Hi all,

I have just purchased my first Subaru Impreza WRX STi type UK and have a few questions as to the engine tick over. It seems to be slightly lumpy on idle/tick over almost as though there could be a slight misfire ... Not sure if this is normal. I've filled the car with V power.

Any feedback would be great as the car is under 3 months warranty just in case it needs to be sent back!!

P.S. Does anyone recommend any Subaru specialists in the Manchester area which I could potentially use for a diagnostics test.

Kind regards,

Jord

Wotcha and welcome Jord - yes lumpy tickover is part of the Scooby charm due to unequal headers

 

feel free to get stuck in with the forum and dont be camera shy ;)

Thanks for the reply Jay wasn't sure if I had a misfire at first! 

 

Here is a pic of my car:

Lovely lovely lovely - but I am slightly biased when it comes to a hatch :P

I think they're a real looker!....saw a silver one with the quadruple trumpets and I almost got wood!

Thanks for the comments guys! Still thinking of taking the car in for a diagnostics just to be sure everything is ok! I was looking at prosport as it isn't too far from me. 

Hi and welcome :D

 

I always found that a lumpy tick over is a subaru's way of saying service me

 

you normaly find that when its ready the revs drop to about 400 and its lumpy give it a service and should be sweet again 

Yeah definitely going to get the car checked over ASAP! Cheers 

Hello, another Manchester (very recent) owner here, hope to catch you around the area.
