Thanks buddy i will check this out much appreciated

Hi all just trying to get some info on how I would know if my drive shafts are going on my 2013 Subaru Forester SJ MKIV would I be hearing knocking/ clunking sounds when turning? Getting so many different mechanic opinions and this is the latest one I have been advised ? thanks all

Hi Mate thanks for the heads up I wont ever use Subaru direct again as the last service they did for me I told them i was hearing knocking from front left side when turning, they checked and told me the front lower arm bushes needed replacing at a cost of over 400 quid due to labour. I got a mechanic friend of mine to change them for half the price and he advised me they did not need replacing as wasn’t that bad, and guess what….. the knocking is still there!!! So now looks like might be the CV Joints and nothing to do with the Bushes. Not a happy chappy but out of warranty now so will use other garages.

Hi all looking for recommendations for a Subaru service in and around the Weardale area? Thanks

Ok I’ll try it different speeds. Thanks for your help much appreciated

HI Buddy will try that see what happens, would it be more apparent if the car was cold or does it make no difference?

I had the front lower control arm bushes replaced as Subaru told me they were worn on its service. Has reduced it but not stopped the knocking sound when turning? It’s not a rattle its a definite knocking/thud, thud, thud sound

Hi All hope your well I am getting a knocking sound when turning on my Subaru Forester 2013 I mainly hear it when going around roundabouts, any ideas what may be causing it and costs to repair? Thanks all much appreciated Fletch

Hey all Any recommendations for servicing in the Bolton area just imported my 2.5L forester and in need of 60,000 mile service Thanks all Fletch

Hi Looking at anywhere i can get a price for a Tow Bar for my Forester. Would prefer OEM to after market but any advice on either would be most great full Thanks all David

HI all hope you well Does anyone know of any garages that do window tint matching in and around Bolton UK? I have damaged one of my rear small windows tin on my Subaru Forester 2013 model? Thanks in advance David

Hi All Has anyone been able to convert their Forester digital displays to MPH from KMS? I have a 2013 forester i am bringing back to UK but import company said they can only change the dial and the cost is 199 quid to just change the dial? I have attached my screens Thanks

Wow that’s a lot cheaper than here I will wait till it’s in UK and get it rechecked it’s got to have and IVA and MOT so that will bring it back up if truly bad thanks buddy

According to the service docs its the front lower control arm bushes that are showing wear and advised to change car has done 60,000 miles and dealer serviced since new so should be in decent nick what price would it be?

Hi Mate They are the front lower control arm bushes showing wear and advised to replace Thanks
