  1. Just bought a 2017 Impreza 5 dr limited--2 weeks old! However, yesterday after I started the car the message "Telematics Communication in Progress" appeared on the screen. There was nothing I could do to get rid of it. Everything was frozen. Couldn't use GPS, play the radio or CD. I turned off the ignition and started the car again--nothing. The same message appeared on the screen. Quite annoyed that I had to drive home without the benefit of music. I had to run an errand and about 30 minutes later everything was OK. Does anyone know if this is a glitch that is going to keep happening?
  2. I have a 2002 Impreza, 80,000 miles. The problem occurs when I make right turns only and not all the time, mostly on sharp turns. The noise happens after I make the turn when the steering wheel is returning to normal position. The noise is a somewhat grinding noise but I also feel a vibration at the same time.
  3. I listened very carefully this am as there was no traffic in the street. The noise I hear from the outside by the engine sounds like a hissing noise. Sounds different on the inside. Of course it stopped when I got to the Subaru service. They're letting it sit for a while and will do another road test
  4. The noise is low pitch. The most recent work was about 2months ago. It was the regular maintenance work. No parking garage or alley nearby--was thinking about that.
  5. My 2002 impreza has approximately 75,000 miles. Today it started to make a noise when accelerating. I don't know how to describe this noise--it's not a knocking,ticking or rumbling noise, and I'm not sure what a whirring noise is--to me it sounded like a suction of a vacuum cleaner. When I pressed on the gas pedal the noise got louder--but here's the thing it would stop and come back, so it wasn't continually making the noise. In addition I thought I heard a very quiet noise when not accelerating, but not sure--couldn't pinpoint that in traffic. I'm bringing it in for repair on Friday but was wondering if anyone could suggest what might be the problem. I would like to be somewhat knowledgeable about this situation when I speak to the mechanic.
  6. I should have thought about bouncing the car up and down--good idea. I need to narrrow the problem down as the squeaking is not consistent. It is awfully loud however. Today I drove the car quite a bit as I had many errands to run--and you guessed it--not one squeak. However I am not optimistic. When it comes back, which I'm sure it will, I will try your suggestion. Don't want to do it on the weekend just in case I make it worse.
  7. Yesterday, for the first time, I heard a squeaking noise in the dash board. Nothing when I first started driving but as I continued it got louder and more frequent and only on uneven road surfaces. The noise seems to come from somewhere on the driver's side to the middle of the dash. I took it to the subaru mechanic--he drove and I sat in the front passenger seat. And nothing happened. He told me if it happens again to come back. So later in the afternoon I was back. This time I drove and he sat in the passenger seat. I happened only once and then nothing. 1. Can the weight on the passenger side cause some kind of shifting or is it just a coincidence? 2. what in the dash can cause a squeaking noise. 3. any thoughts on something else it might be? I have a 2002 2.5 TS impreza And I did empty the glove compartment and back seat and the noise was still occurring.
