  1. Just changed to an 18m old 220d from a mapped Subaru Impreza WRX. What a time to change going from 4WD to rear wheel in these conditions. Takes some getting use to from chucking it into bends. At least with the impreza you come out of them ok..!! Got the 220d chipped from Diesel Tuner in Hull. Cannot say if there is any difference as I only drove it 2 mile before hand, the day I collected it... And I guess i cannot compare it to the decatted Scoob..! Anyway, first time of owning a diesel, good torque must admit. Anything else I need to look for. Had a Lexus service at 11K and one at 23k before I picked it up. Drives great, cannot complain..not that great in the ice. Only done 60mile though..!! The misses prefers it, not quite as noisy..no burrble or drown as it goes down the road. Oh and the neighbours prefer it at 0530 in the morning when I leave for work striking it up and reversing out the garage. Noticed some relucance in starting in the morning. Just removed the box and trying it without for a bit to see if the DT box is the problem. Have not had the car that long so it may be another issue that I will need to sort before warranty runs out (removing the DT box of course..)
  2. PS...Any good websites for tuning parts, sports grilles, ICE etc... you would recommend.

What is the next service, found that there are A and B types looks like every 10k and look about £160 for an A / £270 for a B.
