  1. Hi guys. I would like to aim headlights on my 2000 Legacy Outback. The horizontal adjustment found easily, but can’t find vertical alignment adjuster. Anybody knows where it is exactly? Also where is the seat heater fuse located? Thanks.
  2. Thank you guys. I returned that car and will probably look for some other then Subaru AWD vehicle. Thanks again.
  3. Thank you for your responce. Your answer makes sence. My undestanding is, even if fans did kick in too late the engine should of cooled down after they kicked in.
  4. Dealer just called back and said his mechanic spoke to his friend who is a mechanic at Subaru dealership. He recommended to replace the fan relay suggesting that they were kicking in too late. So they replaced the relay and the temperature censor. Dealer sais the car is running normally now, no overheating at all. Will go check tonight, will take it for a long drive on the toll way. What do you guys think?
  5. Hello grossgary. It seems to me, if the head gaskets were blown, than turning the heater on would not help at all, the engine would still overheat. I think that the fault is in the radiator, but maybe it is just a wishful thinking… I really like that car. I am going to the dealer tomorrow and if he refuses to do it himself, I plan to buy the block leakage test kit at my own expense and run the test myself. Any more pointers?
  6. I am sorry if I am doing it the wrong way. I am new to this forum and couldn’t find another way to post a question. I just bought a 2001 Outback with a 2.5 engine, it has 140,000 mi. Within about 3-5 miles on the highway it started overheating it got right up to the last line (never got into the red). Both fans are on. As I turned the heater all the way up it quickly cooled down. I went back to the dealer I bought it from and he replaced the thermostat with Subaru OEM part. This time I was able to go about 10 miles before it started overheating again, I did the same thing as before. Turned the heater on at full blast and it quickly cooled down to normal temp, and stayed there all the way back to dealer. There is no external leak of antifreeze anywhere. What do you guys think?
