@TKFlight i put 5-30 what its says on the manual but i know it was regular motor oil it wasn't synthetic motor oil somebody told me that i could be the lifters that need charging and that there is some oil i can buy for that not quit sure if its true or not

you mean to add tranny fluid to the engine i will try to post a video up of the sound that is making see if you guys can help me out thanks

Hello guys i have a 05 forester which recently i change the motor on. In the time i have the car it has started to make knocking noise which i think pretty sure comes from the torque converter i am not sure if the rocker arms can make that noise keep in mind that the head where machine shop, but it does the noise when ever i rev the engine or whenever i have the car in reverse of neutral/ stationary at a light. The car runs great shift fine and has no driving problems any idea on what it could be ?? Any suggestions will be gladly appreciated

ok so the i changed the motor recently and the torque converter fell offf while removing the engine is was put back together but i am not sure if the person put it in the right way,, i know definitely that is not rod or bad valve because i did i sound check and it come directly form the torque converter so that's why i wasn't sure some times when i stop at a light it feels like the car wants to shut off but it doesn't like the rpms fall under they suppose to be but it levels out again

hello guys i have a 05 Forester and recently my torque converter is making this weird sound like metal knocking around in the converter, the forester runs finds but the noise is annoying and i was just wondering what could be causing the noise in the Torque converter also it started doing it on park and now it does it on park , Reverse and even on Drive soo i am pretty sure is getting worse everytime i drive it

alright guys a lot of people are saying to buy Impreza complete struts assembly Where can I buy a set of those and how much lowered can I get from those struts not looking to lower the fozzy too much just so she has a stance

hello guys I am trying to lower my 05 Forester X I am currently on a budget and cannot afford 1000 dollars coil overs , I was currently looking into buying Tein springs which are not expensive any suggestion on springs or coil overs that are good an wont brake the bank

okay Imdew thanks a lot , I guess the decision has been. Staying with the forester maybe later on when I get some more cash I'll buy a new WRX

ok guys so I found more information on the car here is the list : Drivetrain is stock suspension BC coilovers perrin rear sway bar legacy gt rear brake conversion upgraded bushings CNT downpipe, greddy exhaust, koyo alum radiator tune OTS XTP stage 2 flash timing belt done 113,000 mile ago 2 owner doesn't know if water pump and head gasket has been change he told me he has not changed it himself so its unkown since he bought it about 113000 miles ago are the opinions still the same after this added information ??

Thanks guys for the suggestion, I appreciated a lot

Thanks guys I appreciated your opinion I just wasn't sure if it was a good idea, because a lot of people that I have ask they don't own Subaru and tell me to trade it because you know is a WRX , but if what you guys are telling me is true, then I will think it twice before doing, the trade . I appreciate the opinions

Hello everybody , I am planning to trade my 05 Forester for a 04 Impreza WRX and wanted to know if its a good deal 05 Forester specs: New motor with 70,000 miles The body has 211,000 paint is good and interior is perfect tires are brand new has a/c kenwood stereo brand new Ujoints shifts good It has one bad O2 sensor everything stock 04 Impreza wrx specs: 171,xxx miles on the car turbo manual 5 speed, don't know if transmission is good good paint XTP stage 2, down pipe exhaust coilovers blacked wrapped in matte white vinyl No good tires Any suggestion whether I should make the trade or not

how do i find out if the driveshaft is bad are they any signs that i should be looking for while i look at it

I feel it more in front of my seats not under . when you feel it feels like the whole front end is shaking . The steering wheel doesn't shake by the way only the front end of the car , and like I said its only when I am accelerating from 50-55 and 65-70 , when I let the pedal off its stops shaking but when I press the pedal again at those specific speed it will start all over again

ok thank you Ill check that thanks for the help

how would I know if the CV shaft is bad can I look at it and tell or its just a guessing game whether its bad or not ???

The code it's turning up Upper Bank 02 Sensor so I don't think that will cause the shaking of my car

how hard are they to change and what is the price range to fix one if i do it my self ?? thank for the suggestion

Hey guys I still have my 05 Forester X 2.5L automatic and recently it started shaking when I reach speeds in between 51-55 and 65-70 if I let off on the accelerator between the speed it stops but as soon as I step on the gas it will start again and its only in-between those speed I haven't been able to figure it out Any ideas on what could it be oh and the check engine light is on. Thanks you for your opinions

Thanks for ur help i did see some bubbles on the container i will check my head gasket see if they are bad

Hello everybody My 03 forester has been having overheating problems i just bought a new radiator and installed it but still the car keeps overheating i took the thermostat out will that have any effect . Also my oil is good and no water is coming out of my tail pipe Any suggestions

My oil is good because i took the oil out and its not contaminated with water so i was thinking that my radiator is bad because it was running fine and my thermostat got bad and it overheated

Hello everybody Some of you might know me for the swap that i did on my forester Now recently i am having a problem with my radiator and water . i took the thermostat out because my car was overheating and recently its taking all the water from the bottle and radiator and drinking it all in a couple of minutes of driving i dont know why but i have to keep feeling it up every 30 to 40 minutes of driving i use coolant so i dont know why is this is happening . when i filled it back up i start the car and the water comes up the radiator throughout the filler and drips over, like something is clogged up .... the water pump is working so if you guys have any opinion it will be gladly appreciated Thank you all

Thanks you guy for helping I 'll post pick whenever I can
