| Free: RHD 1993 Subaru Legacy L Wagon - 2.2L - 4wd | 23 May 2005 03:00 GMT | 1 |
My postal Subaru finally has seen the end of the road. This wagon was used for rural postal delivery for 12 years and 217,000 miles. The engine and transmission both need to be rebuilt. The body also has it share of rust. It is located near Sandwich, Illinois.

| Subaru Outback - low ceiling - Legacy | 22 May 2005 22:37 GMT | 7 |
I'm fairly tall. My mother owns the Subaru Outback with the sunroof, and the ceiling is too low for me. I used to drive a '98 Legacy with no sunroof and the height was fine. But there is a '02 Legacy for sale with a sunroof. Is it likely to give the same problem? I'll

| Update on my experiences with my WRX STi '04. | 19 May 2005 21:09 GMT | 5 |
Greetings all. I thought I'd share my ongoing experiences with my STi which I traded my old WRX in for last mm.. September (2004) I believe. For the winter I purchased a set of Pirelli PZero Nero tires and put them on the stock rims. They were great, fantastic tires, but there were ...

| '96 Outback Question | 18 May 2005 20:47 GMT | 8 |
Am thinking of buying a '96 Outback 2.5 Auto w/112K miles for $4000.. Car seems okay. I am concerned that one has to use premium gas and the headlamps appear to have a milky appearance to them. Engine just rebuilt, from valves up, by expert mechanic due to timing belt

| Sun visor for 85 Subaru? | 18 May 2005 08:32 GMT | 5 |
The sun visor for my 1895 Subaru GL 4x4 wagon broke, and Subaru no longer carries replacements. Does anyone know where I can find one? The car is gray with blue interior, but I would rather have wrong color than no visor.

| High Mileage Preventive Maintenance Recommendations? | 18 May 2005 05:38 GMT | 7 |
My 98 Outback Ltd. has now reached 218,000 miles. It's had very few problems during its life, and I'd like to keep it that way. I know that once cars reach a certain age some very expensive things can go wrong, and would like to avoid that by doing the best possible preventive ...

Is there any way to get a horn that doesn't make me sound like a toy car? I tend to forget how squeaky it is and then I'm embarassed when I use it. I'm not looking for a 18-wheeler air horn (though that would be nice),

| How important is PCV valve? | 17 May 2005 22:44 GMT | 6 |
Yesterday I replaced the PCV valve in my 98 OBL, probably for the first time in over 60K miles. The old one wasn't stuck but it did have a lot of crud inside, and the outside of it was pretty rusty. In just the first mile of driving I noticed that the motor seemed smoother, didn't ...

| Forester seats | 17 May 2005 19:41 GMT | 6 |
You guys have convinced me that the Forester is ok on the highway (see topic below). I just drove one, and I agree. It has a vibration between 65 & 80mph, but that's probably a tire or wheel balance problem. Now, what about the seats. This is a fancy model, with leather seats. I

| 03 Forrester - Hard Start-Rough Idle-Turn Off/On It's OK | 17 May 2005 16:53 GMT | 6 |
This has happened about a year ago and then again this morning. It starts as if the battery is just about dead. Once it starts it idles really rough with a white smoky exhaust. When I turn it off and then restart it -- it acts as if nothing ever
