Hi Tony and Hi to all our antipodean friends this Christmas. A very Happy Christmas to all.
It's 23.20 here on Christmas Eve, and we have a live relay from Sydney of a Christmas Mass celebration. You probably got a lot of Irish people and people of Irish extraction, and it is nice to be a part of a global village. Enjoy the happy season. Joe

Hi Guys,
I'm even later to this so I hope every one had a good time over the holidays.... We have just got our first svx and so I'm busy reading through all of this and very usful it is too. We are in the South of North Island, and would love to meet up with others who are a bit more local.... sorry to those of you up in Aukland but it is a bit too far to go just for a spin....lol The only things we have found wrong with the the car so far are the blanking cover from the right hand side of switchs is missing and the lights don't work on the vanity mirrors. Any ideas? Happy2007 to All Alex |

Welcome
Hello Alex.
That's TWO people with their first post in the one thread!! That does not happen too often! You are very welcome, and Happy New Year to you and family. Regards the blanking cover on the switches, could you be more specific, or post a pic? Would it be the blank cover visible in this pic of my car? http://www.subaru-svx.net/photos/fil...list/40470.JPG I'm meeting a couple of guys next week in England breaking cars. If you can identify it exactly, I might be able to purchase and post one to you. Should not be much money involved, it would be light. Unless a local member has a spare one? Regards the vanity mirror lights, it could be a number of things. If it is the bulbs, they are listed as 12V 2W, check if they are blown and get two new ones from a Subie dealer. It is not likely a fuse, there is no fuse listed for them. What can give trouble are the fine wires feeding the power to the sunvisor for the lights. They can break close to the pivot, and then you need to just fix the break. From memory I'm not sure, but there could be a light gray and a light orange wire feeding into the visor. If you unscrew the visor from the pivot, you will see the wires. If one is broken or stripped, you know what to do. Joe Quote:

For the blanking cover try the following who have wrecks on hand :- Waiuku Car Spares, 114 Kitchener Rd, Phone 09 235 7166. Subaru Recycled Parts, 116 Railside Ave. Henderson, Auckland, Phone 09 836 5549. There have been reports on this network regarding trouble with the wiring to the sun visors. Have a look see. N.B. Particularly important for you in hilly Wellington. Drive the car in third unless on the open road. Fourth is an overdrive and at city speeds the poor tranny hunts up and down 3/4/3/ constantly. Watch the tachometer for evidence of the high gearing involved. I am sure that this causes a lot to the problems many report. Notably I have had none. I have not had any trouble obtaining spare parts. Anything not in stock has been sourced from Japan within 10/14 days, and the above have used stuff on hand. That said I have required little more than wear and tear replacements, over a period of seven years. Cheers from north of the Bombays, Trevor.
