Unfortunately the time for my first service is upon me... not a big'n though, phew !

Can you recommend a reliable, trustworthy subaru specialist in the South Manchester / Cheshire area for my pretty standard UK MY98 Turbo ? (preferably someone who will reset my ECU also).

Many Thanks
Ben.

 

Ben -

Try :-

Prosport,
Unit 18,
Heaton Mersey,
Stockport SK4 3ea

T: 0161 432 9999

They've worked on my own car over the last 3 years, ask to speak to Peter (the boss), and he'll sort you out OK. Let them know I sent you, Peter knows who I am.

 

Thanks mate.... Mersey's just down the road from me too.

I would say you sent me, if I knew who you were :-)

 

Just mention Paul @ Gecko Motorsport, my car's going in on Saturday for a replacement wheel bearing.

 

Yep can definitely recommend Prosport, Peter is a very heplful chap who knows what he is talking about

 

I've just spent most of this evening reading through various threads on this forum, and have finally found someone from the same area as myself. I am about to buy a MY99 from a local garage in STOCKPORT, so could I ask where you guys meet up, and is there a club in this area I could come along too?
Thanks,
chris.

 

I think there was meeting last month at the Cat and Fiddle, I couldn't make it though, not sure if there is anything arranged for this month

There was a meet, bit of a short one as no-one really knew each other. Everyone got a bit fed-up after their 3rd coke. Someone should organise another maybe, now that the evening are a little longer?

One the servicing side, would servicing at ProSport be OK for the warranty on my MY01? Or do I HAVE to go to an official SUBARU dealer?

 

almost sure it has to be a Subaru Dealership so as not to invalidate your warranty, though I could be wrong, doesn't it say anything re. this in the Subaru owners manual etc ???

Rasher, i though that it just needed to be done to the manufacturers spec including parts etc (which Pete uses btw )
I also recommend the use of Prosport as Pete is very helpful and has a very professional setup (plus a rolling road )

if that's the case Tony, can't think of a better place than Prosport

IIRC

First year, anywhere using OEM or equivalent parts.
Second and Third offical dealership as it's an extended warranty underwritten by IM.

BUT I remember Pete Croney saying imminent EU regulations would make these restrictive clauses illegal.

 

Just checked the Service/Warranty booklet, and yes - Subaru dealerships only and it has to be within 1 month/1000 miles (either way!) of stated schedule.
