  1. Too much heat! I said just a quick blast. LoL

    I thought the same about the bleed. But as you work to the sides . Give it a blast of heat stretches it and gives you more to work with.

    I think my friend Craig messed up on the off side drivers side. I'll ask him.

    I had no issue going over the bumps in the side cluster.

    My issue was wrapping over the top edge lip without getting little creases on it.

  2. The fog and reverse light no problem to do on the car. Dead easy.

    The sides, removed the cluster and disconnected it, then re fitted it to apply main part of it. Then removed it to shape side and trim down. Then put it back in place to apply more pressure to get the edges down. A quick blast of the hair dryer allows you to get creases out as you lift and re apply, use a spray of soapy water too!

  3. don't get hung up on the piston/ringland issue.

     

    it's an issue on all 2.5 models.... hawk and Hatch. but not everyone fails.

    you only hear about the 'problem' from ppl when they happen.

     

    wrong fuel used, bouncing off the red line, not serviced regular etc are all factors that can cause it.

     

     

     

    touch wood & famous last word.... my car is fine 5yrs old now.

     

    I'm still under subaru warranty (only cost £608 this yr, so a no brainer really).

     

     

    worst case scenario, throw £5k-ish at the car, gets it all sorted and you'll see 400bhp easy.

     

    £5k is a fraction of the cost it would cost me to change the car for something thats not as good as what I have.

     

    Plus.. plenty spend on their car and spend more than that on stuff they don't need anyway
