Hi all 2004 subaru legacy 35th anniversary edition with every bell and whistle available! So I just had my 30k service done and very pleased with my mechanic he is a subaru specialist and he has a great reputation and is so honest and we were talking about subaru's and it's pretty bad how I only have 30,100 on it and it knocks so bad man I did take it to a local dealer and they said oh its noraml and I say hell no man this one sounds awful it raps so bad so my next plan is to see subaru of america about this issue. I happen to know the subaru rep for my area and I think once he hears it he with authorize work to be done. I have had over 10 subarus and none of them sounded this bad I have had 97's and 99's they knocked but it did go away but this one is the pit of them all.

Hi,

 

Wringing my hands over a possible rod knock problem (read: death knoll for my 96 OBW EJ25)... had this passed on to me.... (Thanks johnceggleston!) , really usefull tutorial on how to listen to your engine and figure out what happening..
