I have a malfunctioning knock sensor which results in various warning lights including disabling EyeSight. It's caused by water ingrese and cures itself after a day or two but comes back after going through standing water. I need to get the sensor repaired or repaced. I thought that this was a...

It's inside the fuel tank! Access is under the back seat.Won't bother to touch it while I don't need to.

According to Service Booklet, the fuel filter should be replaced after 80K miles or 8 years. Car is coming up for 8 years but mileage is only 54K miles. Filter replacement looks expensive both in terms of parts and labour. The car is running without any issues so is it worth leaving replacement...

So I made another trip to the Southern Alps this month. Setting the cruise control at 70 mph indicated and over a long stretch on the motorway got 44.4 mpg. So I guess that's my answer. I did try for a while with cc set at 55 mph. The best I could get was 48mpg. But who can drive at that speed...

My front bumper popped after a slight nudge. The bodywork firm say I need a replacement for bracket that fits onto the bottom of the front wing and the bumper clips onto the bracelet. I've found something described as a "front bumper retaining bracket". Photos of wing and bracket attached. Do...

I knew that Air Con worsened fuel consumption but I didn't know by how much. So I did a test. At 78 mph (true) over 250 miles on autoroute without Air Con I got 32.7 mpg. With Air Con I only managed 28.8 mpg - a 12% hit. Does that sound about right?

33.6 mpg over 1600 miles to southern Alps and back. Mostly motorway but with 200 on mountain roads and around 100 across 2 weeks on short (3 miles or so) runs . On motorway over 200 miles non stop with cruise control set at 78 mph on gps the best I could manage was 36.3 mpg . Big difference...

Don't change it David. RHS is the correct side for indicators. That's the side you stick your arm out to make your hand signals

He will need his software but I'd be surprised if you need a full map and therefore his "brain". Unlike a remap all he has to do his change some "vlues" to known numbers i.e. sufficiently larger than the existing ones. Of course, it could be that the Subaru system has completely changed since...

My Twin scroll was limited to 114 km/h as is normal with JDM cars. You were lucky to get 135.

Yes, I have a full sized spare in mine. It came as a nice surprise when I came across it when first exploring my new purchase.

I don't think you can do it from the dash menu. You'll need to get a canbus converter.

Hello David, Welcome aboard. I remember you well from the UK Legacy forum. I had the same problem with my Gen4 Twinscroll. On previous generations the Km to MPH converter would also delimit the the maximum speed limits. The Gen 4 required a Canbus converter but that did not delimit the...

Charlie at Prodrift, Kent has a white one for sale at the moment. He has a good reputation amongst Subaru Legacy folk .

Japanese radio and satnav no good outside Japan. So,if you wanted these features, you would have to replace the unit.

I believe it has Sti wheels. Just Google Prodrift uk Kent. Charlie used to import many Legacy turbos. He has a excellent reputation in the Legacy community.

UK Members and watchers of the Forum. Prodrift have a 2 litre turbo arriving from Japan in March . Price and mileage makes it look a reasonable deak

Yes, fitted to same rims and same individual rim. Tyre fitters assure me that they are well used to dealing with TPMS systems and did nothing that would damage the valves or sensors.

Since getting new tyres fitted the Tyre Pressure Light is permanently illuminated - never "blinks". Warning message is "Low Tyre Pressure" "Consult Owners Manual". All tyres are at the correct pressure and the TPMS mode settings still can be operated. Any suggestions? Manual says that main...

Arkatee, aren't your 50s on 17" rims?
