  1. Can only suggest pleading ignorance & trying another dealership Chris
  2. Must thank Grieves for the hassle free repair of the struts checked the car out last Thursday & replaced all four struts on Monday, so watch this space & we'll see how perform.
  3. 53 plate STi & 2007 GB270
  4. Chris I've always had them replaced in pairs, when the nearside rear went on my STI Greives replaced both rear shocks no questions asked, on the 270 the rear struts were replaced as a pair, & now the front nearside has gone, Charlie in servicing had me drop the car in for a quick check on Thurs lunchtime, confirmed the front nearside is duff & it's booked in on Monday to have both front struts replaced. There have been several upgrades but they obviously aint working, I do know someone that has had four sets replaced under warranty & require a fifth but Subaru UK won't entertain him now the warranty has expired, thats even with the garage asking Subaru if they can carry out the work as a goodwill guesture. A nice set of Teins are the way to go but if the cars under warranty just keep returning it to the garage. Must admit I've always had a first class service from all departments at Greives
  5. I can just see mags face if I mention spending any more cash on the scoob I'll quit while i'm ahead for now........
  6. Front ones this time, back to Grieves & the verdict is fcuked again, got to say Charlie & the staff at Grieves are first class just wish Subaru would bite the bullet & fit decent shock absorbers, once your out of warranty Subaru don't want to know even though the garage are obliging.
  7. Black brembos, nice with your white wheels £950
  8. Fraser I'll give you the paint next time your over mate, only used half the can of aluminium & a spash of the red, longest job was making a new sti template
