  1. Yeah its from a right hand drive, we drive on the left here, and its the left side OEM assembly only. Sorry for any confusion.
  2. How can you have a pair of left hand side headlights? A pair is two. Ive left side assembly.
  3. Hi anyone looking to buy a headlamp assembly for 2009 legacy? Its LH side xenon lights
  4. Thanks so much for that, ill defo scratch the head once or twice
  5. Hi does this look or sound right? Its a legacy diesel my 12. Is tensioner bad or can it be adjusted/tightened. Many thanks Neil
  6. Yeah got heat and gurgling still gone, it went before heat did. I am thinking it was low coolent in system and expansion tank must have been empty. It then sucked air into the system. Once it warmed up it probably vented some air back out expansion tank. Then by me adding coolent it eventually worked all air out. Not sure how or why the flap closed cutting off hit air maybe just a coincidence. Thank you for all the advice. Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk
  7. Turns out it was some flap stuck in closed position which prevented warm air flowing. €100 fix. Hope that all it was. Now onto xenon lights randomly turning off. New bulbs maybe, but which ones. Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk
  8. Thanks for your replies guys. Had my car with my mechanic yesterday. He had good look around and began bleeding air from heater core pipes. Got a bit of heat on blowers after about 15min. It wasn't booked in so he couldn't spend anymore time on it. Taking it back in morn again and leaving with him for the day, when he will raise front end and bleed some more or get at heater core and see. He believes no loss of pressure in system, no mixed fluids, no visual leaks and good performance so might be an air lock has travelled to a high point in core. Fingers crossed it's just an air lock and fingers crossed it won't involve taking console apart. Will keep you updated. Neil Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk
  9. PS gurgling sound did stop before heat did. Thanks for reply my last coolant change was with new block install. Would It mean head skim and new gaskets you think? Would contamination not show in oil or coolant if was head gasket?, Sorry for all questions but I just can't afford big repairs atm. Could it be blocked heater core? Hope it not a head gasket I had that done on a Rover 214i before and wasn't cheap, car never felt same after either. Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk
  10. Hi guys, thanks for taking time to read this. Brief history on my 2009 Legacy 2.0 Diesel Irish non import RH drive 5SP Manual. At 245,000km my engine went due to cracked crankshaft. Got new short block and all went exceptionally well until recently, 295500km. I noticed gurgling sound from what seemed to be behind dash especially first thing in morn. Checked coolant and was below min when cold. Topped it up checked rad cap and oil cap and all fine, rad cap seals look fine and it springs. Oil cap is clear of anything other than oil so is dip stick no white gunge or water drops. Exhaust smoke a bit white on first start of day, literally a big of then clear but it always has been that way from day one. Heater gradually got less warm over about next 1000km and now only blows cold. Checked cabin filter and was clean- hoovered out fins anyway! Today I was on motorway at 140km continously for about a hour in total and at 100km for previous 45min all free moving constant momentum. Temp gauge stayed in normal range, not even fully horizontal. But when I took off hard from tool booth c4000 rpm the gauge crept up slightly over half way/exact horizontal position not even close to red zone. I slowed slightly and it returned to just under half way again (maybe this normal but only noticed it as I was paying attention to gauge for entire journey due to probs mentioned above) My question is can any help solve the no heat in cabin problem based on info above? A/C isn't cold either but that isn't an issue for me in Ireland but may be related. Could it be blocked core/matrix although both hoses into firewall are warm to touch after about ten min idle. Thanks again any help greatly appreciated. Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk
