  1. Fiddly pain in the backside, but replaced the ballast myself after getting lots of advice from other Foz owners, resealed the headlight and so far seems sorted 🙂 Service needed soon so I guess Alan Jeffreys might be the place to go...
  2. Just took a trip to Engine Tuner to ask about a couple bits... turns out they don't touch HID's 😑 Which is a bit of a nightmare seeing as my ballast is probably dead... I assume ballast because I changed the bulb with a spare I had and it didn't work, plus the headlight has condensation inside...
  3. Hahah or that, but i meant more as to why its not like "visit MrB's place called ___ at post code __" etc.
  4. Ahhhhhh ok... that makes sense as to why it's a bit hush hush on here then!!! Well, as someone who never owned a Subaru before and went from a Focus 1.6tdci to a 2.5 Forester XT, I'm keen to learn and behave! I've (we've...wife and I 🙄) owned the foz for probably just over half a year. It's developed a couple issues recently, dead window winder on the drivers side (inconvenient with our Christmas travels and ferry check in booths!!!), and then a dead low beam on the passenger side. I had a spare bulb in the car which I tried, but alas, no joy, the condensation in the headlight leads me to believe it's the ballast as well. I'd like to try and dry it out, but without a garage (or a driveway) to work in, I think I'm going to have to visit the pro's!
  5. I realise this post and my message come across as very: "AJ is the best and I just need a plain ol' garage to fix my stuff" Not my intention at all, it's more that I know AJ specialises heavily in modifying, tuning etc and as someone who has not done much modifying in my car passed changing light bulbs, I wasn't sure whether I'd find myself a bit out of place..🙈
  6. Ohhh I didn't realise he had a place! Def interested in hearing from him then!
  7. Cheers Jay, seems to be! They seem like good guys, just wasn't sure if they would be best to go to when I want something interesting doing, rather than for.just bog standard servicing sort of stuff.. ..as in, I know they're specialists and when you want something special doing, you pay a price, just hope that price doesn't float across to the more normal stuff.
  8. Thanks bud, I messaged him. Hope I can find somewhere! I used HiQ for my van, but they're a very generic sort of place...
  9. Hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows of any decent garages for general servicing, small repairs etc? (In the Plymouth and surrounding area) I have used engine tuner (Alan Jeffrey) for a couple bits, but I'm not sure how they price for servicing/repairs, as I know they're keen on the modifying front. (Maybe they're good for servicing, but would be good compare to alternatives). Cheers Ian
