  1. I have them on my WRX and they make a minor clicking noise which has to be the J hooks. I be interested if yours does the same.
  2. My Hawk the aerial is included with the rear window heater elements, that what I thought anyway. I know there is not external aerial. http://opposedforces.com/parts/impreza/en_g11/type_39/electronic/audio_parts_antenna/illustration_2/ Not sure what this is telling me
  3. Not sure if this helps but my 2007 WRX allows the water to get to 97C before the fans kick in while idling. Temp drops to 86C and this repeats. Some numbers for you to compare. I monitored this with OBD reader as I just replaced my radiator. Good luck
  4. Good luck I do know that Scooby's can be a pain to bleed. Fill slowly and bleed from highest point, if EJ turbo that not from the radiator cap. Even the dealerships do not know this basic procedure. Always bleed from highest point.
  5. I put a Cobra one on my Hawk as the stock one broke. It just passed the MOT they had to get it warm before they did the analyser part. If you can run it with lots of boost to get CAT hot it will do better. A lot of sports CATs need this. Got 2nd MOT soon so I will find out. As Tidgy says they seem to be hit and miss as others have no issues. Cobra do state it will pass an MOT.
  6. https://akppro.ru/en/magazine/article/tr-580.html If it is a CVT then I guess as many as it wants. Continuously Variable Transmission
  7. https://www.westwayoils.co.uk/collections/engine-oils Anyone heard or used these before.
  8. 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.
  9. He did not road test mine and that something I never thought about until speaking to you. I agree that should be done.
  10. 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.
  11. Could it be eddy currents off the big electric motors. Skimmping on shielding.
  12. Is it worth replacing the water pump while your at it too, if you throwing money at your new toy. Pictures????
  13. 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.
  14. 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
  15. Mine still going strong. Maybe I should not tempt fate
