Can somebody please please please tell me how to take apart my steering column and get to my turn signal stick? I must have a short or a broken wire in my...
Hi Everyone, I'm a recent owner of a "used" 2003 Outback Sport. I was downsizing vehicles and I've always heard good things about the Outbacks, and I found...
Well, I can't say for sure about an 03' Outback Sport, but I can say this: My wife has a 97' Impreza L sedan with about 110K miles on it. It's needed front...
Oh yeah, my brother also has an 04 WRX, and my aunt/uncle have an 04 Forester, I think they're both in the 30-40K mile range. No problems at all that I've ...
... Oh, I don't think the dealer is lying about it. The alternator failure is probably a fluke, I've had other cars where the alternator has lasted eons and...
Hi, 2000 OBS owner here too. I have the exact same problems. I too would like to avoid the dealership! Anyone have any ideas? If there are two of us with...
My take is that the used car dealer isn't going to solve this one. You need to take it to dealer or a shop that specializes in subies. (sometimes these are run...
... The dealer in question is a Subaru dealer. The car was bought new, maintained, and traded at the same dealer 2 2/3rds years later. I was fortunate that I...
Hello all, I have a 2002 OBS and I've recently started to put Ethanol Blend in my car to test it out (mainly because it's 2 cents cheaper than regular on ...
Marc, Here in Iowa, we've had ethanol blend for quite a while. I've used it in all the vehicles I've owned (96 Outback, 91 Blazer, 91 Civic) and had no ill...
Hi all, Here's my question....I bought my '99 OBS used in '03 and was given the keyless entry remote with the key when I bought it from the dealership. I then...
Matt, I know that you can reprogram the remotes, and wouldn't be suprised if your working remote was reset b/c someone couldn't find the lost remote. If...
Hmm...the owners manual...never thought to look there! heheh I'll have to check that out tomorrow. Thanks for the suggestion, Matt ... From: matt zehner To:...
I just joined the group, and wanted to say hello. I have a 1997 Impreza Outback Sport, a fanstastic car. In the next month or two, I need to replace the front...
Umm, I don't think you need them. I'm trying to remember what would actually be helpful... Let's see. You'll need a socket for the axle nut. I forget the exact...
I am selling half of a Subara / Yakima Round Bar Kit. It is brand new and is in the original box. I needed only half the kit (one bar,etc.) to mount my...
2002 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport for sale in Gainesville, FL (near Jacksonville) - $12,500 OBO. Excellent condition, warranty, low mileage. See pictures on...
I need to add a hitch to my Subaru so I can tow a small trailer (4x6). I understand the dealer can do this... What is the going price at the dealer for a hitch...
I had the dealer do mine...for the same purpose as yours (Except while I haven't yet got the trailer, I've been thinking more along the lines of a 4X8. Strong...
Oh sorry, for the rest of your question, per the owner's manual, at least my 2002 OBS is good for towing 2,000 pounds, and the factory hitch is good for 2,000...
Oh sorry, for the rest of your question, per the owner's manual, at least my 2002 OBS is good for towing 2,000 pounds, and the factory hitch is good for 2,000...
My wife and I both have 97's, she's got a U-haul hitch, and I've got some other sort of generic one. They both hook up the same. It's just two bolts to...
I put a hitch on my subaru 97 2.2L manual trans OBS, 98 autotrans Forester and 2001 manual trans Outback Legacy. ( the Outback Legacy is mine and others...
Yeah, I always forget there's more to it than just "the specs". I've never had trouble going or stopping with either of our auto 97' Imprezas (OBS or L sedan)...
I would concur with that. The big issue is your ability to control the trailer.... There are circumstances when the trailer will try to push the car around....
I also forgot to mention that I do deal with hills and I've upgraded my 97's brakes to the larger twin piston fronts and discs in the rears. I wasn't terribly...
Levi - the better brakes are a good move. With the smaller trailers it is difficult to find one with auxiliary brakes anyway....Most trailers only have brakes...
Oh - I just realized 007 you said cost at the dealer LOL Try pricing out at Uhaul or another independent first over the phone then the dealer. I think the...
