  1. My 06 Legacy had four wheel alignment when shocks were replaced about 18 months ago. I plan to take it in for another alignment (not at the dealer) Does anyone have the revised specs to ensure they are using the updated spec?
  2. Not talking about ice, just road snow and good amount of rain as other cars zip past. The back end is just too easy to let loose. Car has been checked out for ball-joints and bushings with no issues found. As mentioned, have plenty of experience with quattros, 4-motions and land-rover variations of AWD with no issues. I can't believe this car acted this way when new.
  3. Have driven Audi Quattro's for 20+ years and brought my first Subaru (06 Legacy 2.5i) about four years ago with 50K on it just for a change. This lose backend issue occurs in snow/rain so car needs to be driven with great caution. Last year all four struts and rear wheel bearing were replaced followed by Continental PureContacts. This has helped somewhat but the car is no where as stable as my previous Audi Quattro's and VW 4Motion's (sorry for the comparison). I had hoped my first experience with a Subaru would be more positive but am lost for what else to do. I will try putting in the FWD fuse as suggested. I have always done majority of the mechanical/electrical repairs so not a newbie to car repair and wanted some more details of ShawnW suggestion of clutch pack replacement. Thanks.
