the old radio i had the wiring harness to just color code the wires together and plug it into the stock radio plug. all i did was unhook the old radios harness and wire the new one into the adapter harness. the remote start has been in the car for near 3 years now its never done this and have it installed under the drivers side dash area. i do plan to unplug it for testing when i get a chance to but likely not today due to rain. trying to build a game plan of things to look into when the time comes. i did not cut any of the cars wiring to ad the remote star instead i went to a junk yard and cut the male and female plugs from the harnesses id have to wire into and wired it so i can unplug the remote start and plug it back in like factory so in the future i could just unplug the remote start and move it into another car plug and play style.

im not sure ill be looking into it today but im curious if anyone els has ever has this issue. swapped the radio out the other day i had a pioneer radio and swapped it for a better model pioneer radio. somehow in the process after i finished i noticed the doors locked but dident think anything of it other than i must have bumped the switch. next morning i remote start my car go out and its locked. wonder to myself why and then drive to work. stopped at he store and when i come back out and start the car the doors locked as soon as the key hit the crack position. somehow changing the radio has caused my door locks to lock when the key is in crank position. has anyone ever heard of this happening? for now ive pulled the door lock fuse its suposed to rain all day im planning to pull the radio back out to re check behind it. anyone have any ideas what could have happened?

my friend has a 2005 forester ive been working on. every 30 to 45 seconds when its warmed up theres what seems like single missfire then it goes back to normal idle. it only does it at idle and is not throwing a cel for it. what could be causing it? it may not be a missfire but thats what it sounds like. idle idle hickup/missfire sounding thing idle idle

is there some trick i dont know to getting the dam lines on the rack to seal? i noticed a small drip the other day coming from one of the 2 lines that cross over the rack from right to left side wish i never touched it now. tried to tighten it when i noticed it leak got worst changed the o-ring leak got even worst tried teflon tape leak slowed down but dident stop replaced o-ring again leak became a stream not a drip tried using a thick rubber washer intead of the o-ring still gushed out put an o-ring back in it and still streaming out. i cant stop this leak ive dumped at least 4 quarts of fluid in this dam car over the last week and been attempting to try repairs almost every night with no luck. i actually debated welding the dam line into the rack for a moment but figured that wouldent work well and talked myself out of it. is there any kinda way to force the dam thing to seal up?

basing my findings off this picture i found in a pdf about torque bind in the 05-09 subarus i believe the solenoid is bad even though it activates fwd.the voltages seem in spec everywhere except drive cornering 2-5mph where it stays around 2.2v but this is without giving it gas. when i start to give it gas the voltage does go down some. i dunno really.

so this is the solenoid setup the transmission has in it. and im suspecting the transfer clutch duty solenoid is the one i need to replace. are the other solenoids the same thing? could i swap 2 of them around to see if the issue moves with the solenoid to another part of the transmission? basically i want to find out if the solenoid is truely bad or not before tossing 100 bucks worth of solenoids in it. id like to swap 2 of them re assemble it and find out if it still binds or not.

the clutch pack and drums were the same and in good condition but the duty c solenoid was not in the tail like i was expecting it to be. im guessing its the setup where its in the valve body? does anyone know what solenoid id need to order for the transfer clutch? are the solenoids basically all the same? and yes i forgot. it is a 2005 forester xt

i have a 2001 outback and i have a 2000 impreza transmission in it. ever since i put the impreza transmission in it it shifts very slowly if i have to accelerate quickly. if i drive at a nice pace it shifts smooth and quickly like normal but if i have to step on it there is about a second or 2 delay between shifts the engagement of the gears are smooth just a long delay before doing so. any ideas what may be causing it? the transmission suposedly has about 100,000 miles on it. i have tried putting trans-x in it with no change.
