Hey all! Just got my 2013 BRZ done just below 60k miles. Got the spark plugs changed while they did it. I got it back today and for some reason my car seems to randomly rev about 5000 RPM when shifting anywhere between 3rd and 6th gear and I reach about 2500 RPM. Did anyone gain this problem after they had the work done? E-mailed the service manager and am waiting for a response. Couldn't just turn around because they closed immediately after I left. Thanks ahead of time.

Hey,
Having the same problems here after the recall. Drove only 800 miles ( cranckshaft , bearings,...) Received detail from the garage and notice that the've used the spring-valve eg kit SU00308060. The instructions from Toyota says to use the spring-valve eg kit SU00308062. Does anyone have any idea if there is a difference betweem them? They've also used the 1207B seal packing instead off the 1217H sealant. I have added the details of the work down below and some of the pics i have taken. Maybe someone can tell me if the garage made a mistake because they wont repair the engine under waranty. And i am pretty sure they made a mistake. They havent even change the motor oil says on detail.. Last edited by ducati; 08-15-2019 at 05:18 AM. |

I have asked them what tests they have done to check if the engine did not receive any damage from the overheating, and they didn't answer me. Secondly, they refuse to send me pictures and still have not allowed me access to my car to check the engine myself, because it was moved from the dealer to the manufacturing facility in Thailand. I am fighting for as much as i possibly can, not worried so much about the post recall damage but more worried about what engine damage could have happened due to the serious overheating. I told them the 10k 1 year warranty simply wasn't sufficient for the extra damage and stress caused on the engine. The only reason i think they are being so nice is cause they realize that this car is almost $100k here, so they probably want to avoid any kind of claims for damage. A new engine i would assume to cost in the $20k range here. Fingers crossed! EDIT: I really want the pictures so i can possibly get some expert advice if there can be any visual assumptions of damage from either a Subaru dealer or my friends who own the 86 Garage in Thailand.

Kind of looks like they contaminated the engine while removing the old packing. Toyota is also very specific about the use of TB1217H. Any pictures of the oil pickup? I bet it’s full of packing. |

Well i think they cleaned out the filters, they sent us the pics but looks like they are cleaned before. And i have no picture of the oil itself but i can ask them monday to check it... i have my doubts that they still have the oil..

Sorry to beat what may be a dead hrose here, but I've been reading about removing the oil pan and it sounds like a major PITA, will a dealer actually just drop it if you ask them to? They won't just drop it on they're own, without me asking, right?
Edit: cars in the shop, I'm about to call and ask if they have any new info, they've had it since yesterday morning, no clue if they've started on it yet or not but when i passed by late yesterday it wasn't in the spot the tow dropped it off at.

Actuuaalllyyyy because of how the process went with my car specifically(they had it towed from 100 miles away), I haven't signed anything. I thought the oil pan was a more complex process since it would have to be removed from sealant, then reattached. I'll be dropping by after work in the next hour for sure. It's entirely possible they haven't even touched the car yet. |

Sorry about the jambalaya of words. What I mean is that about a second after I have shifted into 3rd (or 4th, 5th, or 6th) and have released the clutch, the car revs about 500-700 RPM by itself then goes back to normal. (Apologies for putting 5k to 7k initially. Not sure where my head was at). Any insight? |
