2001 Subaru Outback wagon.
There is a strange whistling/buzzing noise when up to speed (more
than about 55 mph.)  It seems to be affected by the wind.  It
appears to originate just outside the left (driver's) window.

I've got a question about a friends' subaru.  It's a 1995 or 96 (he
doesn't know) Legacy wagon (2.2L).  He just took the car in for a new
clutch and when he got it back the check engine light was on.  He took
it back and the mechanic gave him the usual BS about the O2 sensor and

Is it just me, or is anybody else dissatisfied with the lack of choice
in the color of the interior of the Foresters (US market)?
I don't really like beige very much, and unfortunately, nearly all of
the 2006 Foresters seem to only come with a beige interior...

compressor,checked th' fuses,and repaired the leaks in the hoses, any

I saw the local Mazda/Subaru Dealership offering a 10 Year / 250,000 mile
warranty with the sale of a new Subaru or Mazda.  Unfortunately I swung
through the lot after closing hours but all the new vehicles had tags in the
window.  Is this just a promotional thing for this region ...

Got my new Legacy GT a few weeks ago.  Today I get in the mail from SOA a
wonderful <sarcasm> offer to *install* a cabin filtration system.  I assume
it's the same (if not identical) thing as in my WRX.  I wonder though why,
first off, it wouldn't be stock in their most "upscale" ...

I am looking to get a Subaru Impreza Wagon, probably 2002-2004 range,
depending on price.
What I would like to hear opinions on is how is the Manual 5-speed on
these models?

I've been reading some topics, and one thing makes me concerning that if my
2006 impreza 2.5i wagon manual has a real center differential?
because it seems to me that it only mentions the viscous coupling locking
mechanism... does it lack the real geared center differential?

The headlight switch on my 2000 Forester (on the end of the turn signal
stalk) is getting progressively more flakey - when I use the turn
signals or wiggle the switch the headlights flicker off and on. The
problem seems localized to the switch/knob portion (i.e. not down in

I am going to a ski trip to Whistler (British Columbia, Canada) on the
first week of December. I am driving a 2005 Subaru Forester 2.5x. Do I
need snow tires? Or snow chains? I have no experience at all since I
used to drive to a bus stop and let the resort's bus take me up to the

  2005 Subaru OBW, L.L. Bean edition.
  Unless I am reading the manual wrong or doing something else wrong, I
believe that the Subaru engineers have made a serious mistake with their
fog light.

does anybody know what kind of code scanner i can use(that works for this
car)  to diagnose the check engine light?

  May sound like an odd question, but what the hey, I'll ask it anyway.
  2005  OBW, L.L. Bean edition.  We park the car in a sloped driveway
and like to pull in nose first.  When we do so, three out of our four
doors will stay open.  I.e., the driveway isn't so steep that you ...
