Hi

I sent a email to VOSA about the fuel leaking issue on the WRX under the inlet and I had a call a couple of minutes ago saying that they have a meeting with subaru and could i complete a form

Fingers crossed

Stuswrx

i had to fork out £300 to get mine fixed in February (work all done by main Subaru dealer) - will be interested what happens with this. If VOSA force Subaru to make it a recall, will people be able to retrospectively make a claim for the cost of the job?

Well I got a letter from Subaru on Monday asking for them to have my car to have a look at the fault on or after the 10th May but this would be a waste of time at the moment due to the weather conditions being above 0c as it only happens when the temp is frezzing has anyone else reported this issue? Or had a letter?

If you've done the work already then make sure you still have the receipt to show Subaru IM - you may be able to claim after VOSA decide what to do.

Hawkeye HGs - now that's another one that may be worth looking into

Stuswrx

OK so subaru have asked to have a look at my car should i let them? as I have a few mods such as de cat, remap etc... does anyone think that would be a prob?
