I never lost one hubcap on my Honda Civic in 8 years. In the 4 years I've had my 2000 OBS I've probably lost about 4. Is there anyway to keep the things on or...
Well, the real solution is to just get alloy wheels. But, if you insist on Steelies, then I've just used the $20 caps from Wal-mart and haven't had any ...
Frustruating, isn't it. I'm missing one myself. I saw an OBS at the mall yeasterday that had plastic zip-ties holding the covers on. Ugly, yes, but I...
I just rotated my tires myself the other day, so I had to take the hubcaps off and that was the hardest part of the job. I have the stock hubcaps and they...
Yeah, that's what my wife's Impreza has/had. I hate those things. They are the worst to try and get locked on or off. And they're not fool-proof either...
Well, I might just try the ugly twist tie route since the wheels look even uglier without the hubcaps. It sounds like a pain getting them on and off. Can you...
I took the easy way out by buying some used Legacy 15" alloys. They look much nicer, nothing falls off, and they are sure to boost my mpg since they weigh...
Yeah, if you have the rings and you want to go to "normal" hubcaps you'd just pry them out with a screwdriver or something. Then the "springy" (just the...
The "springy" hubcaps are held in by a tension ring. Thr ring is held to the back of the hub cap by plastic clips molded as part of the cap. You press this...
I have a '99 OBS (which recently reached the 100,000-mile mark). I lost my first hub cap (the PC term is "wheel cover") shortly after getting two new front...
Hi- I have totalled my WRX recently due to what I belive to be an ABS/brake problem. More specifically, the braking distance increases on a slightly uneven...
I don't think this is an abs problem specific to Subaru. All ABS can be fooled by uneven surfaces. I've seen it happen on numerous vehicles. It's all triggered...
I have to agree. They keep getting better ABS systems out there, but they still can't quite make them fool-proof. They're still only based on the principle...
I noticed that if I am in the powerband (above 3500RPM, even at steady throttle) and I abuptly lift off the gas because of traffic, I get a bucking response...
By "bucking", do you mean you feel like you get pushed forward (indicating a sudden decrease in speed), followed by a feeling of getting pushed back ...
I guess what I mean is that instead of decelerating smoothly, it decelerates for a second, then shakes a few times, then decelerates some more as if I had just...
Are you letting off the gas completely and staying off it while it's doing this? If so then I would say no it's not normal. If not, could it simply be a...
My foot was completely off the gas. After it happened a couple of times, I tried pressing lightly on the gas pedal the next time to smooth out the bucking but...
I just replaced the air filter. Now, when I floor it, I hear a deeper sound comming from about where the air filter is. I undid and redid the case the holds...
Got a light out on one side of my speedometer that is driving me freakin' crazy. Anyone pulled this out before or maybe swapped out gauges and can tell me how...
Probably a dumb question, but do you still have the old filter? Have you tried putting the old one back in to see if the sound goes away? If not, try that....
This sounds like what happened to me at Jiffy Lube. They always check the air filter for you while doing oil changes. The filter box was not put back together...
... check the air filter for you while doing oil changes. The filter box was not put back together correctly which is pretty easy to do and hard to see. It...
Hey all- Getting very close to buying an '04 Outback Sport (auto). Read a review of an '02 OBS on epinions, and came away a little nervous about it. Most stuff...
its quite easy actually. you do have to take the guage cluster out though. what you do is unscrew the two screws for the cover, pull it out then you have to...
