Well, too much rust for me, no jump seats, he does have two of the original wheels. Would go down to $4000, but I was thinking more like $2500. so no deal.

YEP, CO plate, without my shoulder surgery I could hit it with a rock, OK it's 2 miles away but you get the picture! I am not fond of the RARE moniker, but to each their own, I guess. They are fewer and lesser seen. Thanks, I'll report back tomorrow!

Looking at this tomorrow AM Been way out of the loop on older Subies? Had a BRAT in the late 90's, wheels look wrong? Will do at least a compression test. THOUGHTS?

Got this text from my daughter; After taking key out of car, Car still says keys in ignition and won't lock or turn the dome light off. Also when car is in park stick clicks and shifts in it's parked position I am guessing there is a sensor or switch in the ignition lock? So far, after several trys it has always worked and allowed the vehicle to be locked. Thoughts? Not sure what would make the shifter 'click'?

Looking at 2020/21 Accents, wondering what is the status of that CVT. Never been a fan of CVTs, but no other options, also do not see many posts about the Accent. Any major known problems with them? Thanks

Well it is done, battery side was worse. Definitely not fun working blind but, in the future it will be easier. If I have to do it again, it's not my car, just doing a favor. Thanks for all your input. Merry Christmas

So you DO NOT have to remove the bumper cover, some one sent me manual pages and that was needed?

Looking for instructions on replacing the 2010 Legacy Headlamp bulbs. Does not look like they made this easy, like in the past. Any tutorials out there?

The 2010 Legacy we just bought was supposedly in two accidents but there is absolutely zero indication of that. One of the accidents was minor the other one was supposedly moderate with airbag deployment but having done lots of body work and been working on cars for 40+ years I would beg to differ. I guess it's possible if it went to a triple five star Body Shop that is accustomed to doing work on vehicles that are ending up at Mecum Auto Auctions. But I don't think the reports are accurate.

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions, Pretty much the same as my old 99 2.2L. Finished the job yesterday, got the parts from Subaru Superstore in Chandler AZ. Total cost with shipping was $476.10, Belt, Tensioner, Pulleys, Thermostat, Water Pump and Gaskets. Locally would have been $682.54, they did send the wrong water pump so a $95.73 pump went up to $139.95, had to go get that locally in the Springs to complete the job. Someone had been in there before, the pump gasket was paper not metal like Subie uses and one of the clamps on the bypass hose was on the hose, just not over the nipple part coming off the pump, not sure if the T-Belt was done but it is now. New timing belt and pulleys, water pump, thermostat, hoses, coolant, fan belt, oil change, filters - she is good to go.

Looking at a 2010 Legecy, probably picking up Tuesday. Wondering if anyone has an account and can provide a CarFax as this is from a private party? VIN 4S3BMBC61A3240702 Thanks, Bill

Oh, would have thought every 70k. Still needs to done. Thanks for the link.

Thanks appreciate the info!

Looking for some information on a 2010 Legacy timing belt change. Looking at this vehicle for my daughter-in-law Saturday and just in case the sellers cannot show proof that the timing belt was changed (157k miles), should have been changed twice in my opinion. Looking for a complete list of parts that would be required. Also the best place to get genuine Subaru parts for the best price. I have ordered parts from Liberty Subaru in NJ always had great prices. Having only experience doing my 1999 2.2 L a few times, I'm sure there are some subtle differences between the 2.2 and the 2.5 and also the 12-year difference in models, but still a boxer. Definitely do not want to go cheap and not get Subaru parts, I did that once and cost me a pair of valve/head jobs when a pulley siezed. Also if anyone has the manual pages for the R&R, would greatly appreciate that. I only have 95, 99 and 99-04 manuals.

Like the title says, My 99 Impreza has been parked at work for 3+ weeks, working from home with work vehicle. Had the opportunity to go pick it up, co-worker REVERSED the jumper cables, blew the 80A fuse. Towed it home with AAA, charged the battery and jumped the fuse terminals, and the list is long. Will get an actual fuse tomorrow, but I do not expect any changes to the list. No Start, Cranks Over (no spark) Fuel (?) No Hazards (no turn signals with hazard button pushed, otherwise work) No Horn No Head or Running Lights (can hear relay clicking when switching between the two) No Power Windows No Power Door Locks No Radio Fan, Interior Light, Reverse, Turn Signals (see above), Wipers and Squirter all work All other in car and under dash fuses are good, do not know where to start? Is there a fusible link somewhere? Thoughts? Bill UPDATE, No response from my OBD2 code reader, computer might be fried but would that affect all the other systems?
