maybe L is for lavender? -
throttle body clean?
-
I'd think the heads are trustworthy, but how long until another rod bearing fails????
-
yeah, likely would need a resistor 'network' or a small potentiometer connected to created a volatge 'tap'.....? but the ECU may be looking to actually detect a crossing as the sensor switches? live data from an elm327 device or similar might help with this.
-
live data could help here. I will say, a '99 could have a bad knock sensor. If this car has a MAF, it may be bad/intermittent.....
-
maybe cam sprocket timing off by a tooth? if there's oil leaking in one place, maybe there's also oil leaking on the spark plugs?
-
you could look at car-part.com
-
NTN is what you want to see. wish we had access to NTN axles, or at least inner and outer joints, without going thru a dealer.
-
an 05 could have bad wires in the 'gaiter' between the hatch and the body.
-
rugosity and maybe tribology are related to 'surface finish' and in some applications are very important.
-
yep ^^^^^^^^
-
auto or 5spd?
-
GD just give us the truth. "Truth needs no defense,it is a Lion, just release it and it can defend itself"
-
not sure it's been mentioned, but a sneak path for fuel can be the fuel pressure regulator, pull the vacuum line and see if it's wet with fuel.

check here; https://www.subaruoutback.org/forums/subaruonlineparts-com.121/ dunno about Canadian shipping, but they have offered a 'member discount' over there on occasion.

I used to have a Honda Civic that wore 12" tires. Tire shops used to advertise cheap prices and the fine print would say for 12" . I'd go in and say "Hook me up with 4 of those bad boys". Then comes the" Uh, we;;,uh,we,will have to order them."
-
huh, seems like if this hole were small enough (pics?) it itself could be blocked by a little sludge or debris in the crankcase. I also wonder if it makes this engine more reliant on thinner viscosity oils?
-
brief search found these, maybe one will help?
-
I read once long ago of a guy that left the nut on but loose, put the wheel back on, fired-up the car and jooked it back and forth, full acceleration and full braking. Managed to bust it loose.
-
dunno about a file, but I have cleaned many electrical contacts and edge connector tabs with a rubber pencil eraser.
-
maybe some electrical contact cleaner sprayed into the switch would help?
-
try to posting at www.subaruoutback.org as well.
-
if you're having problems with a dealership, you may need to contact SOA to arrange meeting with a regional representative.
-
that^^^^^ must be same final drive ratio and, same size/model tires all 4 corners, did tires change with the work done? also, 5 spds viscous ctr diffs usually fail such that, stone cold they are OK, but bind when warm.
