    That said tyres, brakes, suspension are the most important parts of any car and should not be scrimped on

    Went for lots of 50 to 70 mile runs to great cycle the engine, as suggested ran at times a gear lower to get engine spinning but under 4k

    Very occasionally after 750 miles and engine warm occasional to 5000 rpm.

    Building to 7500 once over 1000 miles.

    One thing now it's run in you can feel how free it is to 4000 rpm , so can see the benefit of being more free with the revs earlier

    Lauren our cat was doing exactly what you say it shouldn't

    Came home, got out of the car, did not lock it, opened boot and alarm sounded after A minute or so

    Hit unlock on the remote and it happened again, in fact it happened 4 times. Very frustrating.

    In answer to the other question i have not tried any codes yet because I could not see any for this. At least from my reading of the descriptions

    Hi

    the following work with a full size spare wheel

    Hldr Assy Spare wheel (the bolt) Subaru 97052AJ000
    Supporter Holder (half moon "washer for the carrier bolt) Subaru 97047FG000
    then handwritten on both was IM013F

    Total cost £8.45

    If you then want a Doughnut rubber boot mat to cover and fit inside the spare wheel (the carpet version does not sit flat with a full size or 16" spare the AUSTRALIAN Toyota part is PZQ20-14020 - I got mine from Australian ebay for £115 delivered.
