Faulty Fog light a MOT failure?
One thing I can't fault my MOT tester for they seem to use common sense which I like it was the rear licence plate bulb on mine didn't even give me a warning past it and said it's blown that was it :D And I was under the impression if you have a light on the car with a bulb out it was a fail under the new rules regardless of location

Nice one mate sorry about the delay but glad to hear you got it finally :D Sorry to hear you will be putting an order in for another one lol ;)

If it's a light on the car and it doesn't work it fails unfortunately. mine past with a license plate bulb out just because he knew I could change it and he said he's not that petty :)

I'd have a look must be a split pipe perished bit of rubber hose or rusted clip I can only guess.

MOT emissions
It's a 1st for me I've never heard of anything like that before where about was it leaking from I can't see why the emissions test can even make it leak I'd have thought it would have cut out before it back pressured forcing any out unless when they was under it split an old rotten pipe

JapShow Finale Sunday 12th October 2014
Yeah yeah thats what you say now :D But confirms to me we need to bet getting all events up straight away next year or as soon as they go live with the dates available.

Where is my knock sensor ?
I think it's near the throttle body down at the side of it maybe need to take the Topmount off to see it, but I'm not 100% sure so hopefully Savage or tlag might be able to shine a bit more light on it for you :)

JapShow Finale Sunday 12th October 2014
Cheers mate I agree with the full Facebook thing, and will always say it has helped destroy the internet. I think it allowed a whole bunch idiots with no internet skills the ability to use it, thats now spilled on to other parts i.e the increase in trolls :( on youtube forums and so on. I think I will try speak direct with the organizers early on to try get the event sign up's really early on with full sign up and payments. I think we will need to be posting the local meets we hold and the events to bring more on the forum. What I find annoying over 2k members and 10k on facebook and still being 2 members short for the minimum amount It's more frustrating than being at a strip club and not being able to touch ;)

Thats what I've been doing with the local clubs that I know the owners/founders if you like of the clubs, to join us and make them the regional coordinators for that area. But somehow have found it very difficult to get people onboard, not sure why they're worried as the forum is generally pretty active now from looking at the logs and we get a **** tonne of traffic past through on a daily basis. Highest I have ever seen it in 2 years anyway so must be a good thing from our point of view :) Maybe I have to keep chipping away at them like my victims chase them down until they tire But as you have said Stants by doing it that way I'd have hopped if any of the members from both clubs us and the local club can help us with doing the local meets and if they're not the bigger events like japfest and so on join us. I mean I have to keep reminding myself it is the 1st year of doing the events. We also have no set structure with organization of the events either. Getting the lists done in the new year started might be better with payments forms so it can all be done really early on :D

Exactly mate, my comment wasn't to offend anyone so sorry if it did. I think you might be right with the events I was expecting Japfest 2 to have more stores selling a lot more stuff, possible still suffering the after shock of the recession. I'm going to go with it wasn't organized as well as it should have been loads left early as well I always think thats a bad sign.... Not from our club we was one of the last lot to go. I agree with Facebook and a majority of pricks use it I've seen what get's posted on our clubs wall by a few Steve even removed a comment I made to one guy after he felt the need to comment on a picture of someones Subaru. I think one of my other frustrations is I can't get stuff done on the forum as quick as I would like. the Selling section. the Flag's ect ,ect :( With the local clubs and organizers of meets I've always tried to get them to join us to help with inviting people from here to the local meets so we're used to broaden the search if you like :) So we can help each other thats how I got on to finding out the local clubs have been struggling. Two of them are in cities too, just don't want to drop any names :D

JapShow Finale Sunday 12th October 2014
I think people will always follow the crowd, hell look at Iphone, like sheep with that damn thing even my Daughter lol. If it's local to them and there mates are doing the same thing bound to happen. But I've spoken to some local clubs, say local not near me but I know the guys who run the local clubs. One of them even said to me it's the 1st time in 8 years he's had to cancel the local meet and hasn't decided when the next meet will take place that was 2 weeks ago :( So I'm not sure myself what to make of that, if Subaru ownership has taken a turn for the worse or it's a bad hiccup that everyone is facing. I can say that has come from 3 local Subaru owners club Admins if you like. :( I'm on the fence with the full facebook thing maybe I've been left behind with it lol, But I'm not a fan of facebook knowing everything I do. Might be able to tell by my comments feeling deflated with my personal stuff as well as trying to sort out my relax time with I.e this club. But I think it's our 1st year of events as a club and I don't want just imprezas on the stands :D But I have to question myself maybe the good do die young :D And I won't stand on my own local clubs stand so for me I won't join anyone I'm not part of. But won't say others shouldn't :)

JapShow Finale Sunday 12th October 2014
Nice one mate I'm on Lincolnshire Subaru owners club none of them seem to be members :) But I don't mind either way. For me Subaru ownership should never be about rivalry between clubs or mods on your car. We all wave when we pass a fellow brother in a scoob, work as one is a better way, if they have members that want to talk **** fuckem thats the type of people that was never welcome here in the 1st place and I hope they sell up soon ;) . Only thing that !Removed! me off is that they had a member come here and say Hi, less than 30 minutes later started spamming about them, now I have no problem at all we're not an Impreza club we're a Subaru club and welcome anyone here. I don't hold the full club to account be wrong of me to judge. But didn't even give us a chance to reply before going on to say how great it was. :( Maybe after 9 years I've started to see the bad side of Subaru ownership I just hope I'm wrong and Scooby.net isn't just a one off
