Update alert, looks like there might be a Middlesex meet on May 10th: Dear mod, thanks for the detail adding, but those are the details of last year's meet! This year is being discussed now in the URL below http://www.scoobynet.com/middlesex-subaru-owners-club-434/1002476-msoc-may-meet.html#post11667350

Mine definitely say STI on them!

I've just had a look online (I wish I didn't) but according to this link (http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2618034&page=4) these beauties will fit a 2015 fine. Now I just need to try and forget I looked.

Yeah, I know that Middlesex has a club. I'll try and make contact with them on scoobynet (even though they don't look very active), and if I can relay any information back here. I don't think I'm quite up to starting a meet yet, after all my car's still stock! Also apologies for hijacking the Surrey thread, but you guys are friendly enough so I hope you don't mind [emoji1]

Not that I've seen in my short time here. Let me know if you find anything though, I'm just down the road from you.

I've noticed a similar noise recently on mine, but only a couple of times when I was stopping abruptly. I'll keep my ears open from now on though and let you know.

Apologies for the delay, the trouble with engine bay pics is the amount of time the car has to be stationary to take them! [emoji6]

I'll be there, most likely looking confused.

Fresh from its first ever clean. It was starting to look a little too much like a rally car [emoji6] Of course this is nothing that isn't already online, except perhaps the parking sensors. I don't think they look too obvious... If anybody has any particular things they'd like a photo of (inside of the glove box or something, it takes all sorts) just ask!

I asked today at the dealer. They said they'd ask Subaru. It seems unlikely that they'll find out but I thought it was worth a go!

Just to be fair with my comments about Shelly. Went back today to sort out a 'balls up' in the paperwork (the salesman's words, not mine), and got to meet Andrew Shelly. Really nice guy, who genuinely seems to care. Fingers crossed that's the last time I need to go back now!

Nope not me I'm afraid!

I have to be fair, once I complained about their lack of communication it got much better, and they've been pretty honest about how much has gone wrong- but that doesn't really inspire confidence. Surrey Scoobies sounds like a good excuse for a bit of a run, I'll put it in the diary.

Thanks for the welcome guys. It was Shelly Motors down in Surrey.

Here's a question I can't find/work out the answer to: The boost gauge has come with the unit set to bar. I'd like it to be in PSI (which funnily enough, the car I test drove had). I cannot, for the life of me, work out how to change the unit. I've been through all the settings on all the displays, googled, and nada. Someone somewhere must know!

It's a second gen. Good shout on painting one, daft not to consider it!

Hi all, My missus' Forester could use a new front bumper and grill after some twonk ploughed into it when it was parked. It's a 52 plate XT if that makes a difference to the bodywork. Oh, I suppose the colour would help: it's the classic green and gold/silver two tone. Thanks in advance, Mike

Hi all, Took delivery of my new WRX STI last week. Got 400 miles on it thus far, can't wait to hit the 1k so I can really push it (as hard as I dare anyway). Getting this far has been a bit of a mission, the dealer has been pants in every regard! I've got to go back this weekend and sign the finance agreement again as they've got the current one wrong. At least whilst I'm there I should get the rest of my boot interior back after they ripped it out to fit the parking sensors (after having to call someone in to do it for them). This is after I had to take the car back the day I got it (the day AFTER handover was supposed to happen with wet seats as the protective treatment wasn't dry) because the right hand tracking toe was -1.2mm front and +1mm back. It pulled left just a touch. Anyway, I'm rambling now... Mike
