    Silver's Neomax "s" suspension

    I'm only a few months in, but they are a lot better than the standard. The stiffness is adjustable, I'm running them at 1/8 stiffness as the roads here are not great and there are a lot of those metal speed humps. Cornering feels better, and you don't have to worry about the back end bouncing.

    Android Headunit

    Bluetooth does allow for sms, most cars now let you send basic texts however I found the problem. Android Voice command software assumes it's installed on a phone, as such it sends the command to the "phone app", in the case of the android head unit, it doesn't use it, and often they use a...

    Android Headunit

    I've got the idoing head unit in now, just fine tuning things. Has anyone been able to use Google Assistant on an Android head unit to control the phone functions (calls/sms), with the phone just connected via bluetooth not Android auto?

    Silver's Neomax "s" suspension

    The car feels better now, while it is stiffer, it's not massive. There is a little more road noise, but it's not really noticable if you don't have the radio on. and your paying attention for it. You can certainly notice the difference between the max soft vx max hard setting. I would be fine to...

    Silver's Neomax "s" suspension

    So, got them fitting in now and the back end no longer feels like a jumping castle and I can take speed humps at more than 10km/h now :) Any one got any recommended final settings? They say to do pre-load 3-5mm, does it make much difference?

    Suspension question

    I see Neomax has 2 different options the "s"silver and "r"black. Where the people who found them too stiff using the street version or the race version?

    Levorg Service Manual

    Given how close Levorgs are to wrx's you might also find what you need from a wrx fsm http://www.wrxinfo.com/service_manuals/

    Keyless entry settings?

    So finally got my hands on a Levorg, but the keyless entry system only unlocks a single door. After seeing most other Subaru models have the ability to adjust this in car via menu systems and not finding any of those options on the Levorg, I hit up the manual and it says it can be changed by the...

    Can you swap head units from a newer model?

    Interesting find, but something isn't right, the pic doesn't actually match what's in any Subaru's I've seen, and the description also says the voice activations will not work, kind of odd if it is meant to come with a wiring kit, so not sure if there is a legit wiring issue between the year...

    Can you swap head units from a newer model?

    I wonder if the wrx head unit would fit too, might be easier to find them at a wreckers. Edit just found this doco, it's us based no mentions of levorg, but looks like they used the same head unit across multiple cars https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10130285-9999.pdf

    Did this make the turbo spooling audible? Also is this the part to block off?

    Paint on 2016 models?

    Started test driving a few Levorgs and the paint work has been fairly ordinary, lots of chips in odd place. If you open the rear hatch then look along the outer seam on the body they have had lots of little chips, near the roof. On the roof just above the door, had lots of chips. Is there a...

    Thanks Guvna, given that, I guess it makes sense that no would have tried it.
