Re: Started with a delay engaging D, now it doesnt engage

Where are you located? Does the power light flash 16 times at start up? Have you checked the TCU for codes? http://www.surrealmirage.com/subaru/trans.html If there's no power light flashing on startup, I'm not sure you'll find anything, but it'd be good to check. How many miles are on the car? When...

Re: Engine runs rought at low rpms after seals change

Typically I would say that if the car did not act that way before you brought it to them, that what they did caused it. The timing belt tensioner automatically adjusts the tension. The noise may be the water pump or idler pullies if they did the work improperly or used inferior components. Can you ...

Re: Legacy 1st gen (ej22 engine), weird noise after accelera

another thing... in order to better appreciate the noise, adjust the youtube video quality to maximum, since its not a video, it's just a sound with a photo it will not be affected by your internet speed. if you listen to the video in the lowest quality (240p) you will NOT hear the noise, because th...
