Warranties? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

seominjung · 04-09-2014, 12:26 AM

My BRZ is 7 month old and I have few issues.

- Chirp sounds from the engine
- sticky 2nd gear
- Bluetooth not working properly with my Galaxy S4

I guess I need to go to dealer and get some services soon.
I am wondering what are the warranties that I can cover from that list?
Do I need to pay for it?

Thanks!

All 3 of those 'issues' are common amongst every single 86 pretty much. If you look around you will see hundreds of posts about them. Good luck.

I heard a rumor that if you look at your owner's manual it'll tell you where to find a warranty.

The other way to get a warranty is with a WarraBallᵗᵐ. Sometimes, the warranty might escape. You might need a UltraWarraBallᵗᵐ in those cases.

Easy boys, might get the thread deleted for having fun.

the chirps are gonna be there unless you find an ethenol free fuel.

2nd gear you can try using a different transmission fluid. there are threads here with half scientific trial and error comparisons to guide you.

bluetooth might be an issue. My note 2 has connected perfectly every time.

One suggestion on the Bluetooth front is to dig down into the settings on the head unit and change it so that the phone connects to the HU instead of the other way around. I had a few intermittent connection issues between my BRZ and my Nexus 4, but it's been rock-solid since making that change.

Edit: Setup - Bluetooth - Registered Devices - (device name) - Detail - Connection Method: From Device is the setting.

I don't know exactly what Bluetooth problems you are experiencing, but this seems to have solved mine.

Don't you really mean for those who CANNOT read?
