[Climate control lcd not working]

Massively slow to the party here sorry. 

 

Mine was exactly the same sadly. I ended up having to buy a complete Macintosh head unit w/climate control to replace it. 

 

Massively frustrating, being that the part that failed is worth almost nothing 😂

 

 

[2006 BP5 legacy climate control screen failure]

Found the issue the LCD has cooked itself on the top left connection. 

 

Will need another ac unit to replace it.  Anyone wrecking a BP5 with the Macintosh system in it? (not sure if the AC is the same in Macintosh VS standard) 

 

Second photo is of model number SK2B

Thanks Andy_Mac, as long as I've got a place to start, all will be good. 

 

Appreciate the help guys 👍

Are these fascia panels/climate control units easy enough to get off? 

 

Any hidden screws or clips I should be aware of?  My Euro R had S*** loads... 😂

Hey guys, 

 

Just wondering if anyone can help before I hit up an auto sparkie.

 

The climate control screen in my BP5 Spec B legacy has stopped working, the climate control still works perfectly fine, its just the screen that has gone. 

 

The Macintosh system still works fine too. 

 

Just wondering if anyone has experienced this and can help me fix it. 

 

 

Cheers! 

[BP5 legacy Spec B exhaust breakage]

Gidday guys and girls...

 

Just driving home tonight and my car got a whole heap louder.

 

I pulled over and checked to find the rear mufflers seem to have broken off at the 2 into 1 section.

 

Anyone else had this issue?

 

Also, should I just reweld it? Or does some one have an aftermarket set for sale? Second hand preferably.

 

Cheers

[BP Legacy showdown]

Alright guys,

 

I've had a look in the search bar to see if this has already been asked, couldn't find anything... so here goes.

 

I am looking to import a 2007 - 2009 BP Legacy wagon and i'm struggling to decide between the two main engine options, the 3.0R and the 2.0T.

 

I will be getting a Spec B with the 6 speed manual regardless of what engine i decide on, so i was wanting some feedback from y'all on your experiences.

 

My main questions are the following:

 

- which would be faster?

- which is easier overall to live with? reliability etc.

- does the EZ30 have much of an aftermarket? or is it primarily a exhaust swap and a tune to boost power and thats it?

- fuel economy, what sort of figures do you see in your 2.0T/EZ30?  this wont really matter TBH but would be interesting to see.

- insurance... that old chestnut.  im guessing the EZ30 will be cheaper to insure?

 

Any information is totally welcomed.

 

Thanks team!
