  1. it's probably just a sensor that's gone down mine did similar when my fuel pump went, CEL came on for misfire on cylinder 4 hope it's something easy to fix
  2. if you lived in the algarve for 5 years WHY come back over here??????
  3. hi mate welcome to the club did it limp on the way home from when you bought it? was it a private sale or garage? try and get the fault codes read and see where the fault is
  4. surely if the turbo oil feed has been bypassed the turbo would have seized up a long time ago????
  5. I'd get this problem sorted before you start putting anything else on.
  6. Flippin eck that was close
  7. i think about 5k too a buyer will be looking at £500+ for 2 keys and locks to make the car secure, and an engine fault that could be a £50 fix or an engine rebuild
  8. the foz that gambit posted is the sti/stb variant. they are about 330bhp as standard B)
  9. went out for a run today and the CEL came one again, and the low fuel warning light, even though the gauge is reading 3/4 tank :( looks like a buggered fuel level sender gauge :(
  10. hi mate welcome to the club
  11. it's good to see one being restored rather than broken, good work :)
  12. I've just had a look on the halfords site, they recommend 5w30 , IMO that's too thin. try opie oils
  13. i think 10w40 or higher will be fine
  14. i think most of the one's in that arena must be trailer queens :( I'd love to go down my high street in any of them, to me you have a car like that for the looks that you get. you don't get many looks when it's sat in a heated garage.......
  15. looks good could do with de'tango'ing the headlights though, it looks loads better
  16. hi mate martin is spot on at Sheffield Subaru Services, he's the only person i trust with mine, been using him for over 5 years i had a similar problem with my blob, i would press the accelerator and nothing happened, then press it a bit more and it would jump to nearly WOT. it was the throttle body that was sticking. once it was at 2k rev's or above it was fine though
  17. this is one of my favorites
  18. he should know what is covered in his policy, if the keys need locking up, he should lock them up what will happen if you pay out and get 2 new keys cut and then one night the scum bag that pinched your keys find's your car. he can unlock it and you will only hear it when it starts up and drives off........too late, it's gone and then you phone your insurance, they say 'didn't you have your keys stolen last week?', then 'sorry you're not covered' it's a !Removed! situation, but he's a businessman, he's happy making money, but when something goes wrong, it IS his fault, he should foot the bill you left it there with 2 keys, you should pick it up with 2 keys
  19. the seat has soild supports, so the seat won't drop that much i was looking at different options for my work van :lol: , i ended up with a pair of vibe black air 6x9's in sealed boxes and a JBL 2x75w amp, I'm running them with the LPF, so now the std 3" speakers in the dash just do high range and the 6x9's are mainly subs, they integrate very well and are nice and punchy
  20. it's not your fault that he didn't lock the keys away. he should know what is covered on his policy, if it says they should be locked away, he should lock them away, end of were the other customers keys locked away? if i had left my car there and my keys had been stolen, there is NO WAY that i would claim on my insurance or foot the bill myself. even if he is a friend, it was his fault the he didn't lock your keys away, its not your fault and he shouldn't expect you to be out of pocket. why didn't he just say they were locked up????? sounds like a prick to me!!!! if he doesn't mind you being out of pocket, he's not a friend anyway
  21. Gutted, it will be covered with his insurance, the car was in his possession in his garage. There is no way you should have to claim on your insurance. What has he said to all the other car owners that have had keys stolen??? Another thing, I would not be settling for new keys, I would want new locks fitted too. They will have got each reg number and maybe addresses, so they can go and pinch the other cars whenever they want to.
  22. In his first post he said it IS turbo. There should be some mods around, not sure about the ECU though
  23. hi mate welcome to the club
