I have the same mystery rattle. Only occurs during slow speed acceleration. I read somewhere that it is probably "piston slap" common on high mileage ej22's (mines at 198k). It's annoying and worrisome - at least for a paranoid freak like me. Wish there was someway to know for sure, as I rely on mine for daily driving.

...maybe how to fix?

Thanks. Considering that this was a New Old Stock unit...where do I go from here?

I picked up an unused replacement Panasonic cassette radio because the original wasn't illuminating. Everything lights up except for the quartz display. Anyone know what the culprit might be?

This was the only way that I could figure out how to get the photo onto my clipboard... What do you think? http://pin.it/d-Yfx74

Thanks fellas. I have the rear covers...just need to replace the grommet that the wires feed through, protect the terminal, and connect to the rear cover. I'll probably have to fab something, cuz the dealer wasn't even able to identify the part.

Howdy yall. Wondering if anyone might know what the availability is on the smaller rubber "boot" - the one that the wires run through, cover the socket, and connect to the rear cover? Or if anyone has a slick way of duplicating the function of that piece (please don't say duct tape, please) with another material or thingy...it'd be much appreciated. Thanks

Wtdash, Would you happen to know which relay? Subaru lists two different ones, and an illumination control unit...

Okie Dokie. Thanks.

Ah, the joys of getting a "new" 22 year old car. Don't laugh it's paid for. Plus,in my humble opinion,90's JDM's just can't be beat. Anywho, my right headlight went dim. My tech checked it out (the terminal had already been replaced), screwed with the connectors, and bam...bright again. Fast forward...next day, BAM...dull again. Any KNOWN fixes for this problem? And by the way, props to all of you on this for forum. You guys (and gals...maybe) are gold! Much Thanks.

Thanks, Fellas!

So, on the recommendation of a friend, I had this shop redo my headliner. Sunroof control worked flawlessly before the work was done, now... es no worked. Oh well, I live, I learn. No surprise, when I took it back he claimed that he didn't remove the switch or bezel (oh really, then how in the hell did you did you get godamm material underneath it!? Fucktard!). His trouble shooting method was to repeatedly push the button forward and back as if he'd just pulled a ten inch rail of biker crank. My question to ya'll is; how do I remove the bezel and switch, so that I can have a look at it myself. My specialty in auto care is limited to appearance restoration and maintenance (formerly known as detailing and car washing...we can get into that subject at another time if you'd like) and anything that requires no more than a socket set and screwdrivers. I'm iffy on interior trim...especially on older plastic trim parts. Any Advice? Thanks

Gotcha.

Thanks Gloyale. Please forgive my ignorance. I think that I'm clear in my understanding that "OB" is Outback, but I don't know what "OP" is. My car's a Legacy L wagon...so I'm a bit lost now.

Well shît. I'll have to think on it now. Thank you (seriously)
