Just hit over 10000 miles - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Chirping noise is normal. Other GDI cars have the same noise. It may not be desirable, but there's nothing wrong with it.

The tapping noise is an issue, but easily fixed now that the fix has been discovered.

Tail light condensation is due to cracked housings. They should be replaced under warranty.

I think Subaru/Toyota actually has determined that the first XXXX amount of cars that came off the line had this issue. I got both of mine replaced under warranty.

I hit this on the 4 month anniversary, just as I turned onto my block on the way home from work:

That was on Sunday. Im around 12,3xx now.

Wow mine's been almost a month and I barely have 477 milesXD. You guys are like 2 years ahead of me.

Damn, what's the gas price over there??
2,44$ for 1litre (about 0.26 US Gallons) of 98Octane here in Sweden atm :o

I paid $3.86/gall for 93 octane two days ago, but its going up. I've spent $1,603.18 on gas thus far. Thats $0.13 a mile.

July 9th, i bought mine and I am at 3,800. But my wife got tired of being in the passenger seat so she made me buy her a new 2012 Chevy Malibu for comfort. I probably wont get to drive my car much anymore since we go every where together. Good for me because I was wanting to put it in storage anyway with low miles and preserve it and use it for my retirement fund, lol.

Got mine three weeks ago and am at 3700 miles. Had CEL issues from about 700-1300 miles. Hope they're gone for good.

jflogerzi · 09-20-2012, 12:59 AM

you guys are nuts! I just cracked 4K and I had my car snice May 29th!

Superhatch · 09-21-2012, 07:05 PM

At 13 and change.

totally · 12-27-2012, 02:44 PM

I've had mine for about four months now and crested 11000 this week. Had some CEL problems between 500 and 1500, and another around 3500, but no problems since then.

The dealer had applied one of the recommended fixes for the problem, I forget which one, when I purchased it.

thebear21 · 12-27-2012, 02:49 PM

screw you guys! gas is $4.08 in hawaii at best!

^ You live on a Pacific island and pay cheaper prices than Europe, shut it.
