  1. This discount code is for **** - site doesn't work and have phoned twice now - currently on the phone with some moron who A: is disputing the tyre size I want because it is not in the database and B: Is saying (even though he hasn't taken the code) that is can only be used in retail stores

    🤬🤬😤

      Definitely not the card, it was following the link on the special offer banner for discounted tyres that appeared at the top of the forum screen expired end of October

      Further to that they (Austin from customer services) says they only have one offer on and he knows all and the code is not valid

      !Removed! !Removed!!!!!

  3. Is it possible to change the transmission fluid in an 2007 Auto forester just by draining out the sump plug and then refilling to correct level. Bit worried about air bleeding might be required as well 

    Many thanks John

      It does look like you have a modine cooler setup similar to my own so I would go for a flush not a drain as you will get more of the old stuff out.

      Easy enough to do but set yourself up before starting.

      I needed:

      1 bucket

      1 piece of clear tube (So you can see colour change) that is long enough to go from the modine return / output connector to the bucket

      A tall slim funnel to get to the filler hole in the trans box

      Connect the hose and put into the bucket

      Have the funnel inserted into the trans box flll point

      start engine and after a short while start filling the trans box with new oil - eventually the oil going to the bucket will become clearer

      stop engine

      top up oil to the appropriate level

      hope this helps

      Hi John - Apologies been under cars all weekend

      For auto transmissions I have on seen the flush approach described as with the pump in place that will mean fluid is trapped. Just going to do a bit of digging on your specific setup though

       

      cheers

  5. Hi mate - how did the exhaust go?

    I'm about to give the Impreza a good run on Monday - 300 miles up to Leeds from Poole through the night (ferry over from Guernsey lands 11PM) - washed, checked and stocked out today. DVD player with surround sound will be fun for the night time :)  - Quadrophenia first up.

      Hi it went well - just need a smaller diameter donut gasket but fitted straight on no problem - did an ECU reset and 70 miles in all is good. I posted more details on the project thread i use

Am completely at a loss as to why my scooby is playing up...thought was a flat battery when she wouldn't start and just kept setting alarm off, so fully charged battery, she started great on the button, but couple hrs later nothing....couple hrs after that started perfect but then alarm kept going off after she started...now back to a toss up as to whether going to have blazing sirens when i go to start her !! doesn't give me great confidence in taking her anywhere at mo...any...

      it could just be a simple as a dodgy connection to the unit or something that needs replacing so hard to tell, sorry
