Sunroof 2005 Forester

Is anyone able to recommend a company in SA that could look at my sunroof andpossibly fix it? It does not go back as it should under power. Or if anyone has had issues and knows how to fix?
Cheers

B & R are not Subby specialists, but they are good friendly mechanics. Great customer service. They explain everything to you and try and work out the cheapest but best option to get you going. With a recent problem I had they even offered to pick me up anywhee in the suburbs if the problem occured ...

When Steve retired and Rising Sun set, I looked around for a new place and I happened upon B & R Automotive in Salisbury, close to me. They do a great job, fixed price servicing and have loan cars while yours is being worked. And a great thing is they wash your car when they have completed work on it.

Time to start posting again

It has been a while since I last posted here. I started with an "L" series for those that might remember. I then got a nice 98 Liberty, but unfortunately that is no more. Early in March 2015 I was involved in car crash and it was written off. I was the meat in the middle of a metal sandwich. So I no...

I tried to have some larger tyres fitted to my 98 liberty and they rubbed, so it was back to the standard tyres for me. Time for a lift kit me thinks.

I went there for my regular service and see if they are as good as Steve was. The service was well done. They came up with a list of what else I need to get done. Not as friendly as Steve and the guys were, maybe that will change. I am also going to try out a company called B & R Automotive in Salis...

Tyres for Stock 98 Liberty

It is time to remove the balding rubber from my Liberty wagon. At the moment it is running 195/60 R15 tyres. I am thinking of putting on 205/65 R15 tyres which have a slightly bigger diameter does anyone think I will have any problems running these on my stock wagon?

Well it seems the tech manual has gone. What a waste of the time and effort of the people that contributed to this endevour. If only the admins had managed to protect it a bit better.

well it seems that the Tech Manual is going the way of the dinosaurs. A few times I have tried to fix it. Not having it password protected, and the software not being updated is were the problem is. I have decided not to try and fix it any more, pointless if the admins of the site don't want to prot...

Hopefully someone with admin privileges needs to fix the problem. There is nothing I ,as a humble member, can do to fix it. So it seems we will see this info just disappear.

Well it looks like we are going to lose the Subby Manual. I have tried repairing it but it still gets hacked. I have given up on doing that as I seem to be the only one that cared. So I suggest the Admins (if there are any) close it down.

It seems that no-one from admins is looking after the Tech Manual. I have restored a few pages, which is a long process at times. Surely an admin could password the site.
There are still admins around I assume?

Have tried to fix a few more pages on the wiki. It I think needs the admins to password protect this wiki. There is some good info here being trashed and therefore lost to the rest of the group. I might have a look at trying to copy the good stuff to my harddrive so that we have a clean copy.
