i got one off ebay aswell, genuine subaru part just half the price

got some spark plugs aswell, NGK 6 things, again half price.

buy your own oil and a performance air filter that barely needs cleaning let alone changing and bingo. knock over £100 off the bill come service time

Anyone used a main dealer for parts?
I bought an oil filter from them for £4.60 which didnt seem bad.

some parts can be quite reasonable, however £8 +vat per sparkplug is a bit dear, so is a fuel filter at £34 +vat. and my dealer charges me the same for magnacrap oil as what i can buy castrol RS for.

best bet is to ask them for prices then trawl the internet for a fairer price
