Hi Fellow Subaru Owners,
I own a 2008 impreza RX - 2 litre standard, 4 sp auto hatch with 50,000 km - actually my wife's car and driven as though it belongs to God.
Recently, when the auto changes gear, there is a thump felt that actually shakes the car. When slowing down, the gear changes again provide some shift-shock but to a lesser degree.
The Subaru dealer's mechanic drove it and experienced it but his computer analysis shows no faults. Can anyone offer meaningful advice ? The next stage is evidently to take out the gearbox and ship it off to specialists to have it diagnosed and repaired. Quotes at this stage are rubbery but $2,000+ is being discussed. In a modern car with 50,000 gentle km????
Help!
Kind Regards
Thomas
