Car Forum / Subaru Cars / February 2007Part Name /Number For Under Car Air Dam/Oil Filter Access
Hello, The piece that the oil filter access slider cracked. I need to replace that underbody piece and oil filter cover. I cant seem to find this piece on 1st subaru.com. Does any one know the name or number so I can see what 1st subaru charges . Thank you Just buy it from a dealer, or leave the whole thing off; what does it do anyway, besides keep water off the engine;if you hit something solid it's worthless I know I can get it from the dealer but I'd rather save some$$$. I know its not great protection but without it a lot of stuff is totally exposed. I wish they had some metal skidplates.

So it is important in spite of what self appointed experts say. BULLSHIT > BULLSHIT Nah, it's likely true. many plastic bits have a purpose. On some cars, even the plastic cover on the battery is to cool it or shield it from heat. FHI likely has wind tunnel tests indicating both aero and cooling advantages to the the shield. Doesn't mean you car is gonna self destruct without of course! There MAY be some aftermarket metal ones - ask around at www.ultimatesubaru.org - lots of offroad soob guys there.

Thank you http://www.subaruparts.com/ How about just cleaning the area around the opening and just using duct tape each oil change. |
