  1. I have the same problem With my 05 legacy Gt turbo Sedan. I have no idea what it is either. I have ckd the car from frasme to engine to trans and no leaks. That burning smell is still there though. Darin
  2. Hi It is called a mirror gusset and is not too hard to replace. You need to remove the door panel. Then remove the mirror. Ther is 1 tenmm nut and 2 phillips scres to remove it. no window adjustment is usually needed. As for buying one. The dealer is probably best bet. All used ones are going to be ripped like yours Darin:brow:
  3. This is an easy one. All you need is a 12mm socket, an extension and a ratchet. open your hood. Look at your accelerator cable and follow it to where it hooks onto your throttle body. Look straight down next to the throttle body. On the top of the block(under the intake manifold) you will see a black barrel with a 12mm bolt in the center of it. It will have 1 wire coming off of it. This is yourr knock sensor. remove the bolt, disconnect the sensor and repaeat in reverse order. You just saved $150.00 bucks. The SUBARU DR Darin
  4. Here is a silly question. Did you happen to find a green connector anywhere under the dash and reconnect it? This is the dealer ck connecotr and if it is connected it will make the light flash. there will be no codes because there are no problems. Ck under your ds dash and see if there is a green 2 pin connector with one wire in it. If it is connected, disconnect it and see if the light stays out. The Subaru DR Darin
  5. The other thing you may want to ck is to make sure the ground shielding of the wire has not poked into the sensor wire. If you have a shematic you can ck it at the ecu. I would go for the sensor first though. We have them go bad all the time. The Subaru DR Darin
  6. I have a used extension housing and solenoid if you are interested. $50.00 for everything. you do not need to remove the tranny to replace it, just remove the very back pice. LMK the Subaru DR Darin
  7. Well there are a couple of things you need to look at. there is a fuel tank pressure sensor on the gas tank, sometimes these go bad and tell the computer there is no fuel pressure when there is. the easiest way to ck is to see if the select monitor is reading pressure. This is where it is a little tricky. If the sensor is not reading pressure either the sensor is bad OR the tank has a leak. There is a special subaru tool that can be installed on the the tank where the cap goes. You block of all the the hoses and pressurize the tank to make sure it holds. If the tank holds presure and the sensor does not read, replace hte sensor. You are not out of the woods yet. If the sensor does read and the tank holds pressure, you need to look at the hoses or canister. These hose go from th tank to the canister and to the engine. the best way to ck these is with a smoke machine. you plug each line and blow smoke into it, you then ck for cracks in the lines. The main reason for this code is that the computer senses that for some reason it cannot hold pressure in your fuel tank. You need to find out why. There are some other things you can ck, but try these first . This code, unfortunately is a huge pain in the butt to diagnose because of the amount of hoses, solenoids and components that can affect it. If you need more help LMK The SUBARU DR. Darin
  8. Subaru has a conditioner that they sell for the phase 2 2.5. we use it in the dohc engines too. It is supposed to help, not sure if it does a darn thing though. darin
  9. Did you try the ignition relay? It is under the dash next to the column. ck into it PS I have one if you need it! The Subaru DR Darin
