which subaru to drive .2.0?2.5?
lmdew replied to auto2's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVX96 2.2 is the better engine. The 95 should also have the same 2.2 unless it's an early 96 with auto trans. The 2.5 DOHC Head Gaskets fail often. 2.2 is much better and easier to work on. Don't take my word, pull a spark plug out of each engine. By the time your done you'll have your answer.

My new ride needs some love 94 legacy awd
lmdew replied to PA Grown's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXSubarus will idle high when cold 1200-1800 and the drop down to 800-500 or so. There are some difference in Auto or manual trans. Is the CEL on or have you checked it for codes even if the light is off. IAC controls idle speed.

ej22, blown head gasket?
lmdew replied to 14D's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIt does happen, and more likely if the engine has been overheated. Fix the coolant leak and make sure the system is properly filled and burped. If you are still loosing coolant you should see it in the exhaust or bubbles in the overflow.

2008 Outback trans Fluid
lmdew replied to gregB's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXDepends what you mean by Flush! Some shops do a power flush where fluid is cycled back and forth under pressure to break deposits loose. This is almost always a bad idea! Flush = change the fluid. Lot's of threads on this. Drain and fill 3 times with short drives or allow the trans to pump out the old fluid by disconnecting a trans cooler line. Good idea, keeping the fluid new.

2001 Forester Sun Roof Not Closing
lmdew replied to Susie's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXMost likely stuff in the track. You have to drop the headliner to get the sun shade back on the tracks. Time consuming but not too bad. Don't try pulling all the plastic trim when it's cold, they break more often.
