Question

Hi,
Hope somebody out there can help.

My STi MY94 has a strange smell (could be oily) after a longish run, very noticable when I reverse into a parking space. I seem to remember seeing something on a web site (not the SIDC one) about the wrong type of grease somewhere in the front suspension/wheels area but cannot find the site again.

Cheers

Also check the rubber washers that are under the rocker cover bolts , they often go hard and start to leak .
