I get that, too. Just this morning again, in fact. I find that when it occurs, if I *really* concentrate on my clutch release, I can avoid it. Sad that I ...
It's happened once before. It happened again at lunch. I came out to my car, which was shut off while I was in the store for about 15 minutes, and when I...
... NON ... I'm guessing it's normal, then, and not a service issue. It's not excessive and the problem hasn't gotten worse or better in a year of driving the...

I had the same problme in my outback. I took it to the dealership they said it was not covered under warranty. Since I had 68k and had to have it done. What I...
It's amazing the different experiences one can have. My 1997 Legacy GT has 90,000 miles on it and has given me zero problems. It was my first Subaru and since...
ROFL! I thought the guy was telling me to. Hehe. Okay, I've had the '03 WRX wagon 5-speed 6 months. I've got that headlight noise as an outstanding question....

Thanks, good points. Yes, my driving behaviour is on the wasteful side--I drive steadily but not slowly--though, with the morning and evening commute, doing...
