Hey, I have a small but growing leak somewhere around the inlet to my muffler. This is the original exhaust with 270+K on it, so I'm a bit concerned that when...
... If I am not mistaken, all Subarus 1996 and newer are equipped with OBD-II. Any old OBD-II code scanner should work. You can buy them at Pep Boys or your...
I just read the post about having two different set of tires on the OBS, and I thought I would throw out this cautionary tale. A couple months ago I was told I...
I notice the temperature of the air coming out varies drastically, from cooler than the outside air to FRIDGID, no matter what temperature you set. I'm in...
Absolutely true. I've been driving AWD Subies for years and you always change 4 tires at once. Any good tire salesperson should know this and if they don't, ...
Yeah, you don't want to have any more difference in tires than absolutely possible. I think you're only supposed to have 1/2" max difference in circumference...
Thanks for the tip about a possible tranny flush. I've finally determined I've GOT to get it fixed this week, because having a 2WD Subaru is killing me. The...
Friends, I found some of the very useful (free) magazines on net.. For computer, telecom, electronics, laser, photonics, chip, offshoring and what not,...
Then again...I realized a tranny flush probably won't help me after all. My car is fine in the 2 wheel drive mode, so I think that probably indicates the...
I won't guarantee either way. BUT, in my wife's case, it was fine in 2WD as well. Just something about the old fluid not being able to produce the right...
So there may still be some hope after all... I'll find out tomorrow. Everyone keep their fingers crossed! (In the meantime I picked up a rear hatch lock...
Ok - with stories of trashed differentials I think I've learned my leason that my tires ought to be the same circumference front back and practically speaking...
Hi Chris. I would recommend (if you can afford it) geting rid of the Eagles and buying 4 Turanza's. They are quiet, ride great and have wonderful traction in ...
Well, alas, they did have to replace my tranny case, but the solenoid (?) was fine, so it *only* ran me $900 instead of over $1000. The real good news is that...
Has anyone seen where these are available? I've tried Googling it up and down, and checking Ebay, but have never seen one available. I've only seen it once,...
Disregard, finally found them. Don't know why I couldn't before making my post... anyway, you can get them primed here for $110 (more for painted): ...

I posted a picture of the 'after' picture of my car in the 'Files' section titled "Rear-ended." It shows what a night of reckless driving can do. I was...
The OBS seems to be a magnet for big pickups. Last year my wife's 2001 OBS also was rear ended at a red light by a large pickup truck. Luckily only the bumper...
Well, let's see....this is my Subie's third round of body-work. Fifth, if you count the two broken windshields! There were the craters in the hood from the...
I find that my Outback has thin winshield glass. It's already had two chips and cracks. I don't think it was like that for any other car that I've owned. And I...
As at 45,000 miles I'm in need of my first set of replacment tires for my 2002 OBS, I've been reading with interest all the discussions here on the subject....
You should think about getting a set of steel wheels with dedicated snows and some real Summer tires. My 2005 WRX Wagon loved those Dunlop M3s last Winter....
Heck, I got WRX alloys from there for $75 that I use on my 97' OBS... I just get tired of nasty rusting steel wheels that require a sledge to get them off even...
Don't get steel rims if you decide on having 2 sets of tires. buy from Tire Rack, who will sell you new WRX takeoffs, mounted, and balanced on the tire of...
