sub97

Hi all, I want to get back into the Subaru family and have been considering a 1999-2002 Impreza wagon. I want to get the 2.2L engine for the gas mileage. I remember there being some concerns with the phase II 2.5L head gaskets with my old 97 Legacy Outback. Any problems with the Impreza I should be aware of? Would it be unreasonable to expect 30-35 mpg with the 5 spd manual? Thanks

Hello everybody, I have a problem with my 97 Legacy Outback that's driving me crazy. About 4 months ago the power windows starting working only intermittently. Here is what I have figured out so far - when I first start the car (or just turn the key to accessory) none of the windows work and the LED does not come on on the panel - after warming the car up for 10-15 minutes the LED will light up but when I activate the window to go down, nothing happens except the LED blinks off (short?) - If I turn the heat up and the fan on, and the car gets good and warm, the windows work. I had the car in about 4 months ago to get the heating core changed. I believe the problem started around this time but can't be sure as the wheather was warm and the windows seemed to work OK. Could something have been connected wrong when they were assemblying the dash? Is there some kind of breaker circuit for the windows? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
