Hi in my 2008 Forester2.5 turbo petrol I have the CEL / traction light and flashing cruise lamp on. Subaru dealer some 70 miles away . Local garage did diagnostic came up with the seized valve fault. They tried to free it but no joy very expensive to renew with no guarantee that will fix the situation otherwise I would just go ahead. I see several cases where some have just removed the valves and blanked of the connection plus tweaked the circuit so it does not affect the cel. What concerns me on that method is the legality though whilst I can't see that a valve that only opens for 60 secs can do much about overall emissions have no wish to break any rules. I am way past my capability date for doing anything myself on the car so have to depend on garage. Any advice /comments would be aprreciated
Thanks
