Its not the water pump. I saw some coolant behind the power steering pump. So washed the engine today and will keep an eye on any spillages in the engine. The coolant level has not moved at all tough Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry. Found the source i think. Looks like the water pump. Will change it saturday. The bearing in that is grumbling too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cheers mate. Might as well upgrade to silicone. Any e bay shop recommendations ? What nuts and bolts will i need or is there a specific turbo kit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Turbo has heat shield. My friend donated a nice TD04 turbo. So i will change the turbo as well. Where can i buy the hose and gasket from ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

right. i can smell coolant everytime i exit the vehicle after a drive. looking at it i can see green drip marks on the downpipe just under the turbo. looks like one of the coolant pipes to the turbo. are there any common problems with these.. thanks

hi peeps.. right my forester has a japanes satnav in the top pod and a CD player in the center. i am looking to replacing the top satnav unit with a pioneer app radio. if i do that how do my speakers work? will i have to hardwire them or is there a separate amp that differentiates between top and middle unit sounds ? help

thanks for the replies and the warm welcome guys. replaced a rear wheel bearing today. driving 100 times smoother now. was afraid the diff might be on its way out.

Thanks guys. I want to lower it. Will these cool overs do ? The back is too stiff at the moment. Every time it goes over a bump the back makes a loud noise like there us no give in the suspension. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi guys.. have been in the JDM scene for a long time. I had a Celica GT4 ST205 that i sold last year and bought a 1.9TDI passat. biggest mistake. anywayz sold the vag last month and imported a 2002 Forester SG5. took delivery yesterday. no good photos yet but you can please ur photo hunger with these....... now today at work i put it on the ramp to get a good look under it......... very tidy... now i have a few questions.... why do i have GREEN driveshafts on the back? is there any significance to them or not ? also the car came with coilovers :D :D :D :D :D :D :D but it seems the !Removed! used the coilovers to raise the car, i want to lower it. my mate thinks if i turn the springs to lower it i will mess up the srping tension and load setting. so can these coilovers be used to lower it ? is there anywhere near birmingham i can take it to for a set-up. cheers
