Thanks for the reply anyway man, every little helps 👍

Hello, recently started getting a loud squealing on cold start up on my 02 wrx, lasts for about 30 seconds and then just stops all of a sudden. Took the belts of, looks like a bit of rubbing on the side of alternator belt. Also the pulley on the alternator, when turned by hand makes a small squeak, could this be the cause of my problem? Thanks.

Don’t know if this is any help but recently fitted a sports cat to mine, failed 1st mot and really had to heat it up before hand when taking it back the next time. Managed to pass but just by the skin of my teeth so don’t know if there worth the money imo.

Won’t be to bad if I can get them for that price, yeah both on the off side. Just emissions that are holding me back, is it just the downpipe cat that I would need ? Can’t find any of these stock exhausts on eBay.

Thanks for replying everyone, yeah it says cv joint gaiter insecure and the lambda reading outside specified limit and carbon monoxide excessive. I did buy a sports cat thinking it might work as well. At least I got 2 weeks of driving since last problems 😂

Hello, I went in for my mot with my first Impreza and unfortunately failed on cv joint, ball joint and emissions. Are these easy enough to replace also does anyone on here have stock cat on here at all ? For 02 wrx Cheers
