April 22, 200421 yr I'm looking for the phone number for Subaru of America 'technical support?' I have talked with them in the past and they were most helpful but, I can't find the number. I looked in FAQ and did a search for posts but found nothing:confused: Anyone got it handy? Thanks, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer, misbehaving 01 Forester, behaving
April 22, 200421 yr The main SOA number is 1-800-subauru3 The dealerships actually have another tech support number that isn't given to the public.. I use the guys at Subaru of Dallas to get info from that hotline for me
April 27, 200421 yr Author Subaru of America is WORTHLESS! After waiting 20 minutes on hold the wouldn't even try to look for a cross referenced part number. They just wanted all my personal information. After they got some of that (I won't gurantee the accuracy of the information I gave them) they simply said they couldn't reference the part number system. They didn't even ask for the part number! They are worthless! Thanks for nothing SOA!
April 27, 200421 yr Yep, that phone number is worthless Called them yesterday and they have absolutly no technical support on subaru. They only support sales, warrenties, L.L Bean appearl and other pointless crap that means nothing to ppl who own older Subarus. As noted by calebz the dealerships are left the burdon of technical support. Unfortnatly in my area we have no EXCLUSIVE Subaru dealership. They are all Nissan/Hayundai/Etc/Etc/Etc/Subaru. I tell them what year and they just basicly blow me off or tell me nothing is available. None of them have records or manuals back further then first gen Legacy Anyone have a dealership number with some tech and part departments more dedicated to COMPLETE Subaru support? Would be most appriciated!
April 27, 200421 yr might give these guys a try. i worked there about 5 years ago, and they used to have(not sure) a pretty good tech support team. buyers mazda-subaru is the dealership. (614) 792-2455
April 27, 200421 yr The guys at subaru of dallas are pretty good for tech/part number questions. I have thrown a few strange ones their way.. they have had the info for me usually same day, or at latest, the day after.. I'll dig up their number a little later.
April 27, 200421 yr I've had reasonable luck with Peninsula Subaru. Call them at 1-800-458-5808 and ask for the parts dept.
April 28, 200421 yr My local Subaru actually has a very experienced parts department, well at least 2 of the people do. Here's a link http://www.lithiasubaruoregoncity.com/index.cfm?action=parts
April 28, 200421 yr Author Don't get me wrong, my local Subaru Dealer has been good and the last time I called 1-800-Subaru they were helpful. This time they SUCKED and DIDN'T seem to care! The part I'm looking to replace is a Fuel Pump Control Unit 429547014. What I know about this is it's only good for an 82 with a carter webber and no part # supercedes this number in later years. Q. Is there a preceding part # that may work? No parts directly replaced this on later years, but did this part interchange/replace an earlier year? I realize I'm chasing a lost cause........but I've tried a 429547022----won't send power to the fuel pump:-\ . I now have a 429547102----sends power to the pump but no signal to the electric choke. Car runs with this but I have to mess with the choke everytime I start it:-\ . I just wish there were more old Subies in my neck of the woods. Glenn, 82, SubaruHummer 01, Forester
