I was told (or maybe read) that the 2006 Forester XT ground clearance is
lower than the other members of the Forester line to enhance the handling.
OK, that makes sense.  Then why is the 2006 Outback XT ground clearance
greater than the other Outback flavors offered?  Just ...

If anyone has a wiring schematic it would be a big help to me.  I get
no voltage in the high beam wire (measured at the headlight) and the
impedence in the ground wire changes from like 40 ohms to zero

It is hard to believe I have lived with this frustration for 9 years!
So here is my question:
Is it possible to get full control of my heating/cooling system?  Right
now there is a relay (or other unknown mechanism) that based on my

My 99 subaru outback has a transmission problem. When you put it in
drive it doesn't engage right away. Sometimes takes 20-30 seconds of
stabbbing the accelerator. Dealer says it's got an internal
transmission problem and the trans will soon die. Anyone have any

My '97 OBW will be 10 years old this Fall.  I seem to
remember that the air bag systems need to be checked after
10 years. Has Subaru extended this policy?
As a separate question, how reliable are the air bags after

When I test-drove and then bought my 2001 Outback Wagon, I heard a
low-pitched, smoothe squeak when backing up and braking, like backing
out of the driveway.  The former owner says it's always that way and
should be able to be fixed.  When I had the brakes done, the pads were

Can I disable the seatbelt chime in my 2006 Legacy?

Hey, all.
I have an 02 silver WRX Wagon which I've had on lease for 4 years. I've
been a light driver; the mileage on the car is about 26,000 miles
(42,000 km). I got it new, so I know exactly what it's been through.

I found a spare keyless remote on Ebay for a pretty good price.  I googled a
website that said that there was a programming button "by the driver's left

Thx, A.

Some questions for those of you who may have purchased in Subaru's
certified pre-owned (CPO) program.  I am looking for good ways to
search for CPOs from dealers outside my local area, and I am
considering how to work with my local dealer for maintenance and

I need to add some oil, but in checking the oil tag in the window, found out
that Subaru dealership used Castrol Syntec Blend.    Do I have to go out and
find this exact blend or is okay to mix with regular oil?   Do you always
need to make sure you have the same weight too... if ...

Greetings all,
  Doing the brakes on my Legacy last night and I stripped the Wheel stud. I
was able to get the stud knocked out of the hub and picked up new parts at
the dealer tonight. I tried to get the stud out last night and with the one
