Yeah that's using API some of the best :) Give them a call on 01926614333 and ask for David :) They only use multi layer metal head gaskets from the STi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 also try MD in Gloucester, a head skim is also recommended as part of the work http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/5513-m-d-performance-in-gloucester/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tlag Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 A head skim is essential or the work will need to be done again in a few months. API and MD will know that though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Yeah what I said to you on the phone but worth checking by having the tests done least it's peace of mind. Fingers crossed for you mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I'm sure it will be fine I can understand the concerns. I know he had spent cash on the car and really hope he wouldn't have sold it onto you knowingly with that problem. Even if I still think the airlock should have been sorted before selling the car. But anyway let us know tomorrow mate :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
