2007 Legacy GT turbo feed banjo bolt


Recommended Posts

Following https://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/remove-all-banjo-filters-222758.html

 

Took off the metal bracket that connects the up pipe to the block.

 

I do not see anything that looks like the other banjo bolts. The yellow rectangle is where the bolt was that holds the bracket and the red rectangle is what looks like where the banjo bolt should be. Is that correct?

07-09's have the bolts up top in the first photo in the thread you linked from corvetrussian.

 

That bolt he pulled out is the one your looking for.

if that link doesn't work search for Banjo bolts on 2009 WRX, there is a picture that shows where they are on the different years and models.

I just tried the link and it works.

Cool. Thanks guys. Makes sense and I can see it on the car now.

 

I removed every banjo bolt except this one under the air intake and the one in front of the timing cover. No filters.

 

Does the one under the air intake definitely have a filter?

 

This whole job started because I got P0011 and p0021 at the same time.

When I got those codes, my turbo lasted about a 1000miles. I got lucky. Listen to your turbo, if the sounds changes replace it ASAP.

 

I still have that filter that was remove in my desk here at some 10 years later.

 

The machine shop removed the front banjo filter when they reassembled the new short block in May 2012. They did call and ask me if I want it removed.

I have not driven the car since this happened. Going to remove the filter from under the air intake this weekend.

 

Can I get the crush washers locally? They look bigger than brake banjo bolt crush washers. Anybody have the part #?
