Hello, As a new member i thought id come into the Junk room say hi and just ask peoples ages. I have just turned 51 (but don't feel it) so from here i gues its all down hill....lol Am i like the old git of the forum.....lol

The car. ......Decenber 2003 2.0L B4. Having the option of a setting that lets you use an alternative fuel sounds good.

Thank you Scoobyghost and Tom_gr7, ...Nice coments All i need to do is keep it that way. I have a lot to learn regarding the car and any faults that come with a Legancy, it's a 2.0L B4 by the way. So far nothing happens when i press the open boot button on the phob, so that needs looking at. It's the first car i would claim to be beautiful.

Thank you, It seems a bit too clean to me But then it's the best car i have owned.

My car does have an eco mode button.

Hello new member from new member...lol

Hello all, When i had a Range Rover a chip was added to the engine. It was just a small box of tricks that could be turned on and off which gave another 30 BHP when needed for towing. With my Suburu i'd like it to be tuned for economy but with a similar power box that i can turn on or off when needed for performance power setting, Have you had this done and how well does it work?

Here we go, lets try and upload... <iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://s1176.photobucket.com/user/r1ride8/embed/slideshow/After%2030%20April%202015"></iframe> <iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://s1176.photobucket.com/user/r1ride8/embed/slideshow/After%2030%20April%202015"></iframe> <iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://s1176.photobucket.com/user/r1ride8/embed/slideshow/After%2030%20April%202015"></iframe> <iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://s1176.photobucket.com/user/r1ride8/embed/slideshow/After%2030%20April%202015"></iframe>

I had a look and there is a cover over the manifold which has boxer written on it but could not see any red. Almost everything looks new. I could not find a turbo but there must be one somewhere, when i get the time i will take off the engine covers and have a closer look. One thing i can say about the car is that it is a dream to drive.....as a new Suburu owner if the car does not give me too much trouble i could be a long term owner/ convert.....lol

Thank you. I looked at that company, the pictures tell a story of everything getting coated. I certainly dont want everything except the exhaust undersealed......just the underside of the floor thank you...lol

Hello all again, Last post today. As im always busy and don't have a lot of free time i'll need to get some work done by others. The first thing will be to have the uderside of the car treated so any recomendations not too far from dartford would be very handy. My legacy being an import needs it, so I'd like to get this done before the winter set in. Thank you.

Thanks for reply theonlychoice, You mabe right. I wonder if anybody else agrees with you, it's always good to know what you have wheather its good or bad...lol Hopefuly i'll get to the bottom of it.

Hello fellow members, My 2003 Suburu Legacy has a small metal badge on the front spoiler = sti. This may be simple to most people but iv'e not really taken much interest into the specifics of cars before...lol Iv'e a lot to learn so there will be plenty of questions on there way to you.....lol I don't know what this indicates about the car? What should i look out for to prove its sti status? (whatever that means...lol) Does it mean sports turbo injection?

I will eventurely do all that, thanks tom_gr7

Thanks for all your replies on the above subject. I will look over them again and take note of recomendations when the time comes for the work. I'll have to ge the underneath looked at then go for underseal protection first.

Hello, Now i have a Suburu maybe i can get some help from members on here as regards the best place to purchase parts for my legacy. I was into 4x4 off roading and there were a few specialist suppliers of Land Rover parts who sold parts without ripping you off, so im looking for the same service from a Suburu parts stockist. The brakes seem a bit spongy.

Ok thank you.

Cheers coordinator. well thats one thing out of the way.

How do i upload pictures?

Hello Ash, Im a new member also. Mike.

Hello, New Suburu legacy owner here. I have noticed there are a few post regarding car light on the forum. My legacy is a fresh import but im not sure if the lights needed to be changed for UK roads, can anybody help me here? The wiring or chip has been converted to mph. The car does have a M.O.T provided by the dealer/importer i purchased from. The key phob boot open button does not work, is this a common fault? Im sure someone will know the answers so i'll say thank you in advance...lol

Cheers for posting, It looks like i'll need to do both jobs. So where do i go for the re map and how do i know the jobs been a goodn done by a decent garage......sorry for stupid questions. Underseal of wax oiled is another question. Any recomendations would be great, im around the Dagenham area. The reason im a bit sceptical is that iv'e been cought out with crap mechanics before charging a fortune but doing a Sh$* job. One of the reasons for joining a forum is to get some good advice from people who know what they are talking about and meet people with similar interest.

Thank you. I shall upload some photos soon. Maybe weekend.

Hello Regional coordinator, 1...It looks like there are some plastic covers on the underside of the car that will need to come off but i can try and get some quotes for undersealing, finding a decent trustworthy place that will do a good job here in the dartford area is gona be hard. 2...Do many people do this? (map for fuel change) The car has had the speedo sensor changed to mph. Subdriver.
