are Waeco labelled as Subaru
  19. Thanks for the reply, I'll look into your suggestions and post the results
  20. 2010 Forrester SH with genuine Subaru brakes but as I only use the car occasionally I find the brakes poor compared to my other vehicle, it seems the pads don't have enough stopping power to give me confidence in them. Does anyone know of any upgraded pads they could recommend
