Unhappy SVX Woes

Hi all.

As you may remember My SVX caught fire due to the rear diff seizing and causing the rubber bushes to catch fire. The insurance company would repair the bodywork but not cover the diff!! It was under warranty but as the diff seized due to the gasket (!) failing and oil leaking out, the warranty people said no (after a new diff was bought)!! I have tried suing them but there is an oil leak disclaimer in the small print.

Oh, thanks to all who offered me their diffs, I am sorry I never replied. I thought the warranty would cover it and so bought a new one.

Anyhow, Subaru sent my garage some bushes so that the job could be completed. They sent the wrong ones and now I have been told Subaru have none in the UK!!!!! Are Subaru that high in the JD Power survey!!??????

This car has been off the road now for 3 months!!

Cost so far - £2400... ouch.

Please does anyone know where I can get some rear bushes for the rear diff/ axle?

By the way, never buy a car that has a warranty by WARRANTY MANAGEMENT SERVICES - WMS - as in my opinion they do not cover anything especially if something goes wrong because of an oil leak!!! £400 wasted.

Looks like I will be carless for another 3 months!!

Yours sadly

Ian

Ps. I have only enjoyed the car for 2 weeks before the diff went.
