06 impreza wagon, with manual tranny. when engaged in 1st and 2nd gears, if
you release the throttle, at aroune 1000rpm, the car will jerk bouncily. It
only happens in 1st and 2nd gear, not in 3rd or 4th.

I'm looking to buy narrower wheels for winter tires for my 2004 WRX STi.

A little while back, I posted about having my cat replaced under warranty
on a 99 OBS.  Shortly after the work was done (couple days), I had an

I just bought my first WRX and I am as happy as I should be. The car is
a beautiful driver in every way. Its my second new Subaru and likely not
my last. I live in Calgary and the All Wheel Drive is just what's needed
around here. I was pleasantly surprised with the heated ...

I've just bought a new 2006 Outback 2.5 i Limited and seem to be having
a problem with the trip computer. When I have it on the setting that is
supposed to display the current miles per gallon the reading fluctuates
wildly. For example, it will jump from 13mpg to 29mpg to 70mpg to ...
