oh its 2007 1.5r impreza

sounds great, so if someone could nip over to County Durham and sort it out fab, but I have to reply on garage, they stripped the brakes down and cleaned them out, and said everything that should be free and moving is. The only thing they could see was the hand brake was moving, so I take it that would move the brake over to be touching, and generating the heat, which is more on the passenger side, and this side does the squeaking, does this sound like a cause? The second garage reckon the same nothing was sticking Thanks alot

been for a second opinion and they say all is well, so i'll just roll with it, and see about replacing the hand break cable. Than you :)

thanks, no don't do handbrake turns, or use hand brake for stopping, looks like i'll have to give another garage a go, I've been recommended one, cheers x

hi. thanks for the replies, brakes checked and everything is free, nothing seized, handbrake cable was a problem, which has been sorted for now, but will probs need replaced, but unable to source one, not even from the dealer, if anybody knows how to obtain them would be good. how much heat should you be getting on the backs, as they are still getting warm. thanks for your time

great thanks for the info, its done 90,000 miles

hi Thanks for the reply. Its an impreza 1.5r, 2007 plate

hi, going to sound like a typical women driver, so here goes. should you be getting much heat in your back brakes, and warming your alloys, they seem to be squeaking a lot too. Sorry don't know how hot they were getting before they started squeaking, as didn't check. The garage have checked them, and say the shoes are fine, and couldn't find anything wrong, but cleaned then up, as there was a bit of rust. Going back to garage on Tuesday, so any help would be appreciated. Thank you

All sorted now, they changed the oil for a thinner, but same spec oil. Thanks for your input Judith

thanks, I did check they would use the rite oil before I took it in, best get back to the garage and see wat they say :-)

Hi, can anyone point me in the right direction, as to why im getting stuck in first, then unable to get second gear, usually first thing in morning until car gets going, just had front n rear dif, gear box oil changed, would this have anything to do with it, impreza 1.5 r Thank you

great thanks, rotection-film looks like a really good option :)

great, thanks for all your comments, maybe best left without one, just hate stone chips :-)

just wondered if anyone has used a bonnet bib, and if they are any good, or poss cause more damage thanks
