hi, does anyone know where i can locate a chart or bulb # for interior light switches in a 01 outback? Specifically the center console seat heater bulb. Thanx...
Ah yes. They can be had from radioshack 2/1.99 i think. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=67103&highlight=HVAC+bulbs nipper ... [Non-text...
Subaru just got back to me, they are saying they dont offer the bulb that lights when you turn on your headlights and that i need the whole switch at a cost of...
Just because Subaru doesn't sell the bulb, or consider the bulb replacable, doesn't mean it can't be purchased and replaced. I think the cover pops off the...
Go into USMB, the link i showed, it has the bulb size. The bulbs are replacable if you dont mind working with rice or mini light bulbs. 24.00 isnt bad, i was...
Bought a 99 forester yesterday with a known problem with the engine making noise. The car lot said a rod was making noise, but the previous owner drove it for...
Say looked on the files in the group and it says for 99 the engine could be a phase 2. What is different about the phase 2 Mine shows the 165 hp on the...
Ted, if its got solid lifters it will make noise,kinda like a sowing machine,if they are to lose they will rattle.With it being aluminum motor it will echo...
DOHC is Phase 1, SOHC is Phase 2 motor. There are other differences, but nothing major, and the hp rating is the same either way. A common noise on these cars...
OK I can't find the factory trailer wiring plug. The service manual shows it should be some place in the line close to the rear power point. The instructions I...
It may be an option your car doesn't have. It could be part of the tow package, do you have the tow package ? If not, companies like Hoppy offer plug in...
The service manual for the 01 H6 shows the presence of the connector in the wiring diagram, and there is fuse in the fuse block. And that is all I know for...
I would expect a tow package to include a receiver, maybe a hitch, and the wiring. Often it would also include a heavy duty flasher. The owners manual may...
What's a jap car, anyway... I've got a Chevy Impala, and when I check CarFax on it, the country of manufacture is Canada, when I check my scoobaru, it comes up...
Why not just go to the dealership, have them lookup your VIN and find out for you? If your Subaru did come with towing package and trailer connector ask the...
The Outback comes with a place to plug in a separate trailer harness - that much is standard, and has been since 1996. You could then buy the hitch package...
Actually that is what I decided to do. The teardrop has a seven prong connector and I need the connection to charge the trailer battery. Thanks folks SS ... ...
I have a 99 forester that uses a 2.5 single overhead cam setup. If I want to replace the engine how many of these 2.5 can I use. Can I use the Dual overhead...
There seems to be alot of information on fixing these vehicles, but can't find anyone who gives technicial information on rebuilding. My guess is that's it...
... Hi Ted First get the Factory Service Manual for the car, it will show you every step in the engine over haul. I did for my 92 Subaru SVX LSi, and have...
I was going to suggest USMB too. These engies are re-buildable, but splitting the case can be a real PITA. nipper ... [Non-text portions of this message have...
Well technically you can only use one at a time :). You need to stay within SOHC if that is what you already have. you can go from 2.5 to 2.2 with in the same...

The wiring harness will need a conversion if you want to go from SOHC to DOHC or vice-versa, especially if you want to use heads with variable valve timing...
