Is it hard to polish up the headlight lens so it "sees" through better? Mine is pretty dim. Also the radio antenna has been out, I'll search online for solutions.

Are these "Densos" any good? The printing says they're made in the US: https://www.amazon.com/Denso-IK20-Iridium-Power-Spark/dp/B000M6UR82/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8&th=1

Plug failure within a year caused me unending problems which caused me to change out everything else that I thought could be the cause of sputtering and misfiring. I didn't realize it could be the NGK plugs I put in. Forester is running as well as ever; I put on a couple Cooper tires yesterday that I got from the local junkyard for $50 on the rim each nicely mounted and balanced already.

I'd have to check my order, probably Amazon. I know Home Depot got in trouble as they played games with customers selling DeWalt and other name brand equipment that were either seconds or knock offs.

I put in the recommended NGK plugs a year and a half ago or so; already worn out after 25K miles or less. I kept the Denso Iridiums I had before and the misfiring and sputtering stopped. Forester is running well now.

Glad your fans finally kicked in; our unsung heroes to keep engines within acceptable temp. range. Of course there are short term fixes when the engine is getting too hot such as having the heater on full blast, anti-freezes and mixes with different properties, etc..

Of course, anything mechanical needs to be addressed, however "Lucas" transmission treatment is quite good. Check the fluid, etc.. I did a change and filter replacement last year.

I had the rest of it welded, cost $300 more. It was starting to sag.

It's burning, most likely the part of the engine that is hard to reach.

I spoke to him today: I checked it out, it just needs a radiator and condenser and some front trim parts. "my 2013 Impreza with 185,000 miles. Please let me know if you are interested or what next steps we need to do to see if you are interested. I'll probably start calling junkyards tomorrow but I wanted to check with you first. It doesn't hold fluids – – but after checking on the Internet and seeing testimonials – – I was able to drive it home 6 miles by coasting downhill whenever possible. I'll wait to hear from you." 2013 Impreza 185,000 miles. orinal airbags catalytic converter that passed CT Emissions remote start alloy wheels 4 good tires, donut spare clean interior except tear on edge of driver seat.

I will; he works as a school bus driver so does not have a lot of money to spend on a new car, and as others have said, you can repair the car so it passes all the inspections. If the front end, ie tie rod ends, cv joints etc are not damaged then I'm sure it will be ok. 15 years ago I was hit by another car and after repair it had to go through the inspection upstate.

My 2.5 with 273K miles has been burning oil, I was told upping the thickness would be good, so have been adding Mobil 1 15w-50, synthetic. Someone said that conventional oil may be preferable on high mileage cars. Another piece of advice was to use Rotella 20w 50. Anyone have an objective analysis on the right oil to use?

A friend had the same problem, thought his Subaru Impreza would not pass CT inspection after replacing radiator and compressor. I offered to buy it from him.

I'll second that great saying, a late friend was fond of saying.

I got the spacer online and drilled it out with a drill I picked up at Lowe's, a pita but helped. Thanks for the recommendation it should help others.
