I have a noise under the hood of my 96 Legacy GT (automatic transmission). Its not your classic lifter noise and I think I've narrowed it down to either a cracked flex plate (this may be why my idle has gotten a little rough), a bad timing belt tensioner on the right side or main bearing noise. My question is how do you inspect the flexplqte? Does it have an inspection cover like an American car? Is there anyone in the Greenville, SC area who might be enough of an expert to give me some idea as to what the noise is? Thanks. By the way, this is my first Subie and I have really enjoyed it!
