Have good news, sorry better late than never, syncromesh and pinions were replaced for the reverse gear, parts cost 300 Euros in total, hand labour
was brilliant, I didn't go to the car dealer, so far so good, reverse gear inserts well, but goin' back to neutral point is a little more difficult, but got the hang of it
You won't believe this the day after gettin' the car back from the mechanic, I had a water warning light flashing, I was like OMG!!! it turned out to be I changed the standard water cap for a 2005 sti water cap was a bad mistake, silly billy!!!
Now I've got serious issues with the DPF (Diesel Particle Filter) I think it's a scam, they come defective and break down after guarantee, cost of a new one
2000 Euros or get it cleaned "properly" by "professionals" It was cleaned before but I think th error was eliminated and a additive was added to clean it at the dealer
From what I've heard DPF's are notorious for their breakdown in a lot of diesel cars, if I ever get a chance, my next scooby will be petrol engine, no doubt about it. Fuel Milage with the new boxer diesel engine is way below impressive, it's from another galaxy if you compare it to the manual. I'm not lying right, I'm impartial about cars, I'm not one who hides problems or lies in order to give my car a "better" impression
The 2.0 Boxer Diesel engine is good but it has a mayor drawback and that's its lack of torque at low revs when compared to VW engines, the engine is so slow below 2.000rpm, then after that it comes to life
Well, hope you've enjoyed the post
