Default known problems on the Bug eye???

Having not owned my Bugeye wagon very long, i'm interested in finding out any known problems that pop up on them. I have searche dbut in honesty, i've not really known what to search for to get the results i want! Needless to say, i haven't managed to find much info.

Anyone know where i can get info on known problems. I have an '02 bug eye wagon, GX Sport.

Any help appreciated.

phantom cylinder misfire cel codes due to troublesome neutral position switch. I'm on my 3rd NPS!

Just noticed you have a sport - don't know if they suffer with same problem as the WRX.

I have one myself. I've heard of other Bugs having gearbox trouble, not mine.
AFAIK, they're pretty sound if they are well mainatained. I modded mine re supension and remapped it.
