Hello all... the wife's Outback 2.5i has gone tech... oil light on, then died... and we've not been able to start it since... I've flashed the starter... just a whirling, so it's not engaging... then popped a socket and bar on the crank nut ... and, well, it's knackered... can put my whole weight on it without moving... Can I have some recommendations on specialist to rebuild the engine (120k)?... I'm based in Bristol and only just started looking around... had one quote already of £1,500 plus VAT and the fluids... seems a little spendy but hey... if that's what it is... thanks on advance Si

Hello all... Totally new to all things Subaru... The wife had a Hyundai Santa Fe 06 plate. - worst car we've ever owned!.. So I've sold it and treated her to a £300 Impreza from that auction site... And tbh, it's brilliant... 1993 auto, 1.8L, 5 dr hatchback... My question... The auto box sometimes holds gear at around 30mph... The self-diagnostic thingy notes a fault with the TPS (Throttle Sensor)... I'm struggling to find one this side of the Atlantic for the EJ18 engine...because I think this car is an import... Is the 1.8 rare? Will any of the others do the same job? ie: will the 2litre engine one work? Ta muchly in advance Si
