  1. Hi mate i will have that invoice me a paypal for £6 delivered and i will pay cheers Phil..
  2. I no of someone who went to pick up there car after Duncan had mapped it at a local garage and it wouldnt start and someone else was brought in to sort it aka Andy Carr who i only here good things about....i dont think you can ignore peoples view like piggsniffer as he,s telling his experiance and that would defeat the object of the forum ?but if you hear a lot of bad experiences from people they cant all be wrong and again if you hear a lot of positives of tuners etc i would generally go with that as we are all here to help each other get a good service and avoid any crap we have gone through with bad work 😎just my 2 cents 😂
  3. Best oil around at the minute is millers nano drive in tests its proven to give a few extra ponies due to less drag have a google i was impressed and have started using it 😊also used shell helix which i think engine sounded the quitest from cold on and fuchs are also top notch ...i think most people use 5/40 oil as 30 goes a bit thin in summer okay for winter though.😎
  4. Good on yer ,i didnt get my scooby until i was 41 now wish i had done it sooner 😆nice looking classic that as well enjoy😊
  5. I use the world famous 😉autotecnica buxton owner Adam and top mechanic jamie only people i let touch her if i cant be bothered doing it myself😎
  6. When i was at car show this year i heard someone say lets go and look at those ford focus,s pointing to the subaru hatches he was only in his thirties😂remember all hatch owners i didnt say this 😇😇
  7. Fingers crossed nice project there for the new year😀pity partners arent sympathetic to our hobbies and needs ha ha or both..
  8. I put direnza lowering springs 30mm with bilstein shocks on my 206 gti track day car they were progressive handles great but make a bit of a noise where the closer springs are wound when driving tried fitting springs either way round made no difference after googling progressive springs are known for being noisy some cars worse than others dont no if i would fit again to my daily driver as noise really got on my !Removed!😤want to change my scooby shocks and or springs but not sure what to get want it slightly lower and a tad stiffer but not so my teeth hurt getting to old for that😂😂
  9. I think the abs kicks in to early on my scooby and any other i have driven...if your having probs on your abs i no you havent stated what but on all my cars its nearly always been the reluctor ring on driveshaft either corroded loose or damaged teeth,they come with a new driveshaft but you can just replace ring they need a torch to heat up and shrink when cold to stay on😎
  10. I always let mine idle a few mins to warm up windows defrost would do a bit longer but neighbours would kill me 😆 dont think they appreciate our flat four soundtrack...
  11. Never seen one like that before..follow Auky,s advice sounds about right😎
  12. Only way is a code reader get one off ebay for a tenner obd 2 ,can then get code and find the fault and turn light off worth every penny😎
  13. Thats just were mine went i fitted a eurocarparts one for £60 as a stop gap to a better one but still going 3 years on😎
  14. When i got my exhaust i did a lot of Google and phoning specialist and the majority recommended 2.5 over 3 inch bore piping there answer was 3 inch loses to much back pressure unless running high power ...i,m not saying 3 inch is wrong and 2.5 is right its just what i learnt,if you google it you will see thats the feeling regarding subaru,s among the gurus😎in reality theres probabley no difference your happy with 3 i,m happy with 2.5 and life goes on 😂😂
  15. 2.5 inchpipework is more recommend unless going over 350 bhp as gives more low down torque v35 turbo and a map should make a reliable 320 330 lts if you do a lot of heavy launches and are not very sympathetic the gearbox can go bang on a standard car😎😎
  16. He may have done a decat in the upipe which means you need a a resistor to join wires and stop check light have a google loads of info..
  17. Could be a offset issue these companies sell some weird offsets and list them for cars have a good look on the wheel should be stamped somewhere i,ve seen them listed in the 30s for offset and origanls are in the 50s so can put a stain on components..
  18. Hi mate would love to go sent you my details only an hour from me ....best get the car polish out😎😎
  19. Absolutely gorgeous looks like you have put a lot of time and small details into but worth it 😎😎
  20. I got some all weather nokian this time last year really good in wet and that bit of snow we had kept them on all summer as haven't had time to refurbish my summer wheels with the new parada spec on, on amazing tyre I think for the limited snow we get good all weather tyres are the way to go work in low Temps good if we have a mild winter and good in the heat..these nokians have a bit of a bobbly tread pattern so the odd bit of snow we had they were amazing that's just my opinion as I don't think summer tyres are great with the really wet winters we have been having😎
  21. I got mine off ebay £50 each wing but prices vary and cheaper if you collect..
  22. I might be interested in buying it if you want to give me your no we could have a chat and if you could send me pics of all round the car,I, m in stockport so to far away to come and view would have to get a company to trailer it here cheers Phil..
  23. As others have said you need to no iff it's low on boost first and then looking at service items and maybe get a compression test done to check health of engine...
  24. Did they replace the right sensor had this on a peugeot and dealer kept messing about and it needed both replacing for each camshafts...
