Automatic Drivetrain Problem?
chadwick replied to Kevinch's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXsounds like transfer clutches going sometimes is caused by mismatched tires some pepole don't know that. i work at a dealership and always tell pepole that when they want to change only one tire i always say no not good for the awd transfer clutches it is an expensive repair we just did them on a 96 outback they were really bad when you turn the car it vibrates and jitters sounds and feels awful so anyways good luck ithink if you go to a dealership you will find the answer
