Make sure that when you change the tranny fluid, you just don't change what you get out of the main pan. Its about half. It needs a flush, special equipment, and messy to do on your own. Or, do the change twice in a week or so, the poorman's way to do it. Think they take around 13 qts. Its a lot. For sure change the side external filter if it has one.
AM I doomed? Just got a 2.5 Impreza, has a little bit wobbly crank pulley/dampner. Tried to tighten but didn't get one micron of a turn. Any luck changing the pulley or...is the crank end bent and I"m doomed? Take off and retighten? Any help I'm very grateful for. dh.
