haha whats a "sunaru"

yeah, not looking for a lift kit, but the complete suspension replacement.. strut,spring,mount, etc...

does a strut spring kit exist for the 94 legacy l??? ive looked over and over, search many a forum, but always come up with both strut and spring being seperate and never together.. i just wanna not kill myself with a spring compressor lol -ali

i think the cold might have gotten to my car.... for no reason one morning, after shutting my door, the peice on the door part, which meets the corner of the window and the side mirror fell off. after looking the three holes which secure in the window cracked and casued the foam and the black interior part to break off. i would just glue it back on but i occasionaly remove my door and glueing would not allow for easy removal. i looked at first subaru parts for "sailfin" but it didnt bring up anything.. anyone know where i can get one of these, and maybe the offical word for the item?? thanks ali

does 94 legacy use OBD II??? i might purchase

i first posted in the off topic section, but after submitting my post didnt show up... i just figured to go to the new-gen section.. sorry

i am looking to buy this svx in my area... sounds a little to good to be true.. only 73k on the odo, and only 2 owners.. i went to carfax just to see how many records show up and boom, 12 files... the VIN is JF1CX3237RK101206... could anyone who has a current account help a poor college student out lol btw, they are asking for 5800.... looks like perfect condition, here is the link please any thoughts on this ??? thanks ali

good to hear that the cause is what i had presumed.. ill check ground and whats the deal with that filter thing you were talking about??

I am having this issue with anything that gets plugged into my cig lighter for power, my laptop or ipod when plugged in and playing either on the laptops on speakers or from the ipod to my stereo creates a loud and annoying hum or poping sound. i noticed that with my ipod, when i accelerate on the gas the sound in turn accelerates and makes a sound that i can only describe as a "turbo winding up"... my thoughts... would i be wrong to assume this is a grounding issue? any input would be appreciated -ali

i got some pics that some of you might be interested in seeing... not sure what my opinion is... but i guess i like innovation dont forget to notice the female driver in one of the pics, she looks like she is having fun... (want to marry lol)

no matter how long i hold the switch it doesnt move from the parked position, it just seems like it is struggling. and when i do the normal move like you mentioned, the first intermit. works fine along with the rest. so its a switch that has to be replaced??? looks like another thing that has to be replaced....

sorry man, the vids been posted before somewhere but still a good video... makes me wish i had an sti or even better a b4 tt

hey guys, been a long time between posts but school, work, etc etc the problem i have that just happened is the "pull function" on the windshield handle does not work. before this happened the few times i used it would cause the wipers to move an inch or so, then stop, now nothing happens when i use it unless i put the wipers into the auto modes. does anyone have a guess??

i think it was something to do with the emission controls in the US were much stricker on the cars then in other places.. such as down under and europe...???

noted....

would either of those work on a 94???

looks like not much help in this direction.. oh well took the car to a mechanic... got new axle in for 100, and then from the damage trying to remove the old one the threads on the front end tie rod got damaged (80 includng labor) got my car back today, no clicking, etc etc but on some inclined right turns a loud thump, as if something is trying to settle is heard. any ideas on what this could be? going to call the shop later and let them know.

just to update, we tried to take the old axle out, it was fairly easy considering it was broken into 2 peices. the hardest part was removing the old spring pin from the axle. now the new problem, the car is stuck without the new axle. according to the haynes manual there is no need to remove the rotor, caliper, etc etc in order to get the new axle back in. this is were the problem is, me and my friends could not put the new axle in because of clearance issues. we tried putting both ends in first, but the other end was just shy of being placed correctly. is it just us or should putting the new axle be a little easier. if i cant figure it out its off to a shop and paying $$ that i wanted to save doin it myself. (low budget) thanks for any help

just thinking about a seat swap... but looking on ebay (first thought) the price per pair is 150 average and then the magic shipping price is the same thing@@@!!!! any where else you think i could get this?? thanks

when reading the details of the seafoam on their website, it lists point after point of what it cleans. http://www.seafoamsales.com/motorTuneUpTechGas.htm i think i might give it a try, after all its only 4 bucks??

UPDATE just got back from trying to get the old axle off... with all the right tools except for a 3/16 punch we got stuck at the pin connecting the old axle to the body. i will post pics of the old axle, or whats left of it, never seen one that bad before. and the best part, we have a size 27 (i think) torq screwdriver stuck on the top side of the axle pin. we are going to try to finish it up tomorrow with a decent punch. the torq 27 is stuck in there really good and we couldnt get it out so any ideas would be greatful. -=-=-Needs advice-=-=-

Smpol19, thanks for the offer, i coulda used someone in the area with some subie knowledge. hard being in a area without knowing decent mechanics, etc... tonight me and a friend are going to the lot were the car is, pushing it into a lit parking garage and having at it. i was looking around the forum for the tools needed for the axle change, pretty much the list is as follow from what i gathered (haynes is at home ) jack pry bar 3/4 inch drive socket? 36mm axle nut socket? 3/16" pin punch hammer i would greatly appreciate anyone listing a tool i missed. or clearifying the 3/4 or 36mm socket?? thanks for the help

www.tirerack.com has some decent prices and good deals on everything from pads, rotors, and lots of other items. and ive purchased from www.partsamerica.com as well

hey board, thought i would share some info for those who wander over to the search, type in drive axle and see how and what can happen if you wait to long. well almost 6 years later, nursing a torn boot, bad axle combination the day finally happened. pulling out of the post office the usual sound (like going up a wooden rollercoaster first hill) was very loud and then the final crack and moan came out. long story short the car is un driveable, and now sitting in the post office lot waiting for the the new axles (sittin in the backseat from CV) to be put in. to make the story better, im at my university 3 hours away from my house and i have to find a way to get this done on my budget. dealers up here in the dc area ask for 220 a side labor. guess the only good thing is that this was something expected, and i was going to drive home tomorrow to change it out but i was a day too short. moral of the story, dont wait for this to happen before you fix your axles ali

anyone have any comments on the bosch filters?? i get them from autozone for pretty good just havent heard anyone say much about this german?? companies products ali
