That turn (from what can be seen) should be easy at 68mph. Manarius, for you to say you shouldn't go around any turn at 70mph is absurd. Yes, keltik, you are the driver, but if you're to think a tire blew out than there should be no reason to place the entire blame on you. Over corrected, under corrected, etc... You live and learn, but to think a tire blew out cleary shows that something went terribly wrong that wasn't under your control. I sent u a pm - gotta question for you.

Dude, he said a tire blew out. What the hell are you talking about

I willing to bet that both wheel assembleys in the ditch are ****ed, The hubs/steeering knuckles, suspension, suspension mounts, cross member, sways, endlinks, etc.... I wont go into detail, I'll let keltik devulge the info if he wants to. And the fact that he said "the car is terminal" - I took that to mean it's totaled. What else would it mean? If I work for an insurance agency why are you telling me how air bags work. From just looking at the front clip, it seems that they would deploy from entering the ditch.

the cars is totaled, so actually you should try to figre out why the air bags didn't deploy and are unfortunate, although air bags hurt, they're much softer than a steering wheel. Good to see ur alright.

The best way is, to set it up on a timer (one the can withstand the amount of energy), so it turns on a couple hours before you leave in the morning/night/whenever.

Ive got a factory one on my '96 obw. I like it, car is blowing warm heat in about a minute. Its a coolant type (I think all factory ones are), so the oil will still be cold, well prolly a lil warmer than usual, but the heater simply circulates the coolant. Nothing to do with the oil.

not headlights......they're amber turn signals, without the egg-yok look

get some silverstar clearish bulbs (more of a cool ionized blueish) that glow yellow/amber.

how long is break-in periods for new clutches/flywheels

Dyno oil wont cut it in these winter months....matter of fact its not cutting it. I don't believe their are differences in the us and euro versions. Sure the euro version is "TDL" and USA is reg. gear oil...

bump for set's input

dont think this has been stated but, $3800CDN is a lil over $3,300USD

I would say its the coil. Did you use oem plug wires? (new is new, but you should stick with oe wires)

ahhhhhhhhh. I wish gear oil was free I've already spent over a $100 on gear oil in a year and haven't found anything good (for my tranny). Do you ue the regular synthetic or severe duty syn. gear oil. or better yet; what gear oil do you use?

where do u/u guys find Valvoline SynPower gear oil. I cant find it anywhere, and the instant oil change shop will only install it (not sell it).

wet grass is no joke...its pretty much ice for all intents and purposes

Why don't you just use seafoam again?? Would a damaged (by water, etc..) MAF throw a CEL??

gc...do you have any before/after pics. I have done the sanding clear coating thing before, but all my clear coats looked like ****. I am going to give this a try as my non-clear coated lights are startingto look crappy again.

Subaru's AWD can handle deep snow, you end up being a snowplow if its too deep but should manage/ has managed. Ill try to get some pics.... Always bring a shovel just in case.

sweet thanks for the direct answer. Sealing up the little area where the water can still pass by the snorkel very soon. So I changed the diff and motor oil and they seem to be fine. Do you guys think I am in trouble??

.

gauges were working, lights were off

not in the rain, just the flooded road. I do have a snorkel Yes the obw in my pic

So I went driving on a not road surface today. It got pretty crazy in some parts, narrow, rutted, deeper ruts, high centering but going to fast to be stoped, turn after turn, mud, etc..... Well I came to a spot where the water was prolly up to the top of the bumper so I floored it. I was close enough to not get a whole bunch of momentum, actually I prolly didnt even gain any momentum by the time I dove in. The car died, full gas and it just stopped. No revs, no spinning, just a sudden drop in rpm. I thought it stalled, but it didn't. After a few seconds I threw it back into first and proceded to get out. So what do you guys think?? Oh, another thing...when I got back to the road I floored it, it was going good then it was a sudden jerk - loss of power....so what gives?? This only happens when wet, I noticed this after once before when I went through a deep puddle (on road).

my 2.2 ticks. don't all subies tick? mine is louder on cold mornings (40-) but it always ticks.
