  1. Its was a ebay sale from. https://www.ebay.com/str/mazdaphilsrotaryproductsrubber On this link they have the whole glass with the seal. It would probably be pricey to ship.https://www.autoglasswarehouse.com.au/subaru-leone-10-79-to-7-84-4dr-wagon-rear-windscre
  2. I purchased for my front windshield on Australia website. https://www.autoglasswarehouse.com.au/subaru-leone-10-1979-to-7-1984-and-brumby-1-1982-t For rear wagon hatch glass I got lucky and found it on Ebay Australia.
  3. Update! I discovered that the transmission modulator vacuum hose had transmission fluid in it, indicating that the diaphragm is likely failing—since there shouldn’t be any fluid in the hose at all. Fortunately, my local O'Reilly Auto Parts store had one in stock, so I swapped it out. Now, the transmission shifts through all three gears properly. However, I’ve noticed a new issue: if I come to a complete stop and then try to proceed, first gear doesn’t engage. The only way to get it to engage is by shifting to Neutral ("N") and then back to Drive ("D").
  4. I know swapping it is the ideal route, and I’ve got the whole parts wagon ready. But I think there’s still a bit more life left in this 3AT. It’s not grinding or making any weird noises. I pull out the good old service manual and run some tests this weekend.
  5. Well, I think the inevitable has happened to the 3AT in my wagon. I took a 100-mile Memorial Day road trip from LA to Oxnard down Pacific Coast Highway, and it ran great as usual. I parked it while we ate at a restaurant, but as soon as I started driving back, it began slipping in first gear. The fluid level is good and doesn’t smell burnt. I was able to manually engage first gear by shifting into first and then back into drive. Where should I start troubleshooting? Transmission vacuum modulator Band adjustment I want to go through some diagnostics and see if it’s something simple. Or is it time to bite the bullet and swap in a 5-speed manual with dual range? The car has 111,000 miles on the odometer—14,000 of those were driven lifted with 27" tires
  6. Great work! I’ve been dreading changing the intake gaskets on my EA81T, mainly because I suspect that’s where air is escaping into my coolant passages. But it’s great to see this write-up—definitely helps me prepare for any issues I might run into.
  7. They do move up and down but they do not come off. I just had my wife sew on the head rest cover and seat cover.
  8. Reviving this post cause my wagon is starting with the same issue. Has anyone come up with a solution or the cause? Currently, I unplug the and plug the wire harness to get the ECU to work. Then when it sits for a while like the next day. The wagon won't start until unplugged and plug the harness to the ECU.
  9. So my 84 wagon turbo is foaming up the radiator and running hotter. I'm 80 percent that its head gaskets compression leaking into the cooling system. What is the best head gasket that has been used with good results? I've seen MLs (MULTI LAYER STEEL) head gaskets for newer subaru's but not for the old gens. Or should I just go with the Felpro permatorque head gasket?
  10. Installed nee seat covers. I wasn't able to remove the head rest. So I had to slice a hole onto the seat covers and had my gf sew them back together.
  11. I blew my left front strut on my GL wagon by hitting a huge pot hole in Utah, and we all know its impossible to none in finding the front struts. Who has has used a alternative strut or suspension set up on there GL wagons?
  12. Calipers are out of stock. Thats on every online autoparts site.
  13. Yes I've look at Rock Auto and does not have boot. Only the caliper pistón rebuild kit. The hunting begins on those rubber boots.
  14. Are the EA82 brake calipers compatible with the EA81 since I can't find any calipers online for my 84 wagon. I need the rubber boot those goes to the e-brake mechanism. Or maybe I should order the later calipers and exchange all the rubber parts to my wagon calipers.
  15. Is this adjustment for the NA or Turbo engine?
  16. Did you have to modify of the or shave any plastic to make them fit? I ask cause I had some printed also from a file online and did not fit correctly.
  17. Rock Auto. You have to pop out the rivots on the old lifters and modify the mounting bracket just a bit.
  18. Check you temperature switch. Unplug it and if motor stays on then you would have a bad sensor. I had that issue with my 84 wagon
  19. That would be great. Are you making your secondary electric fan run at a cooler temperature?
  20. My ea81 turbo wagon fan clutch is starting to fail. I try online and it seems like it never exist. I only find the electric fan. Also on my service manual it will not show the mechanical clutch fan. Anybody know of a compatible fan clutch or should I upgrade to a electric fan.
  21. My 1984 GL Turbo at subiefest2020. The only classic one that attended.
  22. I will get bad knock when its set at 15*. So set it at 11*+/-3 @800 rpm. Runs good but getting less mpg..
