Problems with my 98 forester


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone

I've just got this problem recently.... My speedo stopped working and my odometer is on, but it is only reading the last recorded k's on it. The engine light is on also, i have a modifed exhaust system on the car which the exhaust is just popping.( the exhaust is fine)...... The car just had a complete major service done to it, the mechanic has no idea... Can anyone help PLEASE

sounds like its the vehical speed sensor for the spedo. has your mechanic pulled the codes, i mean, that shold give him some sort of idea where to look. If he hasnt done that already time to find a new mechanic.

What do you mean by modified exhaust system

yes the mechanic has put it on the computer, it said the car was fine.......i'm taking it back to him today to checkit once again, to see if anything come's up...

 

What i mean by mofidied exhaust, i have 2 1/4in running from the cat back and a cannon exhaust. It sounds like if the car is doing a lot of small back fires.. pop pop pop pop only when i softly touch the eccellarater, but today it's starting to do it even when i take my foot of the accel....

I'm not sure if this is all connected, but it all started at the same time...

 

 

Thanks, any help would be much appreciated

Michael
