Hello, a problem solved – a next shows up. At my Justy BJ 87 12 ccm, cooks in the overflow tank (where the water for the cooler is in) over the water after a short time. Fan runs however. No matter whether city or highway ride it is the same. Can someone please tell me what it might be about? Thank you in advance

Hello, I’m thinking about whether I buy a BRZ or GT86. As well as Toyota and Subaru are close to me. I’ve looked at both cars, the equipment list doesn’t make any difference, the price doesn’t really. The BRZ should be a bit harder on the rear axle. Has anyone ever thought about what one or the other vehicle is talking about here? Thank you in advance for the comments.

Hello, I have been driving a Subaru Legacy 2.0 Diesel Sport/Navi for 3 years now (EZ 02/2010). A really very successful car, lots of driving fun, great equipment and low fuel consumption. I have driven 50000 km in the past 3 years without any problems. What worries me, however, I have heard that there is always engine damage with these engines. But it is always, (as far as my information is sufficient) about Subaru Forester 2.0 Diesel. From Legacy I have only vo What have you experienced here??? Roland:

A happy “hello” in the round! 66,600 km and the clutch slips. Repair around 700 EUR, Subaru takes over 50%. Yes, if my car had been out of the five-year warranty and had run 266,600 km, then I would have felt the 50% as extremely generous, because after such a mileage the replacement of a clutch would have been fine and I would not have really expected a subsidy. But now seriously: 66,600 km and the clutch is gone? Hey, I’m driving t 1982 car and have brought some cars to 300,000 km, but I changed a clutch in time only on my first vehicle (VW Beetle 1200 L, 25 kw/34 hp) and that at 220,000 km. Since then I also drive with trailer operation, but clutch rush? Never again. So I claim that it can probably be rather less due to my driving style! So overall I am really satisfied with the Forester, but this clutch somehow made me think. h was dimensioned. I only hope that this new clutch is more resistant than the old one. Oh yes, in this context I probably also got a software update, because since then the Fori is somehow less splashy, needs 0.2 liters more diesel, but runs quieter overall from the engine. Be interviewing my friendly times about this at the next service. Have a nice day! TomCat64

Hello together, since May these years I drive my first Subaru and am totally enthusiastic about the vehicle above all about the interaction of the diesel engine with the CVT transmission. Now there is unfortunately the first problem, an obviously not quite functioning glow plug acc. error code (P066C). The yellow engine control lamp lights up and the error messages in the display say: a) The exhaust cleaning system must be checked b) The starting aid must be checked. According to the friendly one, all this is connected with the fact that modern diesel engines require the glow plugs not only during the start process, but also in certain driving conditions to reduce the soot. As far as OK, everything is on guarantee, however, there is only a date towards the end of next week. Now to my actual question the friendly one could not answer either: Will the DPF Regeneration is still carried out when so many functions connected with the motor control are switched off? Are consequential damage to fear? Many greetings frankx63

Hello together! I’ve been looking for a sporty car for a long time. After a long time I finally decided to use a Turbo WRX.(218ps ) The turbo kick and the tremendous grip in the curves simply overwhelmed me. Despite squeaking ripeness, my old wolfsburger probably wouldn’t follow. In 1-2 weeks I pick it up, I’m looking forward to it hugely.

Hello, I don’t know anything about Subaru at all but I would have been in a few questions or would like to be taught/confirmed. 1. all subarus have all-wheel drive 2. Is it true that certain subaru models were built with boxer motors? I mean with it exclusively serial models. 3. which were/are these? 4. did/had the subarus problems with rust? vll. until when was that so? are they now fully galvanized or what is done against rust? 5. did the impreza chain or still tooth strap? 6 . are the 2 liter motors of subaru good in Vmax / acceleration? 7. are the subarus high quality and durable like e.g. BMW, Benz etc.? 8. what are the weak points of the subarus especially regarding impreza? are many questions and I hope jmd. can answer a few dvon. Greeting TechM

Hello! I am new here in the forum and have a question regarding purchase decision. At the end of the year or January 2009 a new car purchase is due. The following three models have come into the short choice: 1. Subaru Forester with diesel engine 2. Honda CRV also with diesel engine (150 hp?) 3. VW Tiguan with 170 hp diesel engine What does the Forester speak objectively and objectively for from the perspective and experience of the Subaru motor talkers? Where is there a Subaru dealer in the Ruhr area with good Werstatt and good prices? Thank you very much

Hello together, I hereby gladly admit that I am after intensive research, 2 spoiled offers now since today SUBARU FORESTER SH 2011 2.5X (o.T) driver. Whether such a good decision was, I can not say yet, but after all the checks I took the risk and bought without a Haendler guarantee / warranty. Here the data: Manufacturer: Subaru Bez.: Forester Model: 2.5X Comfort TYPE: SH EZ: 02/2011 KM: 110.00 Holder: incl Autohaus 2 Equipment: Rigid AHK factory-side LPG system (under the tank cover) 8 times and still 7mm tyres Factory warranty until 01/2016 Silver cruise control radio/CD 6-fold level regulation – no idea!!!! TÜV: 01/2016 Price: 13.150 Euro I’m actually quite satisfied with this – if you consider 15,990 Euro I just hope that nothing overruns me. But let’s hope the best. The previous owner at least spoke well about the vehicle and sold this MAX only for investment reasons after about 5 years. Fre ue me, if I do not need any problem help from you – but I am also happy about help with questions. Ask yourself the question, where did you, if you also have the 2.5 with 171 HP, let this be assured? Would be grateful for help, because the comparative sports are not very meaningful and only promote the one, with which in the end remains the most overriding for the portal. Greeting from OBB.
