sounds like its hitting fuel cut, check for leaks in the pipes. if youd change the pipework i;d sugest restrictor pill, but if thats not changed then must be somethign else

at 110k then i'd def recomend a full refresh, the berings wiull be pretty worn i expect

afraid its not as simple as getting it programed out, cos they get water into them (which is why they fail) they can lock witht he butterflies in the wrong position and stuff up the afr. you need to blank of the system, remove the butterflies and then map it out.

2.5 are renowned for dropping headgaskets. £1700 sounds very cheap for a headgasket on a 2.5. You need to full strip and replace the crank bearings as they have a tendancy to be damaged when the HG goes as they get pinched.

not mine i should add haha, clinic started for a customer in 2007, then recession hit and it got shelved, got dug out a few months back, -
Winter wheels/rims search
Tidgy replied to Justin Time's topic in Subaru Tyres / Wheels & Suspension
you could try some of the aftermarkt wheel suppliers like wheelbase etc looks like cheapest package is about £900, which for wheels and tyres isnt too bad (winter tyres) and wheels arnt awfull lol -
rear diff, hubs, dreiveshafts etc etc etc are all different you'll need a full donor car basicly

Help 2007 Hawkeye Head gasket issue!!!
Tidgy replied to YE02GOS's topic in Subaru Engines, Exhausts and modifications
as above really depends how far you wanna travel, scoobyclinic up at chesterfield built mine. where ever you go make sure you get the bottom end done as well, crank bearings are often damaged when the HG goes.
