advice needed
i know this is a strange request but really need the scooby nation to help me fight a di=k.
i have a wrx 02 and only had it 3 weeks, then engine light came on aso i toook it to my mate who ownes a garage. he looked at the fault codes and it came back as cycliner 2 +3 missing. also found the car to have a cold start knocking. he said it is the bottem end on the way out. he checked the dip stick and small bits of metal where found.
i rang the garage where i got the car from and he said that all cars have problems. i explained that the bottem end was shot and in not so many words wanted my money back.
he siad for me to take it up to him and he will look at it.
i think he is trin to let it drag onto the 4 weeks so its my fault.
any help or advice would be welcome.
the trip to his garage from where i got it from is about 200 miles away>
not a happy chappy
