:clap:Congratulations and continue to become familiar with this site. While you are busy spiffying up your new car, check out the gas filler tube next to the right rear tire. There is a "protective" shroud at the lowest point that actually traps road dirt which ultimately stays damp and is notorious for causing rust through. Rinse it out vigorously with a hose and you should be good to go.

Sorry, I didn't see that you weren't from "around here". The US bumper to bumper warranty is for 3 years/36,000 miles so if the warranties are comparable, your warranty would extend for about 58,000 kilometers. Does that help you?? As far as changing the fuse, can't hurt but likely not the culprit. I think your initial suspision of relay is closer to a cause.

Check the clutch on the 95 with 100K. Drive down the road, put it in fourth gear early and step on the gas to see if it is slips under load. It's a $7-800 repair at some point but again this is a good car if'n you like manuals (better gas mileage and the auto tranny is no longer a potential question mark). Shop hard.

Just kidding... as I tell my wife, "I heard you twice the first time".

But do you have an opinion?

3 year/36K warranty bumper to bumper (clock and radio fall somewhere between both bumpers).

True, the Lowoil "seeps" more than leaks but when that stuff sprays back on the exhaust, it's pretty stanky and a real nuisance.

Keep those posts coming in. Two more posts required for a complimentary smile from moderator of your choice:). Seriously though, I recently spoke directly with NGK for a question regarding using cooler than spec plug and they couldn't have been more gracious. Give them a shout if your local auto supply dealer can't tell you.

Buy the white one... white cars last longer;)

If the Loyale lives up to its reputation, there should be enough oil leaks to rent your services to reseal asphalt driveways. The engine is powerful enough but the seals leak and this one is old enough to be time worn.The Legacy wagon seems a better bet for room and vintage.

May be so, just checked and Auto Barn shows no replacement for rear wiper! That's a Subaru gotcha... At least try and get it from one of the on-line discount Subaru parts dealers when ordering other parts.

I guess you alrady checked auto supply stores? I know they have a book that cross references with Anco, Bosch wiper blades/arms etc.

...or a girl? Try to get one with low mileage and a warranty...

For my 2000 Legacy GT, I've had two sets of Dunlop Sport A2 with disappointing wear, also a bit noisy. I'm looking at Kumho Grand Touring All-Season for Northeast US driving. Tirerack has them for $65. Fair price for a fair tire?

Hate to be a pain but looks can be deceiving. Did you mean to say that you pulled the fuses and checked for continuity? If you didn't, do so now. Common things occur commonly.

Remove contents of wallet?

Timing belt is supposed to be good for 105K. Their advice seems suspect You can clean the throttle body yourself with spray cleaner. Engine "knock"? I have "pinging" with 87 octane in my 2000 Legacy GT in warmer weather under light load acceleration. OK in winter.

Did you remove the air filter components and/or windshield washer bottle (depending on side and model/year) for better access? If you are talking about the plug wires and they are regular plug wires, just grab the boot as close to the plug as possible, squeeze the boot, twist it, wiggle it left and right, up and down, cuss three or four times and give it a pull. If it separates from the plug connector, well you'll need to replace it but I don't know of any other magic.

Open window, open door, pinch the top of the plastic triangle slightly, drive around and pinch more if needed.

http://www.scoobymods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=182 The above is step by step and sequence for bleeding Subie brakes. Check the manual but I think there is fluid that is compatable with either.

Bleed the brakes.

From the school of tap it gently with the heel of your shoe...

If you invision the trangular shaped piece that the mirror is attached to, like a sail, pinch the top portion of the trangle. Remember the forces that initially distort this piece are from the window being man handled. Your objective is to reverse this action... sorry no picture yet.

I love the scientificological approach. Go Nippy!
