Hey, Well time to introduce i guess.
I just got first car and although i never though of a suby when i was looking cause when i think of subys in my price range i always thought "Brumby" {Cringes}, i'm Wrapped with what I've picked up.
My knowledge on cars is limited so please bare with my ignorance, all my older brothers had moved out 10+ years before I was old enough to understand or partake in working on cars, the most advanced this I have done was change the clutch on my dads XF Falcon lol
Here's Some info:
93 Liberty GX, FWD, AT, 2200cc
Metallic Gunmetal Grey (Love the colour and  everyone comments on it):victory:
240K on the clock
79% Brakes
New CV's
Smooth Transmission
ALL Oil's look clean and
Crappy double height Head Unit :mda: (swapping for Pioneer HU next week)
Interior Immaculate
oh, an Aircon that Freezes my balls off :beach:
Fuel Gauge says full when full but drops off too quick with usage ( I get 200kms odd when its on E) until the light comes on and i filled up 80Kms after and she took 50L out of 60L tank) so getting about 580 for a tank 50/50 city/highway.
Overall its in A1 condition, bit high in the Km's but i heard these motors are good for 400 if looked after which this Lib sure has been.
Now for my few Problems:
Problem 1:
I found 2 minor oil leaks, one at right hand rocker cover gasket(supposedly common due to the layout of the engine) and the more major of the 2, on back end of the Sump (Trying to work out how to get to the back bolts as half of them were barely finger tight, I have to remove some plates to get access the the last 2 but tightening the others has helped allot and its only on drives of an hour or so that I can smell it burning when I arrive.
Problem 2:
What is with the friggen Power, Econ and Manual lights
I get the idea of how the manual switch works, but i am unsure about the power light and econ light. here's the run down of what happened.
I got the car and the manual switch was on, i drove a day or so before i read the manual and realised what it did so i turned it off (i just stick it in D so it didn't make any difference) but upon turning it off while i was idle the econ light came on yay!
it was working fine until a few days ago i filled up for the first time and then the light was off, i checked the switch's(both manual and econ) and still nothing.
It's been 3 days now and nothing i do will make it come back on? the only thing i know is that it was on while the fuel light was on and i haven't done enough KM's to get to that point again yet, What's the go? any ideas?
I did the cable thing to check for errors with the engine light and i just got constant flashing which means all ok.
To accompany the above, what does the power light mean? i have read nothing about it in the manual and i don't have any other switches im guessing from what i have read here that it only applies to 4WD models? although it does light up when i put ignition on (bulb check) so why would it bulb check something that is not equipped?
Finally, Im in SE Melbourne, i need/want to get a few things from a wrecker: Antenna (mine only goes up down half way cause some prick bent it), some clean hubcaps(till i can afford alloys), black casing of right hand side mirror (like the part that runs around the mirror itself not the painted part), some caps for the rear parcel shelf cause they are missing where someone has put in booster seats.. some small random things like that (and maybe score a filler for the gap   that will be present after i install the new head unit ( don't feel like paying $40 for a new one from Subaru)
Does anyone know where any good wreckers with subys are? i go to geelong often so down there is ok aswell.
That's my intro albeit a long winded, biography Look forward to being a part of the Liberty scene :new_russi
