My wife just got a Subaru Outback. It's a 5 speed limited and was one of
the last 2004's available around here.  We really like the car, but
there is one really annoying "feature".  When you take your foot off the
gas pedal, the car stumble/hesitates/clunks.  At low speed this ...

I see a couple of problems with my 1 month, 2000 miles old 2004
forester xs.  I would appreciate other owners experiences -
1. The alignment is off!  The car swerves to the right if the steering
is held in 0 degrees.  I see in this news groups that others have had

Sorry if this has been covered before but I have a '99 Impreza Turbo 5dr and
I am mystified by a huge amount of water that appears in the spare-wheel
well.  My Subaru garage is also at a loss to explain it too.  There doesn't
appear to be any leak from around the light clusters, the ...

My question is - If I buy a lockable ski roof rack from Thule or
Yakima and mount it on my factory installed crossbar, I still have to
lock the factory installed crossbar, don't I?  It is simply attached
to the rails by allen screws.  How do I lock these?  Is getting

Subaru friends, I have a '98 2.2  that has just undergone a timing belt and
shaft seal replacements (3).  Originally the crank seal was bad its
replacement is doing fine as is the RH cam seal.  My problem started when I
nicked the LH camshaft with a drill bit while trying to pull ...

As you all know Yokohama Geolander are fitted standard to new
Foresters - or they are in Australia anyway. Apart from Michelin
Synchone (not sure of spelling) do you know of any other suitable
on/off road combo tyres? (or 'tires' for Americans). I've heard that

Can a Subaru take a generic turn signal clicker?  I have a 1995 Legacy
sedan.  The clicker is very quiet.  For some reason the generic clickers
have two contacts, while the original uses three.  I am a little concerned
with making the switch.  It should be very easy to unplug the ...

We were recently in Port Townsend Washington and it seemed like every 4th
vehicle was a Subaru. Certainly a higher ratio of Subie's to other cars than
I see locally.

I got a mail today from Subaru saying they need to put in special
additive to the cooling system which will take 15 mins. of time.
What is this? Anyone got same mail?

Compressor, etc. seem to be functioning correctly.
Can I recharge myself?

I just purchased a 2004 Subaru XS Premium.  Love it, so far but have a
few of questions the dealership didn't answer to my satisfaction.  Also
couldn't glean if from other paperwork or websites.  Here they are:
Does the vehicle have an alarm/antitheft system?  I know it has a ...

I just put an AEM Cold Air Intake in my 02' WRX, every where I read said to
reset your ECU when you're done.  How do I do that?

Thanks to everyone who put up with my questions over the past month.
With your coaxing, there's a brand new '05 STi sitting in my garage.
Wow, what a car!
Frown to grin in 1.6 seconds!
