Great video mate, straight forward I’m more confident on doing this now I’ve got a 04 wrx RHD. I’ve been avoiding doing mine for a while now, As other UA-cam video I’ve watch made it look like it was going to be a pain. Cheers for the video hopefully to see more on this car
Appreciate the comment! The fix has held up nicely so far. Just take your time and you will be fine! On the 2.0L WRX the valve cover is a little different so be sure to confirm the bolt assembly order and torques.
Thanks! It honestly should have only taken 5-6 hours but I kept running into things pulling it out and getting it back in. In all it took me probably 20 hours of frustration over the 9 months spent to get it done :)
