back in the land of scoobyshire, just picked up my sti5 wagon ;)
what a car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,
only one problem
there is a strange whinning noise when I put my foot down at about 80 in 5th
cant really tell any other time, havent driven it hard yet, it didnt make the noise when I test drove it (hope its nothing to worry about too much)
it could be the turbo, if it is then I think its louder than it should be,
might have to get it looked at,
any idea's
Taffyboyo
ps the car has a full decat and a superchip fitted
only one problem
