I'll do that search as suggested & post up the code when I get it. Mileage is 110K. Thanks for going easy on a Jeep girl & hubby who have more practice at suspension lifts and big tires, than subby's & emissions!!

I will get the code and post it here. Thanks for the reply!! Is the O2 sensor easy enought to replace? No other codes come up except for the bad O2. No pattern to when it doesn't start - sometimes it's in the morning (sat over night), sometimes at the end of an 8/10 hr idle period (work day) sometimes just after fueling up and trying to start her back up again to get on my way again. It doesn't crank or anything. You can turn the key all the way over and the dash lights come on. I know the Crankshaft and Camshaft sensors were replaced last time I had it at the dealer. That seemed to solve the problem for a few months but it has since come back. Time before the dealer replaced the battery and that didn't help. I had them check the fuel pump too and they said that was fine. Got the usual "if it doesn't do it while we have it, we can't diagnose it."

Hi all! First time post for me. I brought my 1999 (1999 and a half to be exact) Impreza in to the dealer for a couple things. Check Engine light + random/unpredicatable no start problems. 1. Check engine = new cat. converter needed. Dealer wants $1100 to change it - can I do this myself?? I'm not too mechanically inclined, but if it's a bolt on, I'll give it a go! Any manufacturer recommendations? Will the 1999 1/2 year model (it uses some 2000 parts I know) make a difference? 2. Dealer can't identify the no start issue. They say they checked all alarm/battery/starter and find no problems. Every so often (cold or warm engine), she won't start up. Key turns over, but no clicks, or any sound of a turnover. Dash lights up, but it takes about 20 strokes of turning the key to the ignition position and back for her to start up. Happens maybe once every other week. Any hints on what to look for? Altho it's a 1999, it's new to me. Bought it off a friend and I've logged in over 50,000 miles on her in just a few years. Got over 110K now, and have had 0 problems (until these 2) until now. Love learning all about the world of Subaru.
