Just got my 04 STi TypeUK and...
...it didnt come with any manuals. Any advise on where I can locate a copy of the docs you get with an 04 plate STi TypeUK will be very much appreciated...as I need to read up on some of my new toys!
By the way...Hi to everyone out there...hopefully this is the first of many years worth of posts on this fine forum!

Hello & welcome.
I take it you bought it private??
How come the prev owner has not got any manuals??? Did you not read through all the paper work before you bought it?? Has it got the service book with all the stamps in it?
How many owners etc...
When I sold mine.... I had everything -even the original sti brochure!!

Welcome and a fine car you've got there!
Like others of said, you should have the manuals and service book.
I'm sure you can find all the details with the online manual found here:

Hi all, many thanks for the replies. And thanks GazTheHat for the link...doesnt work from here...but that might be the damn firewalls I am sitting behind ;-) Will try from home laters.
To answer a few questions it was a company car and sold to me through the car supplier (who normally deals in Lambos and Astons!), they have managed to loose ALL of the documentation but after contacting the local Scooby dealer I managed to get a copy of all services it has ever had as it has always been maintained by the same main dealer.
The only mod so far is to replace the worn out Bridgestones with Goodyear Eagle F1's this morning....more to follow???

Hi 66sean, the Bridgestones were almost down to the cloth on the fronts and bang on the legal limit on the back. And the new tyres obviously have full tread on them so might not be a fair test really...but if I had to choose I would say the F1's are not as noisy for me so far.
The next "non-mod" I need is a cambelt service. Any good places arround Northampton I should know about? To main dealer or not main dealer that is the question...

Taking mine in for it's 40k service soon. Much cheaper than most other Subaru dealers and they do a discount on parts for SIDC members
