I'm looking into possibly buying an 05 to 07 WRX sedan or wagon. I had
wanted a wagon for utility, but I like the look of the sedan more. The
real need for utility is to transport five gallon buckets. I often
need to transport four of the five gallon buckets at a time. If this

I keep getting these enticing offered from Subaru and Liberty
Mutual to change my auto policy over to them.  Are they any
good?  I have had bad luck with other insurers and am a bit
antsy to switch from the one I finally like to a new provider.

Hello again,
It's been a few weeks since my original pleas for assistance.
Yesterday, my husband installed the eBay MAF, hoping to solve the
problem of frequent stalling when idling, especially after a long-ish

Two posts recommending WD40. WD40 is not a lubricant; in fact, over time

Our 1997 Outback, 2.5L twincam, has started throwing up "check engine"
lights with the error codes just saying it has detected misfiring in
cylinders 2 and 4. No further clues as to cause of misfire. When it is
driven there are occasions when indeed it seems to be weak, but if I ...

How do you reset the check engine light on a 97 Outback?  I don't have the

latch mechanism.

I have a 2000 subaru (legacy outback). The power window switch on the
driver side is acting up. The window can go down normally. However I
have to pull up really hard to make it go up. It seems to me that the
switch contact is bad.  Is it easy to disassemble the driver side

I've lived with this problem for years, but have finally gotten fed up
with it.
My 95 legacy is leaking fuel vapor somewhere, and I can't figure out
where. If I fill it much past 3/4 tank, then take a left turn with any

Any suggestions guys?

The lights flash twice, the interior light comes on and the doors

First of all, thanks SO much for all the thoughtful ideas and
suggestions on my original posted issue. I am game to try any
mechanical work myself (grew up helping dad hook mufflers up with coat
hangers, etc.). The hubby found an MAF on eBay for $25. But before we

I did my timing belt this weekend and had surprisingly few problems. I
used the article at endwrench in the archives section. It's a four
page article called 2.2 Liter Single Overhead Cam Timing Belt
