Using/leaving the stop/start enabled does virtually nothing for fuel consumption and despite Subaru's technical claims, this will do nothing but put excessive wear on the starter motor (proven factually not just for Subaru) and the fact that a higher capacity battery is required says everything...

Do not bother with this. I purchased it to try and get guidance to change the bonnet catch. This is nothing like an old Haynes manual and has very little information of any use. The digital manuals use generic photographs and information that has no relation to the car it's aimed at. Haynes...

That's your engine coolant temp gauge; sitting at a normal level, at least here in the UK with a likely similar climate/temperature, i.e. not the Arctic or a desert! The engine oil temp can be dialled up in the top display in the centre of the dashboard, in the clock. fuel consumption, boost etc...

AliExpress have tailgate struts from GBP40. They fit and work but no idea how long they will last..!

Recently replaced mine with AliExpress £40 items, definitely stiffer and don't sag when open; will see how long they last!!!

This is a dealer only adjustment, try another dealer as the handbook clearly states this can be changed.

Not sure about the head unit but there is a way with the handbrake on that the car will start without the DRL's coming on until the car is put into drive; sure the handbook advises how this works.

Hi. Daft as it may sound, I was told by a long standing Subaru (40+ years) dealer who I trust to put the car on full lock and drive in tight circles, 20ish times on right hand down then left hand down for the same number of 'circles' This is viciously mind numbing but definitely eased the...

I had a UK spec Gen 2. 2.5 Quad Cam Lux pack in Aqua mica, chunky looking tool that went very well. Similar to this without the bonnet scoop and other upgrades. Should have kept it as I have never seen another. Had 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gens of Legacy, all being the highest non turbo UK specs...

Hi, Was digging thru my diagnostics connected to OBD and came across a function "self park" with the capability to toggle on/off in the diag tool; not brave enough to toggle it on but very curious... Any one know whether this actually may be a self parking system or another name for the auto...

Hi, I have spoken to the dealer but they have been rather unhelpful and I don't want to go down the 'Carly' route as they will not elaborate on what it can and can't do, you need to buy it and try which is spectacularly unhelpful and can't get my scanner to connect in anything other the most...

Hi, My Levorg has the DRLs and fog lights combined mounted lower in the front bumper. Is it possible to programme the LED front sidelights 'brighter' the way they are used on the WRX/STI as DRLs? What I want is to have the sidelights and tail lights on with the ignition but the sidelights to be...

Hi, The tray was from my 2007 Legacy saloon which had a deep spare well and space saver wheel/tyre with this tray on top. The well was pretty much the same size as the wheel so for the Levorg this would leave space at the front of the wheel area. I let the car go with a full size 17" wheel in...

Hi folks, Just picked up my UK spec 2017 1.6 GT in Steel Blue Grey. Long time Subaru owner and worked in sales in a dealer for 7 years. I had faith in the product I was selling, 5 Legacy's, 1 Impreza and now a Levorg, all with my own money! Getting used to a modern car may take a wee while...

Hi, I kept the shallow foam storage tray from my 2007 Legacy saloon. It sat on top of the space saver and is about 3 inches deep with storage hollowed out. The boot floor sat on that and all was kept level. I'll see if there is a part number and try and upload a pic. Cheers KD
