I know it's a common problem but not sure what's involved in changing it, is there nothing on Scabbynet?

You need one of these http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...750729&alt=web

It hides under the plastic cover in the rear wheel arch.

Not something I've heard of but I guess you can get universal filler hose in different diameters, you'd be relying on having some good metal to clamp onto and you'd need to fit all the vent pipes as well. There's a write up on how to change one on www.RS25.com, I just did a Google search on impreza filler replacement and it came up.

Thanks Red Baron I'm not sure rubber replacement is the way for me to go I think after all it's fuel and I will use the proper part even if it is harder to fit don't think I should go for a part other than genuine thanks for your help much appreciated
