  1. Get the circuit schematic out. Load - antenna motor, Ground and Power. Was it happening before you changed the stereo? The connectors may be the same, but....
  2. Thanks. It's also solving the issue when I feather the gas pedal. I have a TPS, I'm going to change it. I hate throwing parts. Google AI: Subaru Loss of Power That Returns When Gas Pedal Is Feathered When a Subaru suddenly loses power and then recovers when you lightly press the gas pedal, it often points to an engine or fuel delivery issue that the ECU can detect and manage under certain conditions. Common causes and explanations: Fuel delivery or sensor issues: Even if the fuel pump and tank are new, problems with the fuel pressure regulator, injectors, or oxygen sensors can cause the ECU to limit power. If the pedal is feathered, the ECU may interpret it as a low-load condition and allow more fuel or throttle response Subaru Outback Forums+1. Oxygen sensor or exhaust system problems: A failing O2 sensor or a partially blocked catalytic converter can cause the ECU to enter a “limp” mode. Feathering the pedal can sometimes bypass or reduce the severity of the restriction, allowing partial power recovery Reddit. Vacuum or intake leaks: Unmetered air entering the intake can confuse the ECU’s load calculation, leading to sudden power loss. Feathering the pedal can temporarily mask the effect Reddit. Ignition system faults: Worn spark plugs, coil packs, or plug wires can cause misfires that the ECU compensates for by limiting power. Feathering the pedal may reduce the load enough for the ECU to allow more throttle Subaru Forester Owners Forum+1. Timing or mechanical issues: A timing belt jump, valve lift sensor fault, or internal engine problem can cause intermittent power loss. Feathering the pedal may allow the engine to run at a lower load where the fault is less critica
  3. Looks like they might be aftermarket headlights. There are variations between various years.
  4. Still have the random power loss. Seems to be more frequent. Still no CEL lights. I've found if I just select N, the engine revs just fine and I drop it back to D and keep on going. Crazy
  5. Doesn't make much sense. If possible, the next time it happens, disconnect the negativity battery cable, step on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Reconnect the battery cable and see if that helps.
  6. For the axle nut, a center punch works fine. Just drive it in a little. If you have a 6 point socket and large breaker bar you can just back it off. No damage to the threads. Best bet for the axle, would be to get a set of both and take the inner CV joint off and swap them. I believe the spline count is the same, but I could be wrong. A bit of time at the you pull and pay where you could investigate would be best.
  7. Load Ground Power. You need a good complete circuit. Since this started when you changed the battery cable, I'd back up to there!
  8. Got the Mail. Thanks, some interesting stickers. Hope the socket/bulb package provided a solution.
  9. A friend of mine is getting two codes on a 2012 Tribeca Tans codes P0710 and P0700. They will clear but come back in a month or so. Clunk and then the codes show up, otherwise drives fine. What do you think?
  10. A good selection of bulbs and sockets packed and ready to ship. I just need your name and address. I looked through the emails on my phone today and could not dig it up. I know you sent the info. Please resend to: Lmdew2@gmail.com
  11. 1+ on KYB. If you have time and search the yards, I've found almost new KYB struts for <$50 each. Complete, just unbolt and bolt the replacements on. Has to be your lucky day in the yards.
  12. Have to look for the cars that were hit hard. Then you know they were going down the road. Used Subaru, better than Aftermarket IMHO. Larry
