[Vibration problem]

still haven't figure out the problem yet.. but the vibration is getting worst... anyone else agreed with the tension trick?

 

ooh ok.. hmm.. so when you said its "common" does the RPM that I reported (around 2XXX - 3XXX) sounds right?

Anyway to get more horses without blowing the tranny?

Make sure the crank pulley is tight. It should be 120 foot pounds, not 80 like most manuals say. this will cause vibration and is very common.

Thanks for the reply. I think the engine mount may be the one at fault, but then shouldn't that cause a vibration regardless of the RPM?

 

I think i will bring it back to another dealership to see whats wrong with it.

 

Thanks

nobody? I am sure many of you guys have this engine/car... can someone just let me know if this was seen on their car?

 

Got a 99 Legacy GT with the 2.5 engine. The engine vibtates when rev to between 1800-3100 RPM.. The mechanic at Subaru said its normal and its a common problem with these 2.5 engines... he said it has something to do with the EGR valve.. is this true? can this be fixed?

Hmm.. nice.. BTW the car is AUTO

 

Hmm, I have a question, the dealership said that its normal for the engine to vibrate a bit between 2500 and 3000 RPM, it was due to a problem with the EGR valve.. is this true?

 

I still have some warranty left of the extended warranty, if this vibration is something that can be fix, I will want it fix.

Thanks, and what is the specification of this engine? can someone suggest some mods for the 99 Legacy Outback?

Does anyone have a list of engine used in the subarus? Or just tell me the engine code of my 99 Legacy (2.5 litre)

 

Thanks!

[Turbo charging a 99 Legacy?]

Hi all,

 

I am new to this site, but not new to a automotive base forum. My question is this, I have a 99 Subaru Legacy (Outback, I am confused with this Outback brand, some suggest that its a term used for the Legacy only, some said it means wagon, while I saw plenty of Impreza wagon with Outback branded), unfotunately, I am having that problem of engine vibrating at 2500 rpm, anyways, my real question is, has anyone ever try putting a turbo charger in these 2.5 engine? Does such thing exist? Is there a kit that can be purchase?
