General health check, where?

[scatz]

Hi all,

I am wondering whether there is anyone or anywhere local to me that could perform a general health check on the Leggy. I'm sure a few things are amiss but I ain't great in the mechanical department.

For instance, I'm never really sure of what's gonna happen with the secondary turbo and get some funny clicky, whirring noises from either the turbo or the instrument cluster intermitantly Primary turbo seems to kick in when it's supposed to Not having any boost gauges [yet] I can't tell what's going on with them though!

Also, only recently, I've noticed a loudish clack noise when I reverse, just when gear engages it seems?

Anyways, I could take it to Joe Bloggs garage but as we all know, Joe doesn't normally appreciate the finer points of these motors

Thanks for reading guys n' gals

Stuart at East Sussex Mobile:

Stuart knows his legacys, Recently checked mine over with full service, can't fault them.

Stuart or John will be more than capable but I expect Stuart would be more interested because he likes his GT's

Go see Jaffa on here or Vince at RDS both in Hastings area.

Another vote for Stuart/John - they know their Leggys backwards.

Thanks Mr X, what did he charge for the pleasure fella? If you don't mind me asking

You have PM

Jaffa, RDS, Rivett Auto, East Sussex Mobile all come highly recommended from lots of members, details can be found in the relevant section on the forum.

Would say Stuart is the choice for a Legacy, he really does know them as Keith says, backwards.


Obviously you will get a good service from any of the others mentioned, Jaffa's your man for MOT

Thanks MrX

Well, just given ESMS a call and left my details, hopefully I'll arrange something soonish to iron out any floors and have some piece of mind!

Said you guys recommended them

Did everything go alright fella


Hopefully your good to go now

Stuarts coming to collect the car tomorrow AM. I've asked for the following work to be carried out;

• Cambelt
• Waterpump
• Tensioner
• coolant (obviously)
• Oil and filter
• Gearbox oil renewal
• Front ARB clamps
• Rocker cover gaskets (both sides)
• Spark plugs
• Replacement of rear diff mounts

John's quoted me circa £900 for all of that including parts, labour and VAT....that sound about right?

Rear diff mounts ain't getting done tomorrow and I may well hold off on 'em for a while as they aren't a major concern
