Driving home last night and my engine made a loud POP, blew the plug out :(

Not sure which ones they are, been in for over a year now. Still waiting on my bill for all the work I've had done as well.

On my trips to London I saw a few Subarus... ones I remember... M6 South - Tuesday between 3pm and 4pm, Silver classic at the Toll junction, heading down M6 rather than Toll. Blue Blob or Hawk in slow lane saving fuel A14 East - Sunday between 2pm and 3pm, Silver Legacy M6 North - Sunday between 10pm and 11pm, Silver classic at Burger King services just after Junction 14

Might try some of them, got a day off this week so can get them changed. Hopefully get the car back running properly!

I had iridium plugs in mine that have done 10k miles, sad times! Think I won't bother with such expensive ones again. What you going for?

Oh I know the feeling :(. Mine is doing that, only on full load though. I'm craving the power but it wont let me have it!

Got my car back on Friday, having to be gentle with the turbo for 100 miles. We tried on full throttle boost to test and it still bogs down, misfire :(. Need to find out what from now, I'm guessing plugs have been damaged when it had the bad coil packs. Also blew an exhaust gasket. Feels like it's never ending!

Just made my day!

Playing both at the same time? Like some super gamer?

I will get to play some farcry tonight! Looking forward to it, i'm not that far in but really enjoying it :). Glad to hear you enjoyed it all the way through!

Been to London to build an exhibition stand, all done! Back there on Sunday to take it down. Still don't have my car back :( UPDATE: Been sent these pics... The De-Cat up pipe has arrived, this will be heat wrapped before being fitted. Also the turbo is back from the specialist, been rebuilt and it's ready to go back on :). Will give details of what has been done later.

WoW took part of my life and seeing the new expansions and raised level cap just makes me sad because I miss playing it :( lol. I've got a pretty decent spec pc but I prefer console gaming, just seems more equal? Think that's the right term

Ice??? Better not be any ice yet, I don't have my Subaru until later in the week Update on the Subaru: 1. Turbo specialist guy said the turbo is in very good condition for a 100k mile turbo ;). Quite a bit of place in the spindle so he's going to replace the bearings and make it good as new. 2. Up Pipe has 2 x 6" cracks near the turbo flange that could very well be causing my problems, got a De-Cat stainless pipe on the way :). This will get heat wrapped! 3. It's had part of the heat shield removed from the manifold as it was very rusted and falling apart, replaced with heat wrap. 4. Service with some nice oil has been carried out. 5. Prodrive Y-Pipe is being fitted. 6. 2 new coil packs have also been fitted. 7. Hopefully having some new speakers put in as well while it's in the garage :). This Subaru is going to be a different car when I get it back I think!

Right my turbo is off and sent for repair, has play in spindle so the impellar is rattling. This however isn't the problem it seems, after removal of turbo a cracked up pipe has been found. Now a new one will cost stupid money but a de cat however, wont.... HELP! (Thanks ;))

What's one of them? ;)

Still without my car, sad times :(. Everyone... don't take your Subaru for granted, show it all the love in the world :P

I still play this some days, it's a game that plenty of practice does help. Unfortunately I'm an Xbox fan boy ;)

Got to work on that, need to keep up the good audi name right? ;)

I'm more worried about brain damage as I keep headbutting the dash because the brakes are really sharp!

Afraid so :( Right been looking at worst case scenario of turbo knackered... looking at these: Turbo Injectors Fuel Pump Remap What you reckon?

Bad news... well some good, coil packs sorted misfire BUT there is a rattle coming from turbo and it's not spooling :(. That is probably what caused to drive bad. So now Subaru is off the road for a while. Looks like i'm driving an Audi A3 for a bit, sorry guys :(

Far Cry 4 is worth getting, just one of those games you play and don't know where to go next because there is that much to do lol. There is no end in sight atm...

Well just on my dinner, having a fun day working on the Subaru :). The misfire is a coilpack gone knackered, another is on it's way so ordered 2 of them coming this afternoon costing £120! Decided we will service it as it's due in 200 miles anyway. Got it up on the ramp and found the heatshield rattle, it's the manifold so taking the knackered shield off and just going to heatwrap that bit of exhaust. Noticed my rear shocker is leaking so need them as well, don't think we will be doing them today.

Loving the guy martin reference there gambit! Massive fan of him myself :). His new series was awesome! Sad news for me... driving home, decided to push it round a corner, when I straightened up and booted it the car just coughed. Couldn't work out what it was trying to do so limped it home, when I started her up to show Simon it's only running on 3. Hopefully this is just plugs but it has Iridium plugs which are good for 60k and it's done 8k! Tomorrow is going to be fun, no car so no work :P

Dammit... after crying with laughter I now need to buy the game! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDCd_19ZRII
