ericem replied to ericem's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVX
Hmm wow no suggestions? Anyway it was my ignition relay after I hit it started up right away. -
hey guys trying to figure out Whats wrong with my 94 legacy turbo. When its really cold car will not start only codes i have is purge solenoid. Doesnt seem to be spark tried hitting and touching wires and sensors from maf to igniter and cam to crank sensor. I hear a relay clicking and wondering if there related so any ideas ? Thanks.

Thanks! Yup definitely should have made the switch earlier, but the 3rd tranny was the best tranny, but the front differential seized! It was probably the best driving auto out of all my transmissions and the damn front diff seizes! Failures have arranged from lost of 1-4 randomly and getting no drive, with no working awd on atleast 2 trannies, and torque converter failure and of course the front differential seizing! Keep in mind each tranny except the seized differential(stock power) failed with td04 intercooled at 16psi tuned.

0w30

yes should work very well i run castrol 0w 30 in my 94 legacy turbo doesnt consume oil engine sounds very good. 0w doesnt mean its thinner just at lower temperatures stays the same. -
Thanks for all the advice. Got back from a trip and got to work on the car noticed the oil pan was dinged in quiete noticeably. Pulled it off looked at the shift linkage as suggested by gloyale and banged out he oil pan, cleaned the magnet and rest of pan then put it all back together. Tranny works! guess the pan was restricting flow through the strainer. How much damage could this have caused though? Reason I ask is when I accelerate or put it in D and R it is very delayed and even after it has caught D it still acts like I have a high stall torque converter. Shifts are slow and don't catch fast, and when it's locked up definitely doesn't hold nicely. Thinking this killed the pump in the transmission what do you guys think? I am thinking 5spd swap ASAP!!

i added probably 7l and it appeared fine now i didnt fill the torque converter is it possible there is a issue priming? Also the shift fork on the tranny was cracked so i swapped it from my tranny and i used the impact yet when i tightened it the for whipped over to the right not sure if that could have damaged anything debating pulling the pan.
-
another issue replaced the tranny and i know it worked in the last car it will not do anything in any gear selection goes into park and comes out but everything else does not engage poured in tranny fluid yet still nothing at all. Any ideas now with this ? Theres no weird sounds torque converter should be seated fine no strange noises really disappointed now.

Brought the car home. Definitely not the rear diff. I tried spinning each wheel one by one in neutral seems fine. Sometimes if I put it in D or R with the car in a certain position makes grinding sounds etc.. I am thinking broken tooth in the front diff as well, remember this is not torque bind I can still turn without it binding, but in a straight line or moving in general car is bucking. This is not another zomg eye has torx bind thread lol. Can a axle actually do this though? I am hoping it can!!!!!! Going to take a look tomorrow I have had a axle clicking for many many months now.

Hey guys, I have my car parked at my friends house trying to figure out wtf happened, but when the car is rolling it is binding, locking up, and bucking! Its reallly bad, it happened all of a sudden as well, I can't even tell if my awd still works because it is very scary when I accelerate! Its a 94 SS auto, quiete a few months ago replaced the tranny and the transfer case, however the awd is very delayed and possibly could have shocked it. Is it possible the transfer case broke like the gears etc?? I really need to get this fixed ASAP had a long road trip planned even bought new brakes and booked a alignment I can get the car towed thinking ill use a friends shop and take apart the transfer case I have a parts tranny I can get from a friend. Hoping it is just the transfer case. Any other suggestions or opinions to help get this resolved BEFORE friday night would be WELL appreciated!!

new legacy

allows you to start in 2nd gear so if you put manual switch on, and you put gear lever in 2nd it will take off from that gear for traction situations. If you need to shift out of park (solenoid died, or need to roll car without keys) push the button then you can shift out of park.
