1985 Subaru Leone dl sedan review from Netherlands
"Reliabil and strong"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At the bigining the carburetor hat to be fixed couse the gas cable broke this happend in january of 2003.
In march I changed the tyres from 165-13 to 175-70-13 and I had a 20000 km service.
Also in march I changed the gearbox oil this one is 20w's thiner so it shifts better.
In june my right front brake was broken
a tiny stone sliped in the meganism.
In august my tailpipe was leaking it was a very sporty sound.
And in november my right rear schock absorber was leaking I replaced them for 2 brand new koni's (atleast 50% more comfort)
General comments?
I actual love 2 things my girl and my car couse I can't couse wich is beter.
And the offroad skils are for a two weel drive very impresive.
And I like the handeling of the car verry quick!!!
