I have a 2000 Outback that is nearing time for the timing belt replacement. I have lost some faith in my local mechanic, so I checked with the dealer for their estimate for this work. Quoted $1,175 to replace

| piston slap common? | 26 Feb 2008 08:47 GMT | 13 |
My mechanic said my 1998 Legacy's tapping sound (which goes away warmed up) may be piston slap. It has 136,000 miles on the 2.2 liter engine. No troubles with car except for the light tapping noise. Is this a common issue for Subaru's? I read on one website that the piston slap ...

| 1998 Legasy Oil Leakage? | 25 Feb 2008 04:17 GMT | 2 |
Our local sub dealer is telling my Grandaughter that the leak from her Legasy is from the engine oil pump and that it will cost a thousand dollars to repair or replace the pump. Guess my thought was that the oil pump was internal and shouldn't show leakage on the outside of the ...

Just purchased a used 2007 Subaru Legacy 2.5i wagon. The display on the dash has the ability to display "instantaneous fuel consumption" and average fuel consumption, both in liters/100 km. The average fuel consumption reading is tied to the trip odometer, so that is where the

| Extended Warranty | 21 Feb 2008 08:58 GMT | 6 |
I have just purchased a demo 2007 Legacy 2.5i wagon with the touring package and 18,000 km. I have not been able to find out much about the long term reliability of Subarus. Given the kms I would put on the car, the best option for me would be a 6 year, 140,000 Km warranty for

| Benefits of Frameless Windows? | 21 Feb 2008 00:53 GMT | 12 |
Any positive reasons why Subaru uses frameless windows? Yesterday I was again reminded of one of the down sides on a long highway trip with cross winds gusting over 40 mph coming from the right. The periods of wind noise coming from the driver side window

About half of the heating elements in my heated rear windscreen have stopped working in my 97 Outback. Out of curiosity I phoned Autoglass (UK) for a quote for a replacement windscreen. After the nice gentleman took all my details he asked me was I seated. To my surprise he ...

My 2003 OBS needs rotors, drums, pads, shoes, and possibly a caliper. I have family members who have replaced the same on their own cars (corolla, chrystler), will the subaru be much different? Is the ABS sensor going to be an issue for this job?

| Bar's Head Gasket Repair, another follow-up... | 19 Feb 2008 10:35 GMT | 22 |
Well. It finally stopped snowing/icing enough (actually got near 50 degrees for a minute today) for me to change the oil on the Subaru GL Hatch that had the Head Gasket Repair stuff thrown in. Pleasing results. I did not see any green around the gaskets where I had

| 2001 Impreza Transmission Problem | 19 Feb 2008 02:00 GMT | 6 |
Hi gurus, so my Impreza drives just fine, no problems, until I've driven for maybe 30-45 minutes and everything is good and warm -- then I get a really nasty klunking sound when I'm parking my car (i.e. turning the

| '04 Forester - problems with engine flooding? | 18 Feb 2008 18:20 GMT | 5 |
My 2004 Forester has recently begun having what looks to be engine flooding problems. Three times in less than a month, I have gone to start the car - the engine cranks, so it's not a battery issue, but it won't 'catch' or ignite.
