Think my motor has piston slap - I have read all the threads on this subject.
Finally and definatively - do I get it fixed? I have a warranty but it is not a Subaru one. How much will it cost and can anyone recommend someone to do it if I decide to get it fixed? I have a MY97 UK Turbo 2000 with 54k miles. Is there anyone who has left it only to find BIG problems later on in their cars life? |
ld have thought the only thing u would have to pay for if u left itis exactly what your thinking about paying for now?
rebore and pistons? or is it just a new piston or 2? |
mine has had slap for the last 30k now, 50ish when first noticed,
my97tbo5dr, seems to go ok still. just a bit like a tractor for 10 mins, lol. |
perhaps youve got the new Impreza diesel:rolleyes:
there was talk of prototypes in 97... I know P-S isnt funny but theres so many conflicting views on the subject.. Andy... |
I was told that one slightly oversized piston would cure it.
A kit available from Subaru I believe as so many had this problem. |
Go to your dealer and get a good will guesture put into Subaru UK to get it paid for by Subaru UK, I've got a MY98 with 44k on her and just had mine done by Vales of Yeovil.
And no I don't have a Subaru warranty, you have to have FSSH thou. Cheers Dan |
Thanks people.
Reckon I have decided to check with Subaru first and if no joy leave it a bit longer. Its not too bad - yet |
