    Had both of my NZ new but second hand 2007 Outback and Legacy airbags replaced.Both cars have clicked over 100,000k’s and are in very good condition.Drove Outback in with no airbag light,drove out with airbag light on.Returned vehicle and problem fixed,but damage to dash 25 mm dia vinyl missing,lever marks around center vents,scratched glove box and panels,glove box misaligned.Legacy faired better with dash center speaker clips damaged and a hell rattle.Workshop managers response,I didn’t do the job.Service mangers response,nothing.

    Make an appointment to see the general manager..

    He will sort it out..

    Unless you have a baffled sump and an efficient breather system you are best to avoid building centrifugal forces..

    The two corners that need attention are the entrance and exit from the back straight..

    At Higgins use all the track by approaching on the far left and turn into the apex and sweep out to the outside on exit..

    Avoid max revs by changing up a gear if possible thru the apex..

    The sweeper can be taken with a "motorcross" line..

    Enter down the inside and brake across the track to the outside ,"the berm"..

    Then turn into the apex and exit to the outside of the corner..

    Both of these methods will minimise centrifugal forces..

    Remember the experiment you did at school with the half full bucket of water swinging around and the water staying in the bucket..

    Avoid this effect....
