Hi All,

I'm a new and very proud Impreza WRX owner . I live in Stroud in Gloucestershire and I was wondering if anyone could recommend any specialist mechanics in the area?

The nearest dealership is in Swindon, which is a bit of a trek for everyday support and servicing.

Any advice would be much appreciated. My car needs TLC!

Thank you! I really appreciate all help.

My impreza misfired today on cylinders 1 and 3. I'll try some new spark plugs first, but the car is new (to me) and I want to make sure it's not bodged!

Powerstation in Tewkesbury are good also there's Litchfield in Deerhurst.

AWDsu

yes tewkesbury , not evesham. Thanks M..300 i had a mental block ????
sparkplugs will often tell a tale, not easy to get em all out , but best as first thing, check routing and for cracks in leads and bottom of coilpack. was it running right when you first saw the car , and this has developed since ??? or is it an unknown history job.
remember the golden rule when fault finding , dont touch the fuel system when checking/adjusting the ignition side. otherwise you can end up with a combination fault of the two. GOOD-LUCK.

The car has been running soundly before and after the warning light came on. I've only had it 3 weeks and so far it has been great. It has a full service history, but it is coming up to 90'000 miles so maybe it is due some more sparkplugs?

It seems a bit over optimistic that the problem won't come back? The warning has been cleared and I've driven it for about an hour since,with no problems

I Love this site!! You guys are awesome. I went to MD Performance today, and they were great. They clearly love their cars and know their stuff. I will be going back.

Btw, apparently Powerstation have stopped doing Imprezas now.
