  1. Yeah i'm just pooping myself for the worst. Hasn't used any oil at all since the service : ) so i'm just being paranoid
  2. Could always try a local vehicle sign writer if you decide not to tackle it yourself
  3. Cheers, I've googled it and it sounds like slap as opposed to knock. It's always gone away/been alot quieter after 5 mins. Did a 150 mile round trip yesterday and drove perfectly. Now the temp outside is starting to drop it's just taking longer to go away
  4. been looking at a stopper, i take it it will fit the forester ? that and a new pitch stopper to firm things up in the drivetrain pedal feel department
  5. What did he end up doing with it ? I wanted to know what exhaust was on it
  6. I like the speedlines. Gutted gold wouldn't go with the two tone paint job. Seen some more on the bay looked too good to be true and were. Decent pic and said set of wheels. so emailed seller only to get reply, it's only three of them. Who sells three ? Grr
  7. Is yours a uk car miggs ? Looked up what size i needed, results came back as 42mm festoon happy days i thought until i took bulb out. It's a tiny 24mm festoon in front and a small cap bulb in the rear so that p***ed on my bonfire
  8. Yeah i'd have gold ones again. Had a pair of split rim watanabe on my brg mx 5 looked nice but i think the silver would clash. 2nd pic from bottom is exactly what i'm looking at on ebay a the mo
  9. I do like yours mate but i don't think the gold would look right on mine, i have never really liked black wheels unless they are factory option at least then the designers have put some thought into the colour scheme ie c63 amg white/black combo. If the car was all one colour it would make things easier. There used to be a wheel shop website that you could select your car and you could 'place' the rims onto your car so you could see what they looked like, can't find the site now. Been looking some classic 5 spoke impreza wheels on the bay.
  10. Need some insperation. I'd like to change mine from standard but am undecided. Would love some nice multi spoke ones but the two tone body color limits my choices.
  11. Nice, love the front although i've never been keen on the rear wings either on the tommy kira skylines or subarus Almost seem like an after thought. Must be some areo properties or they wouldn't be on. There was a bugeye running round near me a while back with the same weird wing. Got any pics from dead on rear ?
  12. Four on the rear. size 185/75/16c 8ply came to 429.60 fitted
  13. haha, not intentionally i have to add, not many of us around so it was a shock to me to see it again ten quid says i never see it when i'm in mine,
  14. I may come down. Missus is nearing the baby dropping date so she doesn't want me anywhere too far just incase haha. Martin did my belt change and service in july was a nice friendly and knowledigable chap so i'd recomend a visit for anyone up here
  15. Anyone know the owner of a black sf forester on a p or r plate in leeds ? Looks nice, passed it a week or two back heading up the a64 towards seacroft and this week on the ring road at horsforth, both times i've been in my van so not given them a wave I want to know what exhaust he has lol
  16. Unless google have bought it within the last 12months no, but it wouldn't suprise me. I'm not sure what size limit is but t's a good platform. You can have the app on your phone too so can retrieve stuff on the move. I think it's dropbox.com
  17. Normally called anti rattle clips or shims. Depending on what it looks like. Sometimes can be springs. Maybe worth having a word with your local motor factors. Some places do a kit for just the shims and springs, did you buy oem pads ? Normally come complete with all the clips. Give subaru a ring and see at least if not you may b abl to get a part number
  18. Cheers mate, where abouts is it located ? I've never seen it does it illuminate on start up ? If so may be a bulb out or something
  19. Dropbox is fairly good.
  20. Sounds about right put about 45ltrs in last week and filled it and it wasn't empty so 50 + 10ltr reserve ? Still hasn't answered my original question though! Even took a torch out and shone it into the dash panel to see if i could see an icon haha. I guess it must have as there is no red portion ro the fuel gauge. Maybe i'll try sometime and stick a jerry van in the boot just in case
  21. No, had to go to ikea today and that's stressfull enough without the worry of fuel gauge roulette. 20L took it to back over half full so i suspect my gauge is a little out
  22. Haha, shell garage is just round the corner so i'll chuck some more of my hard earned into her tomorrow
  23. I'm seeing how much i can get out of the last portion of a tank before the light comes on. Trouble is i've been driving around all day with it on zero and the light hasn't come on. I know the gauge may read slightly out, i just don't want to look like a tit when i've run out as i've been waiting for a light that may not be there :)
  24. You're supposed to take it out of gear 1st mate ;-). Or living in part of the country with no hills isn't doing your physique any good !
  25. And again but looking from on top. Would appear to be attached to the rear of the block or the pipework for tge turbo ? Could be different for those with smaller coolers ?
