Cheers man I've got a feeling that 02 code might come back but I suppose atleast the exhaust issues out the way, would like to know though if it is the tgv sticking or a sensor will it hurt anything running it like that a while?

Anyone ran on jet ultimate?

As long as it is >97 ron you will be ok.

These can be fussy on fuel though as some people who run V-power say that bp ultimate makes car run horrible. I had mine mapped to BP Ultimate as it is the nearest >97 ron petrol to where I live plus this allows me to run other 97 ron fuel. Mapper told me if I ran 95 i should just take it easy until I can fill up with the correct ron. If I had it mapped to 99 ron he believed I might get an extra 5-10 bhp on the dyno which you would not notice.

 

Lower octane will allow detonation and this will destroy your car.

Yeah jet ultimate is 97, I tried it as the next fuel stations like 20 mins away, that's a bp, wasnt sure if jet had station in england I'm from Cumbria but stay in scotland, I'd not seen one down in gods country before😜

I cannot be bothered to look through the threads but I am sure Savage said front sensor. Anyway glad you are on the road.

Happy belated christmas an happy new yr to you mate you out for new yr?

Same to you. I will be a having a drink at home with my daughter. Mum has her at Xmas I have her over New Year.

Must be the Wagon as I find it the total opposite. Corsa's don't even bother. Lots of people ask about the car though. As I have said before everyone likes a Subaru from all ages I find. Kids love the scoop I guess.
