New to me 2011 Outback with SAT Nav. It has 2 video and one audio connection, but in trying to set up, the touch set up screen is greyrayed out so you cannot register another Audio/Video source. Any one has one of these and been able to connect devises so that you can connect through AUX or Bluetooth sources. Many than ks Ray

David It is a long time ago since you wrote this interesting article: However just in case have any of your stock of EGR valves left. Thanks Ray

Hi everyone. Hai to all you Subaru owners!, I have been a member for sometime, read the Forum often although post rarely. My 2010 Outback 2litre diesel had a DPF warning light, 3 three weeks ago, it would go off after a few minutes, then the warning light started to flash and the engine light came on. I live near Shaftesbury, a local garage offers a regen, the first checked the onboard computer for errors, no errors other that a blocked DPF, so regen done apparently successful but 700 miles later exactly the same problem, so seems to be an underlying problem, maybe the EGV valve, clogged injectors etc. Does any garage, etc that they would recommend. I noticed an excellent article here from David in Hamshire... fitting a new EGV valve, I could do that but want to be a bit more confident before buying a new one of those. Would appreciate any suggestions Thanks Ray

Thanks appreciate your reply. Yes I have looked at LUK and cannot seem to find one, there are plenty for the diesel engine of the same car....well not quite, I think the diesels started around 2008 did'nt they?. The OEM part number is 12345AA002. Thanks anyway

Hi everyone, Have been qa member for some time but not regularly on here. I have to replace a clutch on this car 146k miles and I believe that it has a Dual Mass Flywheel. 1. Does anyone know where I can source an aftermarket Dual Mass Flywheel - main dealers quoted £1300. 2. Question, could I fit a Solis flywheel, if I could find one!, but I think that may need a conversion kit. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Ray

Thanks for you thoughts Ray

Hi to all you Subaru owners. This is Ray, new here and in Wiltshire, near Shaftesbury. I wonder if anyone knows of non main dealer Subaru garages for repairs, servicing. I presently have noise on depressing clutch which probably means bearings, which inevitably leads to clutch plate, perhaps also new flywheel. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Ray
