Yeah, you will put more strain on the cvs and boots but I don't think its an issue. They are cheap and straightforward to replace (provided you can crack that damn 32mm nut).

strut lift is effectivley extending your struts, its cheap and quick to install. body lift leaves your drivetrain in the same position but lifts up the chassis. lots more bits required. lots of effort to install. I have a two inch strut lift on mine and have been super happy with it. The x bread 2" ...

Sounds like you have ruled out the ignition system.

I would be checking

Timing belt alignment
Water temp sensor
AFM

Can you check error codes in this model?

Mine is still going strong, probably used it on 8 trips since I got it in may last year, probably pulled it out about 15 times over those trips to inflate all tyres from 10-15 psi up.

WTB: Flexible clutch line

Pretty sure the fittings don't change much model to model but I am after the flexible clutch line for a 2000 foz. If any one has one I can grab this weekend that would eb great, if not I will grab a new one next week.

Sounds great, how much do you want? when could I pick up? I work 10am to 6pm at the moment so outside of those hours would be great. It is non abs, I think either would work though.

I bought a forester recently and asked exactly the same question. The 2L donk actually goes quite well in it. Not super fast but enough power to be comfortable overtaking. Mine is a manual, I would assume the autos are a little more sluggish. The advantage of the 2L is it comes with a lower low rang...

I read that post but it didn't seem to fit the problems I am having. I can post in the NSW / ACT forum fine. I am thinking maybe I need to set a location preference somewhere?

Edit- nevermind, i can post now, thanks whoever fixed it.
