Your not going to over charge the battery as it thinks it's a 90Ah. (320d 09) Swopped my battery out had a 95Ah in put same back in and just reg'd it in ISTA, got wrong cable to change/code Ah. Remove - 1st then +. Reverse to fit.

The rear upper sway bar suspension bushes often need to be replaced, either with stock items, or with anodised aluminium ones.

Sounds like belt static or jamming

A sparky battery is not a good thing..get your local mobile auto sparky to check it for you..

Good luck with all of your projects…crack on.

I love how the Brits work in cold, damp sheds and barns that have dirt floors..

I had a Subaru 2.0 litre and used it for my business, it was a subaru Legacy 2,0 estate and it had dine 80,000 miles when i bought it i used it as a service vehicle, and when i sold it it had done 220,000 miles plus and was still running well, the only problem i had with it was a worn rear offside wheel bearing, other than that with regular sevicing it passed many MOT's, and served me well. it certainly earned its money, It was used as a refrigeration and air conditioning vehicle carrying all the welding and braizing equipment, plus all the different refrig gas bottlles, plus tools, it was the most reliable vehicle i had.

Great content Isaac, good to be able to work under cover 👍. Bob M. South Wales

Always best to put the live lead on first i have seen people put the live on first and caused a spike to the ecu midern car electrics are very fragile maybe invest in a bigger jack sealey do some good ones and not mega money

I was very shocked when I had to buy a battery for my trackter this last month. I nursed the original one the last two years it actually lasted 9 years. The new one also an AGM type cost me $206.00 usd with a new positive cable that was 15 inches. I priced a new battery about 3 years ago when I first had issues with the battery and it was about$120.00 usd.

Good luck getting all the work done, be good to see more videos 👍👍

Good to replace springs in pairs and have a look at the rear, as this car has sat at an angle for some time. Be careful under there!

As for battery replacement, do you not have to tell the car its been replaced. Usually a sequence to reset the charging rates. Good content .keep it up.

Well explained of what went wrong Issac. Hope it's back on the road soon. As for the electrics, don't be scared. If it's a negative ground vehicle as it looks like it is. Put the positive lead on first and then the negative, there will less or no sparks. If it's positive earth like some of the old english cars were, then do the opersite. I belive that most are negative earth nowdays.

It's only 12 volt mate.

Boost leaky, nice English. Good to see the motor start, reliable BMW diesel

so you live on a farm with lots of machinery. seriously your no farmer the thing I've seen and the stories I've heard 😂 and it's not just changing fuses.

Great video Issac. Respect for doing your own work, I also like to roll around under my car fixing stuff. personally I stack heavy duty wooden blocks up, right behind the jack point, then lower the car onto the blocks, but also leave the jack in place still supporting some, but not all of the weight, it needs to be solid hard wood though. Ive never bothered with jack stands. You can never be too careful though, Ive ended up in a jam twice having cars fall off of those boot jacks. all it takes is a slight slope. It would be good to see some snippets of the gear box job if you end up doing that.

lotsa rusty looking terminals in that thar boot!! gerrum cleaned up and Dielectric Silicone greased...

Don’t say you’re going to”get rid of it”, say you’re going to “move it on” ! Yes a boost leak will mess things up and kick out loads of smoke….

Always replace mechanical parts in pairs young ane. You'll find it's opposite will fail not long after replacing the new part on one side.

You need to plug in and tell the car it has a different battery, although as I typed it you said it. also say Hi to Stuart at AR for me I used to do his MOTs at Steve's

You deserved a victory!

Poor engineering where the cam lobes are pressed on and can spin. And a wet belt on oil... Was supposed to save weight issues. They could of used weight saving on other areas like suspension components and engine gearbox mounts and aluminum subframes or plastic front panels. Left the dry belt or timing chains alone. Dealer is 2500 to 3k to change parts and labour. Absolute mess. I praise the various Japanese car brands for not signing up for this method I think

Sounds like a diesel.

You've been unlucky. Got no front plate on my Porsche, third year in a row, never heard anything. No plate at all on one of my bikes, same. And that's in London 😅 Love these comments here, you old troll-baiter, Lee. Just as well ask all those commenting here "Wha' colour is YOUR Lambo ??" 😂❤

should have bought a Celica GT4

There are so many dumb 😮engineers with no foresight to future issues. Thanks for sharing this Isaac. Bob M. South Wales

(John in the background.) If I had a hammer I'd hammer in the morning I'd hammer in the evening All over this land I'd hammer out danger I'd hammer out a warning I'd hammer out love between My brothers and my sisters All over this land, uh [Peter, Paul and Mary]

Hope you get the time, and energy, to fix it soon Isaac 👍. Bob M. South Wales

“Not a serviceable item”

By the time you've finished fettling that car, Subaru should give you a warranty on it. Keep going buddy. You'll get there.👍

I have been saying it since Covid, all the engineers retired and the new generation has never touched a socket set let alone worked on an engine.. New car slogans should be: Developed by those who have never driven, for those who shouldn't be driving.. 😂

It’s a cheapo crap engine. Such a bad design. Bits of belt clog up the oil ways and feed. If rebuilding I would put a chain or gear wheel conversion. Rubber/plastic in oil is not good. Very few well built budget engines around anymore, everything built for shareholders returns. You’ve got a skip outside, best put it in it and fit a good unit. Certainly no guarantee if it is rebuilt.

The Toyota 1.8 celica engine was non rebuildable. Way before ford thought of it.

It is easier to pull the transmission out, that’s how it’s done in Subaru dealerships. You’ve got a hoist at work. Get a new drive plate for it. Trans out, replace the drive plate, refit trans. Fit a decent engine to turbo exhaust. Job done.

So why isn't it? You could have that done in a day. C'mon Isaac.

Sounds like a ford transit 😂

It’s a wonder it didn’t break the head. I’ve seen it on sprinters

Wow just caught up on your legacy series. I love subarus, still own a 93 ver1 wrx, owned 6 other subarus over the last 10 years. Honestly mate there comes a time when you have to walk away from what you love, this is what I did. Engine failure after enginer failure and I realised that I could have bought a VERY nice car for the money I was spending on scoobies 😂 Stock/Modded/Forged.. they all go bang and it took me 10 years to be honest with myself 😭

wet belt press fit cam lobes non replaceable camshaft bearings WHAT INSANITY IS THIS??

Built in obsolescence, designed to last just outside the warranty! Dog-Shyte design philosophy...🤬

How is that possible? How could the cams be pressed?

Biggest fuckup Ford ever done! Wetbelt.......

But, the crank is out and the rods are compromised, so technically it’s all scrap. It’s a crate engine job.

Joke of an engine

The only option you have .... not buying a "Ford" .... I had a Ford Escord RS Turbo .... 2 new engines in 3 years .... No thank you!

That'll teach you for buying a Ford. Only it won't, cos you'll be a sucker and buy another one! 😂
