Diff issues on my XT Foz

17 May 2018 - 07:24 PM

Gday guys..
I really didnt expect to be posting as much as I have ,but unfortunately my 04 Foz XT has proven to be a little troublesome ..
I dont think she was very well looked after by the previous owner,and now I am trying to tick them for the list because I love this car and just want a reliable daily..
My latest problem is a violent vibration from the rear diff area when making tight turns at low speeds..
If anyone has experienced this issue and can give me a heads up on what it might be,that would be much appreciated..
The rear and front diff oil have just been changed..
Cheers in advance guys

Turbo issues

10 May 2018 - 02:58 AM

Gday guys..
I have an issue with my 04 Foz XT..
It has a Aeroflow Electronic Boost controller fitted..
When the turbo comes on boost,the red light light on controller gauge flashes and makes a beeping sound..
As soon as that red light comes on..the turbo basically cuts out..
Turbo is a TD04L..
Boost come on around 2500rpm and cuts instantly..
Does this sound like a controller issue or something to do with the turbo itself?
Appreciate your time guys

Fog light globe removal

Gday guy..
Can anyone tell me how to change the drivers side fog light globe on the 2004 Foz XT ?
There doesnt seem to be any room to get the globe out at all..
Appreciate the help 😀

Vibration through steering wheel

01 April 2018 - 11:25 PM

Gday guys..
So I have stepped up from my Gen3 Liberty Wagon 2.5 n/a..
To a 05 Forester XT Luxury..
Feels like a huge step up in so many ways 👍🏻
But..I do have a strange problem I have never experienced in any of the 40 cars I have owned over the years..
I will describe it the best I can,and hope that someone has experienced it and provide me with the likely cause..
When I hit a bump on the road,but not all bumps..
There is a knocking type sound through the steering wheel
I wouldnt call it a vibration..more like the steering wheel isnt fitted properly..
You can feel it through the hands and there is a metal on metal type sound..
There is no noise from front of car or any suspension type noises..
It is really annoying but I am hoping it is something not difficult or expensive to fix..
Appreciate your time guys

It is a 2.5 EJ25 mated to a 4 speed Auto Box ..

As usual..appreciate your time guysAttached File  5C2992BB-747E-4799-A82D-A2AA0F8F17EB.MOV   9.82MB   9 downloads
