No...no noise when clutch depressed or released while sitting still. It's only when you add "load or torque/twist" during movement. And never a noise in the hot summer, only when the car is cold and only till it gets warmed up. It completely temp related. Maybe the mount is loose and as it heats up it expands tight enough to stop the noise? (I will check it again) Todd

Pretty sure.....it's tied to engine torque. Very noticeable in winter and right after you start moving cold. Nothing after warm up and nothing ever in Texas summer! Only winter. I drive low miles on this car. Squeaks when I let on and off the gas. Todd

Nice! I know my automatic wagon is my favorite! Make sure you tape WELL on that window rubber, before painting. It's hell if the paint starts to peel. Todd

Can I join???????? I'm originally from PA! I will soon be moving a Gen 1 up there for summer travels. Todd

How about the question of time between oil changes? What if you put 1000 miles a year on a car? (no short trips) Can you go 3 years between oil changes? ( I use Mob #1 exlusively) How long is synthetic good with VERY low mileage? Todd

Where's that BRAT at? Todd

Thanks Paul..... You beat me to it. Todd

My 5 speed manual FWD 1995 Impreza has this squeak, more so when cold. Comes from what appears to be the rubber trans mount. Is this common????? Has any one else experienced this? When I take torque loads on and off the trans, like when clutching, it makes this noise. It's not mechanical and the car only has 63k on it. Should I just replace the mount? Thanks much, Todd

You need a windshield from a 2 door coupe or a GF. HOWEVER, the BRAT, sedan, wagon glass may fit, but it would be a tad bit small in the top left and right hand corners. I think you could get by though. Todd

I have a pretty good selection of interior/exterior and mechanical parts. I don't have everthing, but usually someone on the board will have what you need. I have responded to your email on the stripes. Todd

You still have that wagon in AZ? What's yuor plan with that?

Wow... I found a pretty good deal on ebay. What do you think? I won't use the belt. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=8015553577&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT Todd

Who has the best deal on EJ series, (2.2) timing belt pulleys/idlers? To replace the entire set is PRICEY! Ideas? Prices? Where? Todd

Paul.......yes. The entire back brake assembly is the same. (Except if the owner has gall-stones, then the back brakes are VERY different and impossible to repair!) LOL!!!!inside joke Todd

NAPA online has them Try www.Autozone.com They were out, but may have got them in. Todd

Separate.

Sometimes you have to run a "thin" wire through the accel pump opening to clean it.

Man, I thought crime up your way would be non-existant!

I'm here! Just email me at subaru3@aol.com Todd

There site shows Kmart USA has/does it.

Hmm....Subaru would have invested extra to have different clutch packs for 0.4 liters? I wish I could find this out for sure without taking the trans apart. Todd

Will a AWD/automatic transmission from a 95 Impreza 1.8 fit..(without issue and as a replacement)....into a 95 AWD/automatic Impreza with a 2.2? Thanks! Todd
