  • Cost control chain change 3.0R

    I recently bought an Outback 3.0R from private. At the test drive everything was ok. Already the next day the engine leaked. I changed everything, belts, tension roller bearings, pulley roller bearings, then to Subaru… Suspected of chain damage. I reported this to the previous owner… then I called the car house (where the car was always). They immediately knew, ah, the silver outback with wheel chain damage… I was shocked. Ever. A) car back, B) the complete chain drive is changed with everything and the costs are paid half by everyone, only the chain tensioner is for me not usually. Subaru meant that only chain tensioner exchange comes on approx. 1000€. Has someone had a H6 engine revised the control chain? I need a Ca. price indication…

  • Only 6218 new registrations in 2014?

    I saw today on TV and just read again on the net that in 2014 there were only just over 6000 new registrations of Subarus. Are there actually pure Subaru dealers or is Subaru usually offered at the same time with other brands? If I go out of 100 dealers throughout Germany, then on average this is just a little more than 1 sold car per week and dealer. First of all doesn’t sound like much. 1 sold Veyron per week would certainly be a good business basis ….. but only a Subaru?????

  • Subaru Impreza 2.0r Sport

    Hey guys, I’ve been a reader of this forum for a while and I’ve decided to sign up. I’d like to hear your opinion: I’m a student and can finally fulfill my dream of driving an impreza. I put long money on the site and didn’t miss a holiday job After a long search I found a car: Impreza 2.0r Sport EZ 07/2008 88,000 km 9,500 € Negotiating base 8 times matured (Alu) I looked at it yesterday. for his age well there. There are only a few problems: – Left back light is wet – timing belts soon due ?!? – service booklet is not cared for My father was today in a Subaru workshop and spoke to the master there. He meant it should be done the following things: – timing belts, rollers, water pump – candles – oil + oil filter – air filter – brake fluid – hydaulik oil The master has estimated about 1500€ for it. I could do some of it myself. My father has s I have read in another thread that the valves have to be checked at 100,000 km. The whole engine would have to be out. Is that so? I would like to have the car, but I’m not sure if the follow-up costs will kill me. What else do you think? Is there anything else that I should pay attention to? At the price of the car I can maybe do something else. There are docs that I can do. h proper problems and she depends on the money. She has financed the car and is behind and therefore wants to sell it. Greetings Adanos91

  • Noise to drive backwards

    Hi, I always have a sound when driving backwards, which sounds like the switchknapp jump back again. I insert the backward passage, drive a meter, then it makes short “klong” and that’s it. He drives quite normally backwards etc. No other noises. The noise comes only after about a meter as said. In standing it doesn’t happen! Does anyone know that?

  • Slice slammed from the inside! Cause unknown.

    Hello together, have waited longer with this question to find the cause itself, however in vain. And indeed my disc in the 5F Cupra MJ 2015 sporadically from the inside. There are proper drops forming which run from above. So it is at least not a little. Over night the vehicle is always in a well ventilated garage, there is at least nothing formed. What I have always noticed is that after a rainy day the next day, as long as the vehicle is in a well ventilated garage, nothing is formed. air conditioning is rare with me. Therefore, I close the accumulation of condensation water there. It never attacks zb when the vehicle is in the garage. Where could I look for the cause? I’m perplexed. Would be grateful for any idea.

  • Wheel tires combination

    Good evening, everyone, is there a vllt. someone who drives the tyres 185 / 35 / 17 on the Seat Ibiza 6L…?

  • Plug connection thermoswitch cooler

    Hello screwdriver, I would like to remove the temperature switch on the engine cooler before I have to expand the plug connection….there’s a trick about how to get the plug down…without damaging the plug? The switch is leaking at the screw connection to check if the seal is through first the new plug must be gone. Beautiful WE wish you greeting Frank [From motor talk from the topic ‘plug connection thermo switch cooler’.]

  • Cover or plastic cap for seat rail

    Hello, my friend has now several times managed to slip her mobile phone out of the tash and fell on the front edge of the seat rail -> Protective glass (happily only that) broken. In Ibiza this plastic cap is missing on the front track, which has e.g. the polo. Do you know if the cap from the polo (or any one at all) fits in Ibiza? Otherwise I have to defuse the edge with adhesive tape or something like this :/

  • Glove compartment lamp does not glow

    Servus, I have a little problem with my Seat Ibiza IV 6J from 2014. (7593/ADN) The little lamp in the glove compartment just doesn’t want to light up, but it does in the trunk or on the ceiling. I just went to the ATU to get two new lights, but they don’t work either. So the lamp itself won’t be. Whether the ignition or the engine is on, the thing doesn’t want to light up. Maybe the sensor that should recognize the opening of the compartment is def ect? Is the holder of the lamp bent? Defected fuse? If so, which would it be? Does anyone have a guess what it might be? I uploaded a few pictures, maybe I’m missing something obvious for you. Thanks in advance

  • Leon Cupra Purchase

    Moin people! My buddy wants to buy a Leon Cupra at the beginning of 2016. How exactly this one should be equipped is still the question. What is a must and what can you do without it? Don’t know me at Seat yet, but Black Line 19″ he probably wants to take the 6.5″ Navi, parking aid front and rear, grey metallic as color, 5-door, Seat Sound System (how good is that really, 150 watts or how much has that?). Audi and VW have a lot better music systems to order in the car. I is the price of 26.200 € appropriate for an EU new car? Is an EU new car generally recommended by Seat or rather advised not to?
