ViceMan Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I would like to thank Everyone who helped on my transmission questions and selflessly gave their time to answer my questions. A special shout out to two members in particular. 91Loyale for making the observation that the transmission was fine but that something else was wrong, like No ATF in the transmission and that there are indeed two dipsticks for the transmission for my car. And to GeneralDisorder Who despite being busy with his own projects came out to help me this afternoon to find the second dipstick but also put in the new thermostat and removed the air bubbles from my radiator system. Also told me how to drain the differential and put gear oil in. The one thing I learned from all this. I really love that little Subaru I have.

GeneralDisorder Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 It was no trouble at all. Glad I could get it fixed for you without spending a bunch of money and time on it. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 So it was the hidden dipstick? Nice when there's easy fixes like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Yeah - he had a bad modulator that burnt up all the ATF. Thermostat was the overheating issue (cheap aftermarket one failed). GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 GD is an rump roast (read his title), we do not thank him for that, got it?!?!?!:lol: really hard to believe those high quality, robust aftermarket thermostats failed!??!!! HA HA!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I make it a point to do charity work once a decade just to remind myself what being an rump roast is all about. I really don't mind helping folk - it's just that a lot of the noobs around here don't listen to good advice. Can't say as I always listen either, but that's part of being an rump roast. You know what they say..... "Do unto others..... before they do unto you." GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
