I'm Back
I try. I cant really work on cars anymore as i have a hard time working and I cant be far from Mom. My Dr and I discussed PT for me but we decided taking care of Mom, the house, and the dog are enough PT for me

Well my Mother is bed ridden now, and at one time I could barely walk.

Yes I was diagnosed with a neurological condition that is ever so freakin slowly getting better. Its Myasthenia Gravis. The Justy blew the CVT belt so now I have a CRX along with my outback.

Plastic Welding
Thats what I was thinking. Its the only rattle in the car but its also hard to find. I am watching ebay as I would just rather replace it as the crack is in a high stress area.

Plastic Welding
I still have my outback, but I also now have a CRX. The CRX is in great shape (Grandma car) but it has a big broken rear plastic panel in the driver side rear of the car which rattles. I know glue is worthless. Has anyone tried plastic welding these panels. (Subaru, Honda, Ford its all the same plastic)

Water pump failure--time frame?
nipper replied to ThosL's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXTiming belt wear is more internal then external. If they are worn enough to look bad you dodged a bullet Normally WP can go 1bout 130 more is well maintaned, but it makes more economic sense to do everything at once..

nipper replied to williamhenry's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXHave you checked the heat shields on the exhaust? Lets chase the simple things first. Does it get louder with speed? How old are the fluids?

Water pump failure--time frame?
nipper replied to ThosL's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXBetter question how old is the timing belt as they usually get replaced at the same time

Reversing electric fan on EA81. Bad idea?
They can be pushers or pullers, Just put it where there is clearance.

nipper replied to nipper's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXHes sent me pics of it, come down in price somewhat. Hrmm in the photos it looks clean, I just wonder how it sounds running and driving. So an honorable dealership?

2001 OBW noobie AT Temp Light
nipper replied to Rnaquin's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXYou may be one of the lucky few with a dying Duty C that hasnt done damage yet. Try not to drive it an replace the solenoid asap, otherwise youll be into it for a set of clutches too.

Bad clutch (slipping) or could it be master/slave/hydraulic related?
nipper replied to 211's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXSounds like its the clutch. If you plan on keeping the car for a while it may pay to invest in a new master/slave/hose for it too and be done with it.

Vibration at high 60 mph, brakes malfunctioning?
nipper replied to ThosL's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXReplace the front calipers as these problems dont just go away with PB Blaster. Also I bet you got some of it on the rotors and pads which is NOT good. Its cheap enough fix it right.
