lee1981 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 Where is the actual key...?? mine was just the fob?? or am I been stupid...?? 1
salsa-king Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 yep, you're being stupid.. in a nice innocent way though. ;) was your Fob a chucky thing with three buttons on it? Open/Boot/Close? If i can find a pic I'll post it up.. later 1
salsa-king Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 best i can find if the cover over it http://www.japanparts.com/images/ImageFromDB.php?base=1&no=45193 it has a chrome little knob on the end you press and the key comes out, just in case you have a flat key fob baterry etc. then you can disarm the alarm by the press button key pad in the car. You know about the Key Pad? 1
salsa-king Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 like this.. without the sticker on it lol http://www.japanparts.com/images/ImageFromDB.php?base=1&no=22350 you see the hoop on the right? just next to it on the left is a little chrome clip... you side it to the side and the key is in there
lee1981 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 Ah ****!! Can I order one from dealer with the original key from the chassis number?? Or will I get a blank key??
salsa-king Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 might be worth a try. Nottm Subaru Derby (Beechwood) Subaru might be worth seeing who offers club discounts, I know the above do for MidlandScoobies memebers
Scooby Pete Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Also make sure you ask them to assign a new "number" to the key and car so the old key won't work. 1
Gambit Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Yep I agree most important thing really is to make sure the old key is useless.
salsa-king Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 as long as the fob is sync'd to the ECU for the immobiliser/keyless entry. Even if someone has a key, its not going to be driven away.
Rick 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 From what ive read of this thread it defo isn't the head gasket or ecu.When you switch the ignition on in most cars the fan comes on automaticly telling you there is a fault.The fan being on like that is like limp mode the car protecting its self.If this doesn't happen the eml will be on and drive in limp mode.To me the problem is with the wiring loom in the engine bay sounds like when the work was done on the engine the wires have been trapped in some thing.Id replace the engine bay loom and have done with it.The guy you bought it off defo new about this problem and fobbed the car off to an innocent buyer.You would have a hard time proving this.
Gambit Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 He sorted that problem out mate. It was the loom in the end. His new problem is he had the key stolen from a garage that was doing some repairs but it's also his mate who can't afford to cover the costs and isn't insured :(
Martin959 Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Sell it, and buy one of the old scoobies... ;) there are simply inmortal... xD
