B14RY W

These threads always give me a few nights sleeplessness. Ill be up at the window constantly on the lookout for a shady vectra occupied by low life scum

Cant go wrong with Stevie Walkers Bodyshop buddy. Was reading your other post about the wheels and would love to see your current rims in white, as they looking stunning. The spoiler should look real good Barry

Was thinking the very same thing. Your car is looking fantastic mate. Barrt

Wondered where the F.T.O had been. Yeah still about Eliburn mate, I work in the Community house in Aller Place. Im sure you parked next to mine last Saturday at the Co-Op in Eliburn. Ill keep an eye out for you.

This is mine. Has black 16inch winter wheels on at the moment.

That would be mine mate and it was Barry W (B14RY W) Had to sell that plate though as I was a bit short on cash, and now the car just has a BAZ plate.

Thats the very one mate. Should look sweeter in the coming months, when the 18's go back on, accompanied by my new carbon tailgate and carbon STI V6 spoiler. Give me a wave next time you pass. Barry

Im in Livi also. Silver Classic with obscene amounts of Carbon Fibre.

I generally wait to be waved to these days. I was sick of getting nothing but blank expressions or angry stares in return. Always wave back though. Sports, Classics, Wagons, New Age, Ill wave to all. I even waved at a pensioner in a Justy once. Just to check. Should be a notice in the first page of the owners manual about mandatory waves to other Subaru drivers.

Alex F Noble in Penicuik. Thats who I use. The guys are fairly helpful. Hope this helps.

Not sure mate. If you remove the speedo drive from the gear box and attach it to the drill, then spin the drill. If the speedo works then the cable/sensor/speedo all work fine and the problem is with the speedo drive gear in the box. You can also check this by having all 4 wheels up off the ground and put the car in gear, have a mate put something in the whole you removed the speedo drive from. Drive the car. If the gear spins whatever you have put in the whole the gear box end is fine. As I said before perhaps someone with more knowledge than myself could help you shed some light on the situation. Any joy with checking the fault codes? Cheers Barry

The pin in my speedo drive had snapped and had been repaired, and caused the speedo to work intermittently. and bring on the C.E.L light. The pin eventually broke so didnt spin, so didnt send the signal to the speedo. Only a suggestion. Perhaps some one who is more knowledgeable can shed some more light on it for you. Barry

I had the same problem with mine when I got it, after I had the clutch changed. Mine was the Speedo sender unit from the Gear Box. Sounds like a phone call to your Local Subaru dealer is needed mate. Think they are about £197 off the top of my head. If its any consolation mate its real easy to change once you have the part. Cheers Barry

Could have been alot worse. Bit of a pain though when a new part is faulty, really leaves you scratching your head. Especially when I specifically tested it before fitting.

Well what do you know, dodgy Thermostat. Worked fine the first time I tested it. Removed it Yesterday to test again and it was sticking, and closing prematurely. Tested it again a while later and it was fine again. Took the car a run without the thermostat and all was good. The offending part has now been binned and a new one is on its way to me. Needless to say I will be back to checking all parts three times before fitting again. Thanks for all the help and suggestions Barry
