You durty !Removed! you 😆

Happy days !!! 😀

Pioneer AVH-280BT Double Din Bluetooth Car Stereo

Cor blimey they are pricey, halfords do one for 159 quid but it don't play DVD, but they do another that does for 250 quid, wonder if the 250 one will do it

Just realised that about twenty mins ago lol 😜

She's a beaut !

As scoobs said, you really ought to change discs and pads together, especially on the front

I rate it, put it in both my Sierra cosworth engines after I'd run them in and I used to really thrash the living death out of them both, a lot of people say it's snake oil, all I can say is, it never did any harm

Welcome aboard 😊 That's a good lookin subaru ya got there mate 😎

Looks mental !! another one here wanting to know what head unit to use 🙏

Got in it this mornin, IAM straight back up to 1 lol i did chuck a 750ml bottle of slick 50 in it last night tho

IAM = ignition advance multiplier, or DAM in earlier models, it's a rough timing correction 🙂 The limp mode is where the ecu limits boost to 7psi waste gate pressure and runs a richer fuel map and the car is supposed to be in limp with an IAM of 0

Well mine pulled a load of timing yesterday at low revs and dropped my IAM down to zero, so I have still got issues with it, even more weird is the fact that the IAM is zero but the car isn't in limp mode, it's still boosting 19psi, supposed to go into limp mode at anything under .25 on the IAM ive gotten to the point where I just have to laugh about it lol

I keep forgetting about opie oils, will have a browse

Sounds very much like knackered discs tbh, how much meat is left on your pads

Right peeps, what oil filters are we supposed to use, I just get a pattern one when I buy the oil, I'm hearing that we should only use the Subaru blue ones, but on googling that fact there are a lot of people saying absolutely don't use the Subaru ones as they are awful

Didn't need to as there was no cel on so the car still thought it had a working maf, if it was a case of the maf being a bit under par but not actually broken mine would have ran the car fine

Welcome

Yeah, I think that's the next thing to check tbh, possibility of tps sensor also, I've not had any dealings with the iacv or whatever it's called on a scooby roo so can't be of much help mate, I'm pretty sure it can be cleaned tho

Nice to meet ya mate, shame we didn't sort it, had to go home and polish my car after seeing yours lol mine looked awful

If you have a boost gauge it may show up as fluctuating boost as it does it, really is an easy job to do the waste gate arm, the ball ache is taking the turbo shield off which is a pain on its own, but you also have to take off the intercooler (I think) to get at it, I suppose the other thing it could possibly be is the boost solenoid and restrictor pill, maybe both could do with a clean with electrical contact cleaner, there's stuff on google for the doing of above operations, basically just connect your green connectors together under you dash/steering wheel/foot pedal area once you've removed solenoid, taken pipes off (remembering which goes top/bottom, with the connectors connected and ignition on the car will start cycling the fans and that solenoid will continuously open and shut, while its doing that you buzz the cleaner through it, and restrictor pill is in pipe coming from turbo snail (I think) and pipe needs to be removed and cleaner squirted down there to clean the pill/brass restrictor

Yeah same as mine mate

You can check wether the pumps working on a cold start by listening to it, it should sound like a Hoover for about 30-45 seconds and then the secondary air system solenoids should close and the Hoover noise should get louder for a few seconds as it builds pressure and then it should stop blowing/turn off, when this is done you can then disconnect the rubber pipe that feeds the secondary system from the snail of the pump while the car is running to make sure the solenoids have shut and that there is no exhaust gasses blowing back through the system (not good)

I didn't have a cel when mine was seized, but my ecu kept resetting itself every couple of days, yours could be waste gate flutter, that's another thing that will cause hesitation coming on boost as its trying to set the pressure but can't as its flapping open and shut, you can adjust the length of the waste gate arm to put a little more load on the Spring and if it is flutter due to spring fatigue that should sort it
