Condensation
Does sound odd, i'd get some silica gell or a damp trap form asda and stick it in, have you had a look in the wheel well ? On wagons it usually creeps in and pools there

More problems :(
Ticking could be the injectors, they are quite noisy, as for the other issues I can't really help i'm afraid

diesel legacy
Hello & welcome,There's some well documented problems with the early diesel, dpf and glow plugs seem to cause issues, I suspect if your doing big mileages the dpf won't be a worry but I'd check if the plugs have been changed

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Needs 240v so can't be bothered getting an inverter etc, mine slaps so badly when cold, it's just to help the old girl out of bed in the morning, should be here today or tomorrow so I'll give it a bash when I have some free time, once we've moved into the new house I'll be looking at putting a garage up anyway

coilover question
Depends, I went down new shocks and springs as the reviews for the bc's were mixed, some people say the top mounts fail quickly and the ride is crashy, others don't have a problem, is its my daily I decided against the coils. Have a look at various brands,the tein ones are supposed to be good on our roads, http://www.tein.co.uk/product/index.html Also scooby parts do a brand that's isn't bc which are supposed to be better

Ecu resetting itself !!
Sorry mate been moving house, sounds like conflicting map /software, do you have twin maps ? In my experience the only time it tries to swap maps is when it looses power from the battery or immobiliser kicks in, Not familiar with the rom raider i'm afraid

I got some of them in too mate, deffo lacking in the bass dept not just your ears, if it's anything like mine, you've removed a mid/low range speaker in the bottom and replaced it with a 3way. Small sub is the way to go

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Never seen anything like that before. Slightly confused about how this would work day to day in terms of resticking it? Looks hard wired. I may be thinking all wrong though? Geoff It's gonna stick onto the underside of the sump and it needs a 3 pin plug wiring on, so the idea is to route it up and tuck it away so on a night I can reach up connect to mains go to bed the timer will come on and heat up at before I fire it up on a morning, All I need is a note on the dash to stop me driving off on a morning with it still plugged in

Tyres ???
Not strictly true, my good years have fairly good dry grip and phenomenal wet grip but I'm getting more mpg and less noise out of this set

New WRX STI remap
At the end of the day if you ask for a decent all round map you should see safe all gains, hp & torque can be extracted plus better mpg you'll not be over stressing anything if it's mapped by a good tuner, The early cars suffered form leaning off under high boost, was addressed in a recall I think

Rough idle
If it cuts out when you unplug the maf that's generally a good thing, it's when it runs unplugged there could be an issue
