i've got a 2002 obs with 17,000 miles on it and i've noticed this problem for quite some time now. it almost seems like the fuel injector might have problems,...
Yeah, mine does that too, in the morning when it's cold. As it's never been a problem after it warms up (and it warms up quickly), I'm not going to worry...
Good idea, but do be careful of your seat warmers, though. Apparently they can overheat and get damaged if covered - not that you can really use them as...
Did you get a letter from Subaru about ECM recall? I did a few months ago, and took it in, and had them check it (I bought my 2002 OBS in April of 2001). I...
ok, when i took my car in for the recall, they said that the wires were already capped?? and they could not perform the recall? they were as confused as i was...
When did you take it in for the recall? I'm assuming this is a Subaru dealer--which one?? And did you tell them what the car was doing, why you were bringing...
so here is the scoop mamma, I got my car same time you did (black with tinted windows also :-) when i took it in for its check-up (15,000) a month and a half...
It's been quite some time since I last posted here. I hope everyone is doing well. Anyway, I'm thinking of trading my '99 OBS for a 2002. The increased ...
I find the 2002 seats to be comfortable, but they are firm. If you prefer cushy seats, you may not like them. I like the side bolsters a lot. I drove it from...
I did the ECM recall on the Forester and it didn't fix this problem. ... From: subymamma To: subaruimprezaoutbacksport@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, September...
I'd have to agree. I'm 6'2 at 310 lbs. We took the OBS on a break in run of about 900 mi. We found the seats very comfortable. Highly pleased with the...
Did they try resetting the ECU? (Probably not)--this just may help and it's an easy thing to try. Another idea is to go to i-club.com and search around...
Hi All, I've noticed a clunking noise coming from underneath the car (2 month old 2002 OBS 5-speed, usually when changing from first to second gear. I'm not...
I got got a 2000 OBS a few months ago, and the seats are the only complaint I have. To be fair, I am 5'2", 135 lbs. The curvature of the seat appears to be...
Just wanted to let every one know that I will soon be the proud owner of a silver 2003 OBS!! Anyone who has owned 2002 or earlier, any advice for me. Any...
Bought a 2002 in March. Low mileage on it now 3,000, but we love it. Nothing bad so far, every thing great. Cool car! Best of luck. ... From: "masterkomp"...
Here's another thing I thought of they could check--the mass air flow sensor. Come on guys,help me here--wouldn't this conttrol the amount of air mixed with...
It's an individual preference. Some don't like the seats, but I adore them. Off and on my back gives me trouble, but on those days when I get into my car...
My only complaint isn't the seat itself, but the fact that it doesn't move back far enough. I also have a 1970 Datsun 240Z and I drove a 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT...
Back again for wheel bearings. Can you believe that now the fronts are now going. The dealer is being ok so far- though I am pretty sure that since the car is...
i have a 2000 manual obs and the part number for the bearing is 28016FC001 (right) and 28016FC000 (left) there are also three gaskets that should be replaced...
just fuel for the fire. a tiny bit off topic, but relative to subaru's ever-present wheel bearing problems, good info here even if you don't have an SVX. go to...
I just got a 2-pak at Costco for less than $20 - I couldn't resist. They're two-toned grey and black but they also had blue/black and red/black. They don't fit...
yep, I have to agree Subymamma's car looks like pure sex! I liked the silver when I bought mine, but I think now the black does look best...although I'm not...
My wife and I are the proud new owners of a 2003 OBS. We pick up the car tomorrow and I'm just wondering what the recommended break in period for the engine...
Did a search at i-club and learned there was a technical service bulletin stating that if one bearing goes bad, both are to be replaced with Legacy sealed...
i'm trying to get an idea of how much i should pay for either a new '02 outback sport, or also considering a '99 just off a lease with 36,000 miles (black)....
I paid $25400 (Canadian) for my 2002 OBS in April 2002. The list price is $27400. I was looking very closely at a 2000 at another dealer with 30,000 km on it...
