coilover pro's & cons
The suspension on the foz is dead, So havinh to make an enforced chamge means I am within a budget. My initial thoughts are seeing as the rear is sat lower than the lowering kits I've been looking at and the front isn't much far off go down the re using top mounts and geting new shocks/springs all round. But seeing as the bc setup for the foz is only a ton more do I splash out and go down that route And get some shiny new top mounts included in the price ? Whats the ride like on pillowball mounts is there a massive increase in nvh? Is it worth it and do they come set up with default camber settings or do I need to factor in an alignmet session into cost ? The car is never going to be tracked so do I save my money and go with the cheaper option ?

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Been keeping an eye on the os rear shock as the botrom of the strut has been getting dangerously close to the top of the tyre. Decided to measure the ride height of each corner and its all over the place so shopping for a full set of shocks and springs tonight :-D

rear speaker sound connections.....
Do you have a multi meter ? Check to see if they are live 1st if so maybe worth chopping the ends off and wiring them up. I take it the head unit has 4 channels out ?

Possible head gasket problem my06 forester xten
Have you checked the expansion bottle from cold ? Should be half full and when hot should be ober the top line, do yiu get warm air out of the vents, if everythings fine I wouldn't pull the heads apart just yet as it's an engine out job at some places. Maybe it's an airlock, they are notoriously hard to bleed properly.

To be fair I was talking to a non driver the other day and they were telling me a daily bus ticket is nearly a fiver and weekly about thirty quid. Not having to pay for parking in town I'm more than happy to put 25-30 quid in a week for my commute, drive where I want and with who I want :-D

No worries, I looks like it sits towards the rear of the gear box and plugs in if you have access to a ramp maybe worth seeing if its damaged or has become loose. It's a little brown plug. It's a plug and play part so I'm sure if it gets worse and you can get it you could prob change it yourself
