Hello

So, amongst other plans for the impreza (turbo 2000) It could do with a service.

What do I change/replace?

So far, I'm doing:

Full engine oil flush/change
Oil filter
Replace Panel Filter
Spark Plugs
Fuel Filter

Is there anything else you would do that I may have missed?

 

Gearbox oil?

 

box and diff oil done couple of months ago

 

brake fluid change and check the discs and pads

 

Already being done. Got decent fluid, braided hoses etc.

Im looking at engine/filter type things...

 

coolant change

 

Dont use engine flush!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just drain down and replace

what else you do depends on age and milage, cambelt, spark plugs, fluids, air filter etc etc all need doing at certain times/milage

 

Ah ha! Good call. Will do steering fluid as well whilst Im at it.

 

I've read up, and you are right. Shall skip the flush.
To be honest, Im doing as much as possible, just getting the car to a stage where its all done for at least a year..

 

as sadi, depends on whats been done and when, any service history with it?

 

Hi Jazzy,

Have you done cambelt + waterpump? I would recommend for you to change a new thermostat, those things have a nasty habit of getting jammed when old.

 

Yes, but im not looking to follow the service schedule, I am changing everything for peace of mind, and to ensure its been done. Service history is very easiliy "made up"

 

Hi mate

They were done in 2011. new MAF, new thermostat, cambelt and pump. Im going to change all of these this year, but not this time round. Focussing mainly on engine and fluids for now
Sadly, I cannot afford to do it all at once!

 

Power steering fluid? Starter motor and alternator service? We'll find some more work for you

 

Already mentioned steering fluid

Good options. Think starter and alternator shall be for later in the year

 

Oh I see
