  2. Hi all, Recently i got spoiler for my legacy, but with wrong color. I go to my local paintshop and ask them to paint it. But when I come back on the time it be ready but something go wrong. As the Deltron Acrylic come on the spoler the old paint did dissolve. The use primer paint and sand it after and on the edge the sanding go through the primer on to the old paint there it dissolve. It was like that the old paint did not hold on..... all advise will be very helpfull. Thanks
  3. Last Friday I put new radiator and that fix my heating prob. When the workshopman open the old radiator we see it was almost all clogged. Now my outback run fine.
  4. Hi all, yep Nipper i have change waterpump and belt tension, but it did not change. Next move is cloged radiator. today i drive about 400 mile and one every hill I have to turn on heating fan put it to max heat and max blow and that work out to keep the engine from overheating. But it was very hot inside the car, I have to open all the window to survive .....
  5. ok, nipper the car was sold to Iceland from USA and all warrenty lost. yes I belive it has some major work before i buy it. Few minuts ago I open the time belt cover and on the back side on time belt did not look good, and when I start the motor a strange noice come from the waterpump, so definitely something is wrong with the waterpump.
  6. the mileage is now 45.000 mile when i got it the mileage was 15.000 mile. Yes it is WAY too early..... but this is my problem today I have read almost all service manual to figure out what is broke or what is not working right.
  7. Nipper, cooling fans is allmost all the time on, it is more like the circulation of the cooling liquid is unsatisfactory, two things, lose traction on belt which drive the waterpump or to hevy to turn the waterpump. Some broken in the water pump..... if the waterpump lose traction on the belt maybe the Autamatic belt tension is broken. How about that Nipper
  8. Hi all, what can went wrong in the waterpump or is it maybe belt tension some is wrong. The upper hose is so hot i Can not hold on in for a few sec but the lower hose on the radiator is not as hot I can hold on it by my hand. If i put heat to full on HVAC SYSTEM and the fan on full temp stop rising.:-\
  9. Yep has change thermostad got OE, how is the best way to get airpocket out of the engine ? this is 2003 Outback. No it has full coolant but maybe some isolate inside. What will best way to flush the cooling system ?
  10. No work on cooling system or the engine for a long time, I just finish change thermostat, everything look ok but when I drive up the hill the temp gauge start rising....
  11. Hi all and thanks for all. Now i have heating problem, in normal driving everything look right but when a drive a long high-pitched hill the temp. gauge start rising, when it came to almost red zone I stop the car and wait for a 10 min then the temp gauge was in normal again. Next time i drive the this hill I put heater system on full blow and the heat control on full heat. this was helping to keep temp. gauge rising. There is are normal liquid level in cooling system, both fan is working. Next I like to do is change the thermostat. the car has been drive round 45 k Thanks
  12. Thanks all, i see it is not simple to increse the output of 2.5 engine. But the resistor to foul the ECU I will try it, but the do they have a turbo kit for the 2.5 engine, if so do sombody now how are selling it. How about to remove the cat and just make the pipe bigger
  13. Hi all, i got one question for you, how can i get more power from my 2.5 l engine. I take a trip on Google and find this.... is it ok The Subaru outback Adjustable Power Boost - A fully adjustable resistance unit enabling you to boost the power output of your Subaru outback. This dashboard / console mounted variable controller will allow you to adjust and increase the fuel flow into your Subaru outback engine. Suitable for all cars equipped with electronic fuel injection. Our Adjustable Power Boost fools your cars computer into thinking that your Subaru outback engine is sucking in air at a lower temperature, hence the timing is advanced. Timing advance helps produce more power by igniting the sparks sooner, providing more time for the fuel / air mixture to burn completely, increasing cylinder pressure, thus providing more power. thanks
  14. ok i see, thanks for this info. I will see what i do in this.
  15. I dont think it is bent or maybe it is. I have to mersurment it. Maybe the bolt that tighten the Crossmember to body is bent. I mesure from body hole to bolt end, the bolt end was 1.5 cm after on the right side and crossmember was it to.
  16. Hi all, when i buy my 2003 outback the front splas guard was missing. I go new one, but when I was put in on i discover at the rigth front wheel was 1.5 cm after that the left wheel was. So before i got this subaru something has happen, i think the right wheel has been hit hard for some way or another. I make a measurement on few point under the car, and find out that the crossmember was 1.5 cm after on the right side. My question is, how can i fix it ? is some type of passbolt use to keep it in place before you tighten the Crossmember to body? Hope you can help me. Thanks
  17. Hi all, but it is one thing, this tick come just from one cylinder. maybe i have another explicate of my problem. Last owner told my yesterday he had to change time-belt and two valve, because the engine has go over time and bend the valve on this cylinder. This probably has hurt the piston enough to make this tick .... if this is so critical. But how about to put some milliteck oil treatment in the oil......
  18. yep, I see the are just two things to do, live with it or change piston..... some body tell me that the piston clerans was to big.
  19. Hi all, thanks for all here, now i am figure out how i cat get the tick of death from my 2.5 2003 outback. This tick is just when the engine is warming up and after that it go. is this tick coming from the valve or is it coming from the piston.........
  20. Yes i have think about that and mybe this is my solution to get rib of the slap, I was in Reykjavik yesturday and I let one expert listen the motor, after the car was over night at his workshop, he told me this was piston slap, and i have to live whit it.
