Can't remember who, but someone took their new shape in and it didn't have any bump steer and hence didn't need 'doing'.

Whether this is the same for every car of this model, I don't know.

Cheers

Spoke to them today. They have only had one MY01 in so far and that did need the bumpsteer adjustment. They have no reason to believe that the MY01 is in any less of a need for it than the older model.

I have consequently booked mine in. Appointment in two weeks. I have also booked in a rolling road session as I'm interested to see what the PPP is putting out.

Simon, do you mean that it was your car that had the bumpsteer mod?

If so, has it made any difference.

Cheers

Took my MY01 into Powerstation today and bumpsteer was not that evident (neglible). Looks like Subaru are doing a much better job with it these days.

However, Powerstation did a marvelous job on my alignment and have sharpened up the handling and improved stability no-end. Thanks Powerstation!!
