It is just a WRX, nice one at that. High tax, high MPG etc. I cannot see it being worth loads as Tidgy says, so many STI and special editions to compete with.

He did not road test mine and that something I never thought about until speaking to you. I agree that should be done.

Wheels falling of is super strange and not being able to solve it is even stranger. I know off topic but still to do with car sales. My father signed up for a new seat that was supposed to be delivered last august, then this april and now he been told it is this month. In the mean time Seat have said for the 1st year the car will be registered with them. Ur WTF. This is to stop my dad selling it at a profit and still undercutting the current dealers price as the price has rose that much. Some insurance companies will not insure the car in his name due to this. Now the insurance ombudsman is involved so he may be waiting longer. At every point they have tried to get my dad to cancel. Of course they want him to cancel so they can sell the car at current price to someone else.

Could it be eddy currents off the big electric motors. Skimmping on shielding.

Is it worth replacing the water pump while your at it too, if you throwing money at your new toy. Pictures????

Never miss an opportunity to plug Duncan. What did he do out of interest? Is there a thread somewhere. Fingers crossed 25000K later still doing fine but you keep putting the wind up me. BTW my reasoning for using Duncan was based on the fact he did it RCM which was also fairly local. I expected RCM to at least have some standards. I guess they just rent him the road.

The coolant is only an overflow not a reservoir, there is zero pressure in the overflow tank. As the water expands it overflows into the container and when it cools it sucks it back in again. In the winter it will drop even further if working correctly. "Found that the coolant level actually rises to the max line when warmed and will drop when cooling and cold." is correct behavour if not using any. Get a OBD2 scanner to see the fault code. Good luck

Mine still going strong. Maybe I should not tempt fate

I have the same thoughts. As it just a WRX then maybe not. STI's and specials are going to be the ones people look for. Mine is WRX 2.5 Hawkeye with 45K miles like you 2 owners. Mine I use as a Daily Driver so will depreciate anyway. I think it will be taxed till it is worth nothing. Cities will charge us the earth to enter which will make them less valuable. Oxford is changing to £10 a day soon for example. The rest will follow and towns. As yours is highly modified I am not sure but mine is just going to plummet in price I believe sooner or later. Mine being 2007 model is already double your car tax nearly. You really need one in your life to be prepared to pay that these days and that just increases every year. Also 97 ron or higher is going to go up and up and be harder to find. My problem is for 10K (same sort of money I spent on the WRX with some extra) what can I replace it with that will give me that fun/smile factor. Mine is mapped and the mid range now is addictive. Modern cars frighten me, so many electronics and no much skill for this in your normal repair shops (and Subaru dealerships stink) and there is only so much I can do myself in the street outside my house (if I can park it there, that is another story). Selling now or soon is probably a good idea for me but I cannot do it. I will miss it when the day finally comes.

My experience with Local dealer is horrific, you could not make it up

My Hawkeye WRX 2007 just done 50K miles and the rear knocking noise has started. Original parts. I would not mind lowering it a bit but it my is Daily Driver so I am not turning it into a race car. What do any you recommend as a good replacement front and back? Is the pedders kits any good? Thanks in advance? It really annoying when I have people in the back. I will spray with grease to temp stop it.

10K on same oil damn. I guess if you tow something etc that is reduced a fair bit?

Add bleed the the cooling system. My local dealership bleed my Hawyeye WRX from the Radiator cap. Not the highest point and therefore pretty pointless. Shame my dashcam recorded it all. It gets worse too
