Abnormal Tyre Wear
Any idea what the tyre to wheel arch gap should be? I've had a look at the trailing arms. I can twist them but can't move them in any other direction. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

Abnormal Tyre Wear
The old WRX has recently started wearing the inner most edge of the rear tyres on both sides. I know it's quite recent because I have had the wheels off often over the past 6 months. Is this a sign of any particular bush giving out? The tracking was checked a few months ago and was spot on supposedly. The fronts look fine. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

Noise from the rear
Sounds like the diff to me but could be a CV joint. Easiest option is to put it back into the garage. Let us know the outcome. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

ICP Drive Shafts
Has anyone tried Import Car Parts drive shafts? I was looking at J & R. They are very cheap but I've been put off then by bad reviews. ICP are twice the price but the next cheapest for brand new. Thanks. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

If you can hear hissing, there is probably still a leak somewhere. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

Don't forget the 2.5 is £500 PA road tax. Twice the 2.0. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

Am I making a mistake?
Yes. I bought my Blob Eye from a dealer in Wales 2 years ago. 69k miles on the clock for £5k. Not one owner though and not PPP. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

Sounds like a good car and good dealer. A bit over priced. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

Steering Wobble
You don't always get a vibration through the brake pedal. When I had a warped disc, the steering wheel did shake quite violently when braking from speed but pedal was fine. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

Steering Wobble
Hi DDoc. Have you looked at my Wheel Wobble thread? I have the same symptoms still there. I'm trying to ignore it at the moment. I definitely had a warped disc caused by a stocking calliper piston but even with new discs, I can still feel it at those speeds. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk

Caliper bolt seized
You need a decent hexagonal socket. Give it a good couple of wacks with an impact driver. Then get a breaker bar or wrench extension on it. Jack it up and turn the steering wheel for maximum clearance. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk
