  1. 125 000 km on mine and just change oil, may I sugest You go somewhere else for repairs?
  2. Salty? We do use tons on winter .....could this just be some kind of residue left from last winter?
  3. only you can decide on your gas mileage, but for an awd and 3500lbs car I think the mileage is one of the best . Enjoy you sub, don't get used to that engine sound 3000 to 4000 rpm
  4. I agree, you should bring your idle speed to specs, and then your plug cables, spark plugs will tell you a lot about an engine!
  5. you're right! Mine lasted about a year, and they're not worth the primium price!
  6. Wright! Who said wagons are slow? But then again, what's the point? I just think subs are good all around. If we loved hondas or any other make, we wouldn't be here
  7. That's negative camber and personnaly it helps on handling! unless you have too much wear, I won't bother with it
  8. but sometimes I can see a puff under hard acceleration. greg 55 says! I agree with Uniberp! If it smokes on deceleration then it's more of valve related
  9. yes they are! I had the same brand on my 2003 legacy....and I had the same problem after 2 years. The dealer sold me NGK
  10. Mobil 1 is a full synthetic, Castrol Syntec is a synthetic blend. They are two entirely different oils and not comparable Sorry jack but you're wrong on these one. Castrol syntec is a full synthetic
  11. Last year I paid an average of $2.20 a gal. on my 8500 mile trip. I would love to do it again!
  12. His car may need higher octane! He as high mileage some carbon buildup on combustion c. thus the need for higher octane
  13. first why do you pay them 3000$ when they quote 1500$? And they cannot hold your car if you refuse to pay......well here is against the law holding a car!
  14. I'm looking for a second car. I saw 2 adds one is a94 wagon loyal low mileage 1.8 engine and manual shift. what do you think of 1.8 engine? and 2500$ is it to much? Or should I go with 94/95 model 2.2 engine? and how much should I expect to pay for? The latter one could be an auto. Thanks in advance for all your toughts
  15. I have a 03 wagon and the struts are stamped KYB. So I guess they are oem
