Siluro

If the wheels and tries are ok and what you describe is not normal then it must be the steering rack i guess. Are all the rubber gators intact on the rack.

I thought that but he has had new tyres which should have made a difference.

You should not be seeing steam. The cooling system keeps the coolant from boiling by keeping it under pressure. Your losing that pressure if you seeing steam from that hose. Fix the leak.

Waze. Google bought it due to the community updates. They now use the same data as waze for cameras.

It does seem tobe for a Subaru if you google the number. Just make sure you get the right amp output. I think 90amps for yours not sure. You can get 75amp ones under same part number from copies supplier (which I would not touch).

Front 1st same thing

Based on Subaru's recent history I would not doubt it though.

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

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.

You could check the AFR's with a bluetooth OBD dongle and android app like Torque. You basically do not want it to lean out under power and revs. I am not a mapper but you could look at some of the map graphs on this forum and see what AFR they get compared to yours. But Tidgy is right until you get it checked by someone who knows way more than me drive steady.

The connections are good as the voltage drop is low. Based on these facts I would suspect the Alternator. The fans for the AIrcon sounds normal to me.

You have a OBD port underneath the steering wheel near your knees. Plug in an OBD reader and get any codes (pending codes). I bought a cheap Bluetooth one and it works. Handheld ones work too. https://www.amazon.co.uk/OBD-II-Engine-System-Diagnostic-Tools/b?ie=UTF8&node=2486228031

If that is the O2 sensor on the far right i would say the cat section has been replaced with decat.

If I was you I would take the car to a Subaru specialist if any your way and get it done and check for any other exhaust parts that are almost dead. Judging by what you found already there maybe more. At the moment your getting nowhere fast. They would do the exhaust and be able to map it if needed. Scoobyworld for example do away with one Cat and say it is MOT friendly (I just mapped mine standard, was going to do scoobyworld, still got and extra 90 ft-lbs). They map it and the extra bhp is noticeable and is worth it. If you are trying to do it on the cheap then maybe not. Could be cheaper in the long run this way. I posted a link from Scoobyparts that should work with no cat and the advert says MOT/Map friendly. Give them a call or is that a bit too pricey? Do not use any cheap copies of parts, always OEM or good aftermarket or it will become really expensive.

Wow that is a nice looking example. Do not think I have seen I Hawkeye Wagon in the UK. Your right there will not be many like that but you will be surprised.

Oh jesus i missed your last post somehow neilt1978. He THINKS its the alternator. You have a parts replacer there by the sounds of it. Now I know why Mr B went off on one.

I wish Mr B was my local Subaru mechanic sounds like very safe hands to me. If you have been replacing bits for this problem then I would consider a new mechanic as they are not doing very well. Buy yourself a multi meter and save yourself some money. I wish I had the space and tools to do all my own stuff. Plenty of resources online.

Also as MR B rightly points out a bad connection going high resistance could cause this and a fire.

I would start with battery and get that tested If all is new. What volts is it at now? Need to get it properly tested though. Sounds like a car thing not a Subaru quirk.

I did not realise alarms chirped at low voltage, makes sense. Either the battery is bad (doubtful), completely wrong rated battery (cold cranking amps) or is being drained as Mr B suggests or the starter motor is drawing too many apps. I had a Fiat Punto that would not start after being left from warm for 4 hours. Fiat could not solve it nor could an independant garage. It turned out to be starter motor which I proved by doing the same test. Since new starter fitted car was fine. I read so many stories of this issue on fiat forums where Fiat had actually changed the injectors and all sorts, sensors etc.. One Poor guy spent thousands and all he needed was a refurb £80 starter motor. The starter motor was drawing too many amps when at a certain temp which made the ECU freak out and not start till the >4th attempt (stone cold car would start first go). I believe the heat soak from the engine would twist the body of the starter as the end not attached to engine would cool quicker and make it work too hard (my theory anyway). Electronics can be an bugger at times and most mechanics are mechanics not electricians. To test starter motor a garage could check the amp draw with a meter if it too high I would suspect the starter. You can look up the proper amp draw for the starter motor somewhere online.

Ooooh I fancy that. Think hawkeye maybe different not sure. Hawkeye typically a 2.5 litre flat.

It still could be just the alarm. If the battery is new then based on my theory it could be the starter motor on way out as that would also drop the voltage if it pulling to many amps. All guess work. The test would just tell you that the alarm is freaking out but not if it was the battery or the starter motor. Again did you by the right rated battery?

Just a point what's the rest like. It is xmas and as a bundle it may work out cheaper in the long run. I do feel for you mate. Not the best start to Subaru life.
