  1. I friends sone has a 1991 Legacy wagon with power windows. Someone broke into his car through the drivers side rear door glass. He bought a replacement piece, I helped him install it, pretty easy actually (so it seemed) . After we got it in it's tracks, bolted it in, but it rolls up all out of whack, seems to far back to the rear of the door and the front rolls up way to high and the rear to low. I noticed when rolling the window all the way down the center of the door on the inside bulges out a little. We removed the felt pieces at the top that hold the glass against the weather strip at the top of the door. even loosed up the stops and tightend them trying to get it to roll up correctly. I cannot get the window to roll up right. I've tried everything I can see. I just can't figure out the adjustement or how to adjust it. I hope i've explained this well enough for someone to guide me on this glass replacement.

    HELP PLEASE

     

  2. I have a 1987 Gl Wagon 1.8 Turbo. It has an exhaust leak in the header pipe between the head and turbo. Any suggestion on where to have repaired for a decent price and good work? Would prefer not to use the chain stores. Anything around Renton or the Kent Auburn Valley or Covington, Issaquah, Maple Valley, or North Bend.

    By the way, I called the dealer and they wanted $500 for the part!

    Thanks

  3. On my EA82T, I HAD TO remover the timing cover. I can't imagine it taking any longer than "trying to slip out and in " the water pump. I pulled the alternator out and the A/C compressor back. The coolant tube O ring comes with the water pump. IMPORTANT: When I went to get my water pump they BOTH had mountings of the same way, I had to compare with my old one. I spent $36 on timing belts, $32 on the seal kit, (t-belt cover gaskets, cam seals, etc..) $42 on the water pump. I had NEVER worked on a Subaru before, but found it rather simple and WELL worth doing the additonal work and replacement of parts. I did it in one day, by myself. Just a NOTE: (my book did not indicate) but the cam timing mark on the passenger side goes up, the drivers side down).

    Sorry if I was wordy, I just did this job less than a week ago, glad I did it. Hope this helps

    :D
