ChickenMob 6th Gear April 15, 2014 Share April 15, 2014 My place to WS is about 6 km or so, so i will take a chance to drive it there. The coolant residue after 1 day (didn't drive today) seems to be something i saw before on engine bay.. wonder if that actually happened before. will drop by WS anyway. thanks. just monitor it, once overheat the gaskets will crack. hope its just a loose cap should be ok in awhile. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AhWeePwn Neutral Newbie May 20, 2014 Share May 20, 2014 nice If 08 NA model, it should not have this.My knowledge not very good, but I usually see this with turbo charged cars. Maybe I'm wrong.If is 08 model, the setup should be similar to Peter's image, Legacy air intake towards the front. No wires.This should be the Impreza 07 NA engine bay layout:This is 08 Impreza NA engine bay layout: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

320x240 Neutral Newbie June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 Is there any way to enable chirping/horning when you lock/unlock the door on a 2010 Impreza? My dad went to install an after market central lock what chirps when you lock/unlock as he was having trouble finding where the car was parked without it.

The Intelligent mode is the supposedly the eco mode, right? Better to go watch in Youtube to see how a turbo wastegate works. What you heard is probably the wastegate controlled flap that opens and closes to regulate the exhaust gas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
