Hi. I've just bought a 2004 impreza 2. Non turbo blobeye, it's been have traction problems on cornering and going around round abouts, it spun out of control and I found myself facing in the opposite direction to my embarrassment! . Every corner I go around its like driving on sheet ice!
I have been getting a banging from the car when going over pot holes but not over speed bumps. I thought these car were supposed to be grippy? .
I'm at the stage where I'm coming to a corner and just creeping round it for fear of it flipping out!
I'm having the drop links replaced on Monday will this help?
Please help if you know what's going on with this car!
Thanks

 

Did you buy it off a guy called walter?

 

does sound like a sock puppet account as first read.

 

Pictures of the car,with today's paper and you wearing your wifes pants on your head! Or you're a liar.
I think the clue is in when you spun around,facing the opposite direction but did 360*

 

Lost me?

 

Has it had any work done at Scooby Clinic recently?..........Just asking.

 

Hi no, I did look at them but there too far away, it's a local garage I'm having the drop links done by tho! The seller was a company in Hull. I've not had it long, taken about 12 rides in it!

 

If it has check your alloys are not shaped like 50p's and your suspension wrecked they usualy do time trials up and down the drive, loser has to make the tea for the week.

 

Ha no. But thanks for the tip!

 

what make of tyres are on it? put budgets on an impreza and you usually end up in a hedge

 

listen to this man

 

I bought a rb5 and it had cheap tyres fitted just to sell it. Also the rear shocks were knackered and I ended up facing the wrong way on a roundabout too. lol. Id say tyres was the biggest factor but the rear shocks wouldnt have helped either.

 

Did you test drive it before buying?

 

Here you go,

Might be same car,maybe walter could not manage to put the letters together and come up with what tyres he had on it and sold it on as he went all quiet on us lol.

 

Rear brake calliper siezed or binding, rear shocks knackered

 

Nooooo not again

 

And now the deafening silence.
