i appreciate your responses guys. however, i've had my rotors turned once already and i'm not sure if this can be done again. i've called a few local stores such as pep boys, advance auto, mainline...etc... at salvo i can get new rotors for 15.99 each which sounds like a deal. however, i think they ...

I have the Goodyear Regatta 2. Pretty nice tires with a 75,000 mile warranty.

thanks guys for the replies. when changing the rotors do I need to get new brake pads eventhough the ones on the car now have only 5k on them?

Time came to replace my warped rotors. Any good places to get new front and rear's for a good price?

no, i don't shift into neutral everytime i come to a halt. just wanted to know your expertise opinion, that's all =)

also, i'm guessing the ppl who are backing up and pop their car into drive, without making a complete stop ruin their transmission? what exactly gets ruined?

When driving an automatic transmission, does it hurt the transmission to put it in neutral while the car is still rolling, in drive?

Also, does it hurt the transmission, if your car is rolling forward in neutral, and you put it in drive without letting the car come to a halt first?

thanks

is there any reason our Legacy's come with a 2 outlet muffler from the factory, as opposed to one that most car manufactures use. Are there advantages, gains, disadvantges,...?

any other ideas, people?

i had the same problem except this problem occured when the car was in "D" instead of "R." I've been driving it since, and the problem has not yet popped up again. If I were you, I'd try to put it in reverse around your house, perhaps a driveway. This problem might not re-occur a...

Id guess that stopping so quickly caused the pump to run dry.

not too sure what has happened...

Checked my fluid level, everything seems fine. I always take care of the car and its maintence intervals are always done on time. I pretty much baby it. My parents have had the car since new and babied it as well. BTW, the car has 135k miles on the odo.

1) Lately, I've been having trouble getting my car to shift out of park. The button on the shifter, freezes up or something and the only way to shift out of park is through pressing the shift release button located on the bottom of the shifter. This happens sometimes, but I'd like to see what you gu...

I need a passenger front door and a passenger rear door. I have a 1992 Legacy. The doors you are selling are from what year legacy and what condition are those 2 particualr doors in?

I'm very interested

Hey Guys, I need to find a front, right, passenger door, as well as rear right, passenger door. Can anyone help me with this. I don't need the interior trim nor do I need glass, I just need the metal doors itself with exterior moldings. I don't care what color they are. Can someone direct me to a li...

i've always thought that if you get bigger rims or tires, you would accelarate slower but have a higher top speed. eventhough the difference in tire size wasn't significant, i felt my car weaker. don't know why? perhaps the width puts on more resistance

I've always used the factory recommended tire size which is 185/70/hr14. however, when i needed new tires, i tried out a set of 195/65/14's and noticed that my car wasn't as response as it was before in terms of acceleration. Can anyone explain this? It felt a little more responsive in terms of hand...

the tire size that is recommended from the factory is 185/70/14 instead of 185/75/14 that you've listed.

I've read somewhere that the reason the transmission locks up when it warms up is for the simple reason that when you release the throttle, the rpm's stay at where they were and gradually come down. This allows for instant power in case if the need be arises. When the transmission isn't locked up th...

thanks

the tires are all the same width. the factory tire size, which I follow is 185/70/HR14. The factory recommendation is 30psi front and 29psi rear. I usually put in 33 front and 32 rear. I'm still wondering why they recommend the tires to be inflated this way. Also, what tire pressures do you guys hav...

nice, keep us updated

my car requires 30 psi up front and 29psi in the rear. why does subaru recommend more tire pressure in the front when most cars require the same pressure for both front and rears?

As the topic say's...When do you folks use either of these modes?

thanks for the prompt response guys

thanks a lot for the prompt respnse guys. the car has been doing this ever since it was new. i'm just wondering why in our cars and not in others. i know that in many cars this might go on for less than half a mile and then the auto shifts up a gear or goes into O/D. is anyone else experiencing this...
