idosubaru Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 2002 OBW - all the ebay kits are for manual transmission vehicles and the amazon kits are too ambiguous to trust for fitment or say "doesn't work" on my vehicle. Mine is an H6 but it appears the starter is the same across H4 and H6 says subaru parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 Looks like you can guess and probably get it right and most ebay listings right now are for manual trans and most amazon listings are for automatics - looks like two different length plungers between them. Anyway - i'm surprised that after a quarter century+ of production this isn't simpler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 go to the amazon reviews, look for the search reviews box and try putting in 'automatic' or 'auto' and see if a reviewer has actually used the part in an auto. this works well most of the time, but I admit, it may not for something with low sale or only a few reviews.

idosubaru Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 That's a good idea.bi didn't think about auto but I did search for Subaru and got only one hit of the guy with a manual trans and wrong length. I ordered one so I'll try it out in a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 They're very generic parts and apply to a zillion various cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB's93LegacyL Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Try this site. If your starter is made by Nippondenso, they probably have what you need. I've bought from them. http://www.nationsautoelectric.com/densoparts.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
