Legacy777 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I think I've read the first document, but does look like some good reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bendecker Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'm waiting for the reading to include the words "now available in the US" A diesel outback or forester would be perfect for our family and I'm nursing along two very old Subarus, hoping the diesel is available before they croak. -Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davebugs Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 My DD is a diesel. I'm still amazed how major car companies can have "issues" with transmissions for Diesels due to the torque. The emissions part is no mystery, unreasonable reg's will do that. But I'm talking basic engineering stuff for the tranny's. My current diesel is just getting broken in at 200k. I'd love to have the option of replacing it with a proven diesel that is horizontally opposed and AWD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is from trying to keep thngs as light as possible for better throttle response. Also subaru has a very small space to put a clutch (and beefier)transmission into. Subaru is unique in its layout, where as other companies have some room to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 L O L ! My dyslexia kicked in when I read the title of this thread I thought why would you want a reading light on an oil burner? I'm waiting for the reading to include the words "now available in the US" X2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
