Metal to metal grinding sound when turning left
Have a look at the dust covers on the back of the discs they can get pushed onto the disc face and can cause a grinding sound, normally a screwdriver underneath and ease it away from the disc normally rectifies the problem, cheaper than chasing possible dead bearings, Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Is there anyone else out there?
They are normally in the coin pocket by your right knee or glove box area have you got loads of storage ? I'd hunt round the front 1st. I've only seen one of the new shape at the garage I go to looked really nice Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

subaru impreza gx exhaust
@Vmf don't bother the n/a is pushing out just about all it can give, you'd be looking at 350-500 for a map which wouldn't really make the gains worthwhile, I'd spend the money on making it stop better and go round corners quicker Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Hi All
Hello & welcome The m & sti taxes are about the same but there's loads of places to get stuff from that are way cheaper than main dealer. Be warned it's addictive, if you haven't already look into changing the rear arb one of the best pound for pound mods out there 🖒 Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

New Owner Cube to Forester Big Change
What side of London are you ? As Neil at slowboy racing and Sean wiffin of forester parts are down there I think sean is Enfield way if that helps, The paint is thin on subaru but not really seen it on bonnet, front end does take a beating though. I'd have it up on ramps and poke around underneath if it's not been sealed or is coming away I can recommend a wire brush and an underseal of your choice, Dirty work but will be good in long run 🖒 Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Intermittent clutch judder when cold
Do you have an good indy's near you ? My local one is a 70 mile round trip but for the savings it's worth it, he's at least half the price of main dealer As for tyres any with an xl rating would be fine,. Last two sets I had were good year efficient grip and the uniroyal rain sport 3's both of which I liked and were fantastic in the wet Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

New Owner Cube to Forester Big Change
Hello & welcome looks nice ! Main thing is to run it on premium fuel and keep on top of regular oil changes, and check for rust round the suspension turrets maybe get some waxoil and treat the areas to prevent build Up of crud. Avoid any main dealers and find yourself a localish subaru specialist ad they will be at least half the price of dealer for work, once you have your head round the engine layout it's fairly simple to work on if hand with the spanners. And we're all friendly here so any question no matter how trivial will be answered Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Intermittent clutch judder when cold
Clutch judder is pretty common on suabrus, how many miles is on the clutch ? After I'd had mine replaced and the flywheel skimmed it was alot better. I'd go for a brand of tyres you like etc as the yoko's are a bit noisy and I didn't like them for feel. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Induction air pipe to turbo replacement help
If it's the oem one that's coming out get a hacksaw blade and cut it into bits, much easier, and the replacement silicone one should go in with some manipulation without having to take the inlet off Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
