Have you changed the trans fluid? Drain and fill 3 times with short drives in between or I pull the radiator trans coolant line and let the old fluid pump out. Many post on changing the fluid. Long post on fixing Delayed trans shifts. The TransX additive has been used by many. When my 2002 Impreza Outback trans was acting up, a change to Amsoil trans fluid helped significantly. Good visual inspection of the half shafts and drive shaft u joints. Drive in tight circles on dry pavement, is the dragging noticed?

A fellow in Nashville, TN had the same problem. I was going there for work. I took a SET Crank and Cam pulleys that he needed. Swapped them both over. Set the timing and had it going in under an hour. Fixed the valve cover gasket as well. The shop had pinched it and cut it. Leaked like crazy. Always happy to help a Subaru Owner out.

Sounds like normal operation to me.

If the starter is just ticking, not turning the engine over it has nothing to do with the coil. Make sure you check the grounds! Load Pro is a great tool. Check it out on you tube. I had one fellow with a 96 legacy, would not charge. After several used Alt, I finally got him to bring it over. The main ground wire bolt going to the engine bracket was not tight and was burnt an pitted. Replace the cable and bracket and he Loved his Subaru again.

Often I'll find KYB struts in the self server yards. Pull them yourself for$40 each and they are ready to install.

I've been using the Motive Products bleeder for years. It works great. Fill the bleeder with fluid. Hook it to your master cylinder and pump it up to about 8 psi. Hook a catch bottle to the bleeder and open the bleeder. Keep the bottle high. Watch for clean bubble free fluid coming out of the caliper. Close the bleeder. Move on to the next wheel.

PM if I can throw it in the mail to you for a fix. Thanks, Larry

Yes, 1st thing. I found this on the web: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9o8kWUYew4 Sure enough the unlock switch was completely off the circuit board. Fix or replace. I'll try to fix it first.

Found the fob lock button works, but the unlock button doesn't. Repair or replace the fob. If I can fix it I will.

Load Pro is a great tool to ensure the voltage in the circuit is correct. If the circuit is not loaded the meter will lie to you. Check out Load Pro on You Tube.

No one does a Kit that I know of. Have you changed the fluid? If you put the FWD fuse in do you get the light? You might run it in FWD for a bit and try it with the fuse and without numerous times to cycle the C-Duty.

I'll try it again in the morning. I did keep on turning the key on/off. 15 times or so. Thanks

I've tried several different programs from the web. None of them put the system in the program mode. This Forester does have the Security system on it. Here's the one that seems to be the correct sequence but again, the car is not going into the program mode, indicated by the beep. Sit in driver's seat and unlock all doors. Open and close the driver's doorTurn the ignition key from LOCK to ON position 10 times within 15 seconds. Be sure to stop at both lock and on. The horn will HONK once to indicate transmitter programming mode is activated. Leave key in LOCK position and don't remove it from ignition.You now have 45 seconds to complete the programming as below.Open and close driver's door again.Push either lock or unlock button on the remote you want to program. The horn will honk 2 times when successful.To continue and program other remotes at the same time: open and close the driver's door and push lock or unlock on the remote. The driver's door must be opened and closed between each remote you want to program.Done programming? remove the key from the ignition and the horn will honk 3 times. Thanks, Larry

I'm sure they press the bearing in and then bond the top and bottom half with the rubber/or whatever material it is.

Looks the same as your top picture.

Might be better off buying one that has not been crashed and needs an engine. It may be less work and costs effective.

Metal retainer on the bottom. Lots of grinding and then you'd have to weld a retainer back in to keep the bearing from coming out. Pulled an 07 Forester struts off yesterday and checked.

They all pretty much interchange. Some of the Seatbelt latches are different so you may have to swap the catch over from the old seat. You may have the wiring in your car for the heated seats. If not, the stock wiring runs all the way over to the passenger side, down the door and back to the middle. Forester seats sit about 1 1/2" higher. Most yards are NOT selling seats with airbags in them. So if you want a newer seat, cut all of the airbag electrical harness and labels off before you check out.

She's got the need for speed. Years ago, I put a nut on my brothers Moto Guzzi throttle cable so he only had limited throttle. After he missed a shift and bent valves.

GD thanks for the Link. 25 washers for $11 shipped. I've been reusing the stock ones for years, replacing with Subaru washers as needed. Always nice to have spares on hand.

I've had ignition switches fail with the same symptoms. If you have a spare switch, you can just plug it in under the dash at the connector and see if the new/used one works. If you do have to remove the old one, drill out the bolts and just use common hardware to go back in.

Amsoil and WIX filters.

POR 15 products are great! https://www.por15.com/POR-15-Top-Coat-DTM-Paint

What's driving the change?
