Got me and the (heavily pregnant) wife home tonight. :)

Check Engine Light came on * - still pulled like a freight train and sounded fine, but to be on the safe side, car was driven off-boost, and with the prospect of a 50 mile trip back to the middle of nowhere, Subaru Assistance came to the rescue!!!!:)

* The car was not being hammered (max. revs had been 5K) Just driving along. Stopped at some traffic lights, and "hey presto!" On it came. :(

Still, all under warrantee :)

Dan

BTW Car is a MY99 DBM 4dr Turbo

Dan,
Sounds like the exhaust 02 sensor near the back Cat ;)

Shame you didn't buy one of those SEC's monitor units Squizz's mate sells :D would have told you and could have reset it yourself :)

Only used Subaru Assistance once and found them to be EXCELLENT :cool:

Tony

Ps see you Wednesday mini meet.

ScoobyDoo555 13 April 2003 10:29 PM

I had the same a couple of months ago on my P1

Oxygen sensor on the exhaust ! Must be common :)

O2 sensor?

Survey sez "Eh Eh!" wrong! :D

Initial reports from Listers indicate a faulty knock sensor by the looks of it. Need to have it checked though.....

However, as I've already had #2 piston replaced, will leave the car with them until Wednesday - Subaru Assistance have sorted me out a courtesy car (new Astra SXi :( oh well, better than walking........just :D)

Watch this space,

Dan
