We tend to moan about not receiving the 2.0 turbo Levorg, but it sounds like a blessing in disguise with the issues that you guys in Australia and New Zealand have suffered! I've only suffered issues with the audio unit, (it was still working) and I would have never known about the final problem...

To stand any chance of your stereo units satnav to work, you would need someone in Trinidad to have a satnav the same as what is in built to your stereo and to copy the information from it. Bearing in mind that these days, the information is no longer on a SD card, it's inbuilt, you'll have a...

Yes I have, several times. but yours seem to have corroded as well. The alloys are diamond cut which makes it pricier to fix. I refurbished 4 of mine for £408 in February 2019 (you've got some very tall kerbs in parts of London, my Levorg was actually beached on a kerb by the bodykit sideskirts...

Subaru UK has only shifted 991 cars so far since March 2020 to date. Some motoring magazines here are speculating that sooner or later, Subaru will be withdrawing from the UK market after Mitsubishi Motors. And being unable to supply or unwilling to import vehicles that can compete with other...

Okay, it's just my poor driving skills, and that semi lifeless electric power steering that's responsible for my badly kerbed alloy wheel then! ;)

Now you've got me curious as to how and why I've managed to kerb my nearside front alloy wheel (and badly at times) so often. I'm checking for that tomorrow after work, it's too cold now and the M.O.T's due in March 2021!

Thank you Kash. The thought of seeing my ex pride and joy ragged around my area would surely kill me. I'll wait and see what my prospects of reemployment holds. If it's the pits, I'll trade it well out of my city, and hopefully, like my other Impreza's, I'll never see it again. But apart from...

What a lovely itch to have, Kash ;) Make no mistake, the Levorg is a very nice car and unless you get the premium spec XV, the Levorg is not only a plusher car inside, it's performance is closer to the turbo'd Subaru of old. And so is it's fuel consumption! At least under my right foot...

I've recently heard noises similar to what you've described on my Levorg on lock, it's nearly four years old, Mine has only done 35,150 miles and I don't drive it hard being the 1.6 model. I read on another motoring forum of which I'm a member that this is a common thing (especially) regarding...

You're spot on, it doesn't save much fuel in my Levorg, around 500 odd millilitre the most I've ever recorded before I refilled the petrol tank. Mine doesn't kick in that often, most likely due to over 80% of my trips are less than 4 miles distance. On my wife's Renault Captur it's a absolute...

I believe that it's one of those functions that has been adopted internationally by major car markets on the grounds of health and safety. Like ABS, EBS, airbags and running lights. It might be illegal to disable it permanently. You do have however the ability though to disable it per journey...

I don't know about yours, but on the UK model on the centre console by the heated seats switches is a button with @ (but with A as the inner symbol) pressing that disables the stop start function. But why would you want to do that for? The purpose is to save you fuel in the long run and cut down...

We in the Northern Hemisphere can only imagine :confused: . The 296 BHP Levorg WRX is only available in Japan, Australia and I'm now presuming selected other Asian markets. I'm surprised that it's not available in the Philippines.

As for CVT, I am almost done with Stage 2 tuning (street tuned for now until we complete the catback exhaust) and can't wait to get into the dyno. My tuner knows a few WRX's getting their CVT toasted but those were tuned very aggressively by other tuners. I'm assuming CVT component of WRX is...

That's the first that I've ever heard of issues with the conrods on the Levorg 1.6 engine. I'd heard of those issues on the previous generation of 2.5 engines fitted in the Impreza WRX as well as crankshaft issues on the early diesel engines fitted to the Foresters and Impreza's. Then again, The...

I doubt if the 1.6 engine generates enough power to stress its internal components unless you modify it. From what I've read on this forum, the weak link seems to be the CVT gearbox if you channel too much power into it by increasing the BHP and torque.

Very unlikely, it's as Nicodache said. Although my dealer told me, because I got hold of a spare alloy wheel with a tyre for my Levorg that they programmed it to accept 5 TPMS monitors. Or so they told me, I haven't had to use the spare yet to find out otherwise.

The wiring is most likely there for the bulb, but if your Levorg is RHD, you'll need to purchase the LHD specific rear light cluster to get the bulb mounting and vice versa for a LHD Levorg. That's going to cost you and please note that you would lose either the rear foglight or reversing light...

I got back from my holiday in the South West counties last night, and on catching up with missed motoring news I've just come across this information regarding the new Subaru Levorg. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/cars/news/2021-subaru-levorg-estate-revealed-could-hint-at-next-wrx-styling/ar-BB18eLFN...
