Otherwise ask David at STechnic for his towing contact. Cost me sub $100 from Kwinana to STechnic last time.

I meant 30km, not 30kkm >.<
I guess my right middle finger got a bit "Michael J Fox" there. I'll probably get the STechnic guys to tow it out. |

If you paid for ultimate roadside assistance with RAC each year (as i do), it would have been a free tow from when your car broke down to your place (perhaps saving your engine from your old man). And then a free tow to the mechanic too.
Have had 3 tows for free from the RAC in the past 2 years (not the Subaru). 2 of them weren't even my car, I'm just covered by my Roadside assistance because I was driving them.... One was my mates brother 4x4 from the middle of the bush near Nannup to Dunsborough after we popped a tyre and had no spare..... Look into it for sure it will save you money and peace of mind seeing as you are cruising around in a 20+ y/old car

Never trust a tow truck operator who's not a pure-bred pedigree bogan.
Update; The bonnet cable wasn't broken as it appeared at first. We finally managed to undo the bonnet catch through the grille and found that the cable had been cut and joined to a remote boot release solenoid that was defunct. So one can only assume the bonnet has not been opened for quite some time! Pressure tested the cooling system and found the system to be sound other than a leak from the heater core inside the cabin. Step one is to by-pass the core to determine if any other damage has been done to the engine when it overheated. At this stage it appears to be ok, so finger's crossed. Later on the owner can elect to repair the heater core but be warned it is a massive undertaking on a SVX. It would probably make more sense on an old car like this to rug up with more clothes in winter!! |
