  1. Ive pulled a 2.2 and a 2.5 engines before. Did the Head gasket and timing belt. But never with the 4 cams. The 2.5 i did was a 2001 model. is the 2.2 plug and play with the 2.5 transmission?
  2. Body looks good.. Havent seen frame,, and they didnt mention it. Car is 2 hrs from here.
  3. car has 127k miles Ad says does not run, needs timing belt. Selling it cheap. I can do head gaskets and timing belt/ water pump etc... They want 600 bucks. What should i expect . ? Would you just replace / get new heads and put em on? Is this worth it. Probably fix it and flip it. Im not sure what engine is in it.. 2.2 or 2.5
  4. wondering if the forester would fit, since same platform
  5. Friends subaru makes clunk noise over speed bump. Pulled wheel. Looked. All seems normal. But the driver side front lower control arm, rear bushing is fubar. Im looking on rock auto, but cant see a replacement. Is this subaru only part? Or am i looking in the wrong place? Thanks for any help. John Marietta OH
  6. Thanks for the replies guys.. I just assumed since its 12 yrs old , maybe the timing belt got brittle and broke due to age,,, despite the 95 k miles... I may be in the rust belt, but the pictures are clean,, like little old lady from Pittsburgh only drove it to church on sundays in the summer.
  7. I goofed up in original post ,, this thing is a 2008 https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/301165857686285/ https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/301165857686285/
  8. 2003 outback wagon, 2.5 AT. 95,000 miles has a broken timing belt. Guy wants 2k for it,, Its clean with new tires. I priced new heads at $670. And I can do the replacement work. Is this worth it? Or is this going to require tearing the lower half of the engine apart too?
  9. any idea what price would be to have engine fixed? I would do timing waterpump and head gaskets.
  10. I found this car for sale locally. - 2005 Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Limited Sedan 4D. It has 105k miles. Ad says the engine started to knock and he parked it shortly after that. Should I stay away from this? I have done head gaskets with engine removed in my other 2.5. Would it be a matter of just getting heads re done? Or is this entail cracking the lower engine? etc.?
  11. Thanks for your reply idosubaru. Idk what happened. It went away. But it was flashing steady. Scared me.
  12. Need a lil help. I'm on side of the road. At temp light is flashing steady. Should I continue my trip,? 45 more min.? Is there anything I can do to help thing? It's a 2000 outback wagon.
  13. Ok I think I found it,, on top of the intake , after the butterfly and air box.. on top of the square middle of the air intake (cast aluminum) I ordered a cheap one. I can let ya all know if it works out ok. Its quite a bit cheaper than most places.
  14. Thanks Texan. I have reset it and this is the second time the p0113 has come up. The p0442 is new.
  15. Hi guys , resurrecting this topic. 2000 outback wagon, 2.5 automatic. 123 k miles CEL is on, pulled codes , got a P0442, and a P0113 From reading, my understanding is 0442 means I have a leak in my Filler tube? P0113, I have an idle air temp sensor bad? The car seems to idle fine. I have noticed loss of power and my fuel mileage seems worse. Any input is appreciated. If you have seen this enough to know exactly what the problem is,, Just spell it out what I should do. Thank you!!
  16. I have heard very good things about this stuff https://www.walmart.com/ip/303-30320-Aerospace-UV-Protectant-for-Plastic-Vinyl-Rubber-and-more-128-fl-oz/45626478?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&adid=22222222227037595685&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=80431957009&wl4=pla-163774361821&wl5=1028333&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&wl12=45626478&wl13=&veh=sem&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIucvmjZD33QIVEL7ACh1QtAAkEAQYBCABEgKvKPD_BwE
  17. Bennie, Its that diff ,, that scares me. I can change a wheel bearing , I think I can change a u joint, And I know I can change a cv axle. But a differential is another animal. There is different noises. Ill try to take it for a ride and get an idea. But there is definitely a whine..
  18. 96 legacy wagon. 2.2, EAT. (the one is my picture) 215 k miles. I don't really need the car anymore.. but I hate letting it go. Engine is really good. Head gasket timing belt done, new brakes,, etc. So then I start getting noises. I cant tell where its all coming from,, front or back or both. Whines that increase with speed. and a vibration I can feel. Front bearings were done. Not the rear. Also I rebuilt my cv axles when I did the head,, but I think I got some grease that leaked out of the boots because of not knowing what I was doing with the wire clamps. So the rear has original bearings and cv axles. I was thinking maybe its the u joint that's staked in there. IDK. I kinda need a procedure to diagnose it all. Help is appreciated. (when im driving I cant be certain where all the noise is coming from.)
  19. repair shop got the bolt out without drilling, chased the threads, took it home and a few hours later all reassembled. (the hardest part was that steering rack boot.. ak;k ;kald&^^%%&* Took it to get aligned today. driving home 65 mph. Steering wheel still shaking. Starting to think its the tires. Drives super straight and doesn't pull.
  20. 2 pickle forks did the trick in about 4 minutes of effort and having buddy hold the knuckle straight . so relieved. Now off to the machine shop and hope they can drill this out.
  21. I feel like the fork is bottoming out, before it separates. I'm borrowing a second fork from a friend today and use 2 of em. If that don't work I'll do what mssmithmmx said. I got a couple bfh. Thanks so much for input guys. I second guess what I'm doing a lot.
