Obviously the last 2 don't happen the first time you do it, but doing these things repeatedly, especially if it's frequently greatly increase your risk. And I've done all of the above too. But not since I've been doing safety professionally as I've see. The results of these sorts of things, not pretty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'd have to disagree about the fuel economy, I use mine on motorway quite a bit and driving around North Wales and I get around 56mpg generally and have had 79mpg on long motorway run (hypermiling) think that's pretty good for 1.5tonne full 4x4. The 1.6 CRV is only around 60mpg extra urban and that's only 2 wheel drive. There have been no issues identified since 2012 though I know there were issues in the earlier engines. Go to any website about any car and you'll see all the same stories, all manufacturers are the same it's just you only notice what you own. Go and get a Toyota and see how often that gets recalled. Honda had the same issue with clutches burning out on civics for several years they never admitted it I had 2 burn out in 70,000 miles and I had a fight on to get it sorted at £2500 a pop. Not saying the subaru diesel is perfect but I do think some perspective is needed. Steer clear of pre 2012 diesels would I think be good advice Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not here yet, but should come with the free wax stuff, will try it and see. Hopefully will come tomorrow, was going to clay the cars this weekend so good timing. Will be trying out on s white and a black car so will get a good feel if ok. Probably try the new wax on the black car as it'll be easier to see if better than my current regime. Will report back next week Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Glad nothing serious, but potential. Three things to consider with PPE and working on cars. 1, Wear safety specs as described above not just when grinding but also when lying under your car and looking up. Just asking for something to fall in your eye otherwise. 2, wear gloves if you're going to get oily or greasy, these substances can cause dermatitis which can be progressive and horrendous in some cases. Surgeons type gloves are fine and you can buy a box of 100 for a few quid or cheaper online. Same with brake fluids etc, and diesel! Always use the free gloves when filling up a diesel. 3. Don't put oily rags in your pocket for convenience, there's a strong link between this action and cancer of the !Removed!, as the oil seeps through pocket linings. And you don't want that! Obviously this advice is for the lads but I would imagine it's not s good idea if you're a girl to do it either. That's it, done my safety bit now, and I'm not even getting paid for it.

I wouldn't let those two muppets near my lawnmower let alone something like a WRX. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Took the plunge, ordered 2, one for each car. Maybe time to leave the old clay behind, we'll see. For £25 I'll take a punt. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looked at the reviews and people seem to like these cloths so I might try one out, might hop on tonight and pick one up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We're all good, missing you on Forza H2 though. Actually get to drive mine tomorrow, apart from popping to coop, it's wen parked for nearly a week, might take the scenic route home [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There's possibly some recourse through trading standards based on the "fit for purpose" requirement, assuming you're UK. If not there must be something similar in other countries. There's enough evidence on the Internet to confirm the issue. Not sure if anyone has tackled it this way but I think it's the way I'd go. To have a significant issue as you have in the time and mileage you have could be argued the item was not fit for purpose, whilst it's fine for the plug itself not to be under warranty as a consumable the issue of it not being able to be extracted is a design issue and is therefore a warranty issue. I'd be o. To subaru with that view point even if you didn't buy the car new. I have a diesel XV but it's a 2014 model and there have been no issues recorded regarding glow plugs that I can see since 2012 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Surely if it's only done 36,000 miles and it's less than 5 yrs old and this is a known and recognised problem, that subaru should be able to look at this as a warranty issue? I'd certainly be pushing in that direction. As for whether you have a diesel the general thinking is you need to do more than I think 16000 miles a year to balance fuel and purchase costs in favour of the diesel for similar size engine. The mileage you're doing would indicate s petrol might be cheaper long term option. That doesn't detract from the fact that with that sort of mileage on the vehicle it should have this problem. I'm no expert but there are others in here who will have had or encountered similar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Might have to have a look into that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We had 7 wireless items and that pretty much stuffed the Internet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Max wireless items that you should use is 5 according to All the experts so yes, you had no chance yesterday. Never got into Final Fantasy, I did try it but I couldn't get in with the turn based fighting Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lol, well I was shattered so about 10:30 i retreated to my bed. Struggling to get off Minecraft at the minute, Forza is taking 2nd place. I would try wiring xbox though it's very heavy on the wifi bandwidth, everything works better since changing it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Too scary, me a big baby Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And it doesn't matter which subaru you have its the same Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's double what I pay now and I doubt it does 60mpg, well I doubt it'd do it if I drove it, you'd just have to put your foot down all the time [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've driven an XT 2.0 Turbo on an off road track, it's quite impressive what it can do, the hill descent assistance is very clever. It's very quick even on gravel. It did feel a little heavy though, but that might be because I'm used to an XV. It's a very nice car. I'm not sure i could justify the tax or fuel though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I Maguiared my wife's can up all shiny and clean. Couldn't do mine as back was giving some jip, looks like mines next, won't be long until I'm claying mine again Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had one start "dear mister Man, I be represent you best intents" it got worse from there to the point that I didn't actually know what they were trying to scam me with Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I imagine it'll be cvt, the XT turbo currently only comes in cvt, no manual gearbox. Though it's pretty good, only odd thing is you don't hear it change gears like a traditional auto Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, just the Forester [emoji20] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, got the impression that the XBone guys aren't really that interested Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If that last one was anything to go by, it should be fun, you on later for a bit of a blast? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Even the wife is quite fancying one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
