Early problems - speaker rasp and long turnover - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

My drivers side front speaker pops out after pushing it down...slowly works it way back out...clutch is fine to me, but i drive easy 99% of the time..

I always wait about 5 seconds after turning the key to the on position...its an old habit from my diesel truck days..zero starting problems..maybe you guys should just slow down wait 5 seconds then start it....

Most people jump in fire it up and take off in less than 5 seconds, thats hard on a car so just take a few seconds, it has always worked for me.

Keep in touch with your dealer, as I'm sure they will soon have a technical bulletin about how to stop it from popping out.

I always wait for the pump to prime before cranking it over. It makes starting much easier IMO.

The fuel line will maintain good pressure for around an hour. Even overnight the fuel pressure will be around 30% of normal operating pressure.

Oh, it only takes less than a quarter of a second to get to operating pressure ...

Its a hard habit to break. Id rather waste the three seconds waiting for hit to stop priming then start right away.

I have my shift light set near red line. I turn the key to on, wait for the tach sweep to finish, then start.

suggestion: take it to the dealer.

No no duct tape works much better. The chrome duct tape would look amazing on it.

My door panels rattle, with any bass in a song at all, even at a reasonable level.
It's very annoying.

car's idle dips down to 400 or so, and makes a strange noise, from time to time.

Took it to the dealer, after this hapenning twice, they said they were going to put different clips on it. They drove it 50 miles, my dad picked it up and it seemed fine, (the first time he picked it up the grille popped out 5 mins going down the street.

He brought it right back and told them to replace the whole dash and just walked away lol... Then I talked with the tech again, my dad picked it up again and drove it for awhile to make sure it doesn't pop out again. (since I am out of town as usual)....

So they gave me a carwash, and full tank of gas. I'll let you know when I get home and rail on my car again in a few weeks to tell you if the mofo'n grille pops out again, if it does for the 3rd time, they said I will get a new dashboard... This new clip better work lol... cuz screw duct tape and superglue....

The GTS version here has push button start and the fuel pump primes before it starts, you have no choice.
That suggests that letting it prime for a couple of secs is a good thing.

Either take it back to dealer to get a new cover or use one drop of clear silicone.

Silicone will keep the cover in place and still allow for dis-assembly to upgrade the speakers.

Dealer has been visited, need more time to see if it pops back out though.
