Well do to the inflated costs of parts in Hawaii I elected to have the rear rotors turned and viola that fixed the problem. Mind you they looked and felt fine just as the fronts did before turning. I asked the technician if they were significantly out of round and he said they were not bad at all. I...

rotors shiney and smooth in back just as they were up front...

only feeling the "juddering" at the pedal and my 94 Legacy wagon FWD definitely has disc brakes in the rear...

when the rotors were turned they were checked and within specs.

I just removed my front rotors and had them resurfaced at Napa and installed new OEM pads. My brakes are still "juddering" although not as bad.

Could this be coming from the rear brakes or is there something I overlooked.? It only happens upon braking...

thanks, mp

I am trying to remove the rear windshield wiper arm in its entirety for repainting. The fronts had a cap and 12mm nuts but I can't figure out how to remove the rear wiper arm.

Not the piece the holds the blade - the whole metal arm.

Can anyone help me here??

Thanks,

Has anyone successfully fixed air leaks from the seals around the front doors? My drivers door seal really whistles once I am going over 40mph.

I wonder if there is any window adjustment possible

Has anyone replaced the seals? Probably too expensive.

thanks

Subaru service manager refused to pay for the wiring harness but offered to throw in a few hours of labor towards the repair. Called Subaru and was refered to "Shuman Carriage" who contracts with Subaru to provide warranty mediation here in the state of Hawaii. Shuman made a call on my beh...

Here is the update on my electrical hassles. New wiring harness was installed yesterday, dealer had the car for ~ 7 1/2 hours. Everything seems to be working properly. My total expenses for this repair are now $619.70 Service manager was not present and service writer was unwilling to acknowledge re...

I wanted to thank Jason, Steve, and VRg3 for responding so quickly as tomorrow morning the car goes in to have the harness replaced. I have spoken with 3 mechanics and everyone agrees that they are totally liable for the entire repair and that the car should never have left the shop with a homemade ...

A few weeks ago I posted asking if anyone knew of a common relay or fuse that controled the power seat belt retractors, windows and door locks. Under the hood in the fuse box is a green colored 30A that is used for at least these functions. Mine blew due to a short in the system. I took the car to a...

Suddenly my power seat belt retractors, power windows, and power door locks have failed. (60K) It seems each has its own relay so it seems highly unlikely that I would have 3 relays fail at the same time. Anyone know of a common ground that I might check? Fuses look good under the hood and also unde...

Can anyone please tell me the labor cost for replaceing all four struts on a 93 legacy AWD sedan? I am planning on using KYB GR2 with stock springs and am hoping they will lessen the body roll during aggressive cornering. My car leans too much. With only 59,000 miles the springs and struts should st...

Thanks for replying!! Josh, I am going to have to go with your advice. I am the person who recently emailed you regarding tire size for WRX wheels. I have the wheels and the Bridgestone Potenza RE750 in size 205/50/16 that are ready for mounting just as soon as I perform the brake fluid change. Will...

Can someone tell me the order for bleeding brakes on a 93 Legacy sedan without ABS? I am doing the 60K maintenance and changing the fluid.

thanks

Greetings, Can someone with firsthand experience please tell me if I can fit WRX wheels and tires on my 93 legacy sedan. The 205/55/16 would replace the stock 185/70/14 and are 8/10 or an inch taller. Tire Rack suggests using 205/50/16 tires. I live in Hawaii and never encounter slush or snow. I int...
