Not sure if the sport has the same service schedule as the turbo - but I would imagine it does.

There are two seperate 'big' services on an Impreza. One comes in 30k intervals, and one in 45k intervals IIRC.

The 30k is the big fluid change - diff's, gearbox, the lot.

The 45k is the cambelt change.

90K miles is when these two services overlap, and that's why it's so expensive.

Yup, it's the big one!!

Parts Content is as follows:

Engine Oil & Filter
Air Filter
Fuel Filter
Spark Plugs
Cam Belt
Gearbox Oil
Rear Diff Oil
Brake Fluid
Antifreeze

Offically, you are also supposed to remove the rear brake discs to check & re adjust/fit new handbrake shoes + carry out a geometry set up.

Cost wise, I recon A dealer is going to set you back the wrong side of £700 & could approach the Grand mark if they end up finding extra work (brakes, cambelt idlers/tensioner etc) and a specialist is going to see your pockets at least £500+ lighter.

If you don't have that sort of spare cash lying around on the lead up to Xmas, then as a bare minimum you should get the engine oil & the cam belt sorted, the other items can then be carried out a bit later as they are not as crittical.

it is worth changing the front crank seal.. else within 10k it usually goes..
also get the cam seals checked for leaks.. the crank seal is like £8 and abput 30minutes to change with the cambelt off.
