Had no probs with my GB270, just serviced regulalry, put fuel in, and enjoyed.

Had the oil pump go in my GB270 Wagon - not unheard of apparently on the Impreza's. Replaced with the RCM modified one which overall is a fairly big job hours wise. Also had some paint peel/bubble on the external plastic trims which was redone under warranty.

Other than that no problems.

I believe most of the engine failures are the STI's - very few if any WRX's/WRX's with PPP from what I have read on here (unless modified etc.)
