  1. Got it solved. Took it back last night. Another mechanic took the speed sensor out and it had a groove cut into the side of it. So, he took it all apart and found that the dust plate at the back of the axle was bent by the first mechanic, and it was rubbing on the sensor. It also rubbed on the back of the hub and destroyed the magnetic ring. Needless to say, they are replacing everything again and I'll be good to go.

     

    Thank you for your thoughts everyone.

  2. I had a left rear bearing growling.  Took it to a shop and they replaced the hub assembly.  When they were done, my ABS light was on.  They replaced the hub again.  No change.  They ordered an ABS speed sensor and put it on.  Light was off.  All was good.  2 days later, my ABS light is on again.  Took it back to them, with the ABS light on all the way.  They got in the car to pull it into a service bay, and the light was off.  I drove home.  All was well.  This morning I got half way to work and the light comes on again.  What the heck????????  Anyone have a clue? Cuz the mechanics don't. 

  3. I have the same problem.  2007 Legacy....  Had it in the shop, and they had to replace the whole assembly (light switch arm and worthless switch on top of steering column), which is in the center of the steering wheel.  It worked great for 4 months and is now out again.  If I have the headlights turned off and the parking brake on, I have tail lights and front marker lights.  As soon as I release the parking brake I lose them all, including license plate light.  I'm wondering if there is a switch associated with the parking brake similar to the brake light switch under the dash.  Can't afford an auto electric shop, and certainly can't afford the dealer labor rates.  already $400 into it and frustrated!!!!!

  4. On my 2007 Legacy....  When I take off from a stop shifting from 1st to 2nd, and 2nd to 3rd, I have a surging symptom.  At first I thought maybe I had a vacuum leak somewhere, but don't know if vacuum plays a part in this transmission.  There is a fuse for the transmission control unit, so I figured maybe this control unit is something that could be failing, and something that can be replaced easily???  Not sure...  Any ideas?????
