ivans imports Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Well you know by now that ivans therys are always different I dobut it whould have hurt trans towing it like that as it whould have no line preshure to engage awd clutch and the car whould be tilted up on front filling the back of trans with fliud so no run dry. To be honest i think it can only do damge to standard cars towing them like thiss or runing auto cars not runnning not awding. Did anyone check the rearmost Ujoint ? and how long dose it take to go into gear cold first time in morning ? the longer the worse it is. a'm a bitt confused about the VDC trans the vdc one i pulled apart was exactly the same as regular outback one no diff i could see anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Lol well I have driven the car over a thousand miles now.I drive a lot.problem nit gotten worse.just got to be slow on take off and let off gas when shifts into second and don't go up a hill from dead stop.but car is for sale 2k if anyone interested.I live in brainerd MN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Car goes into gear right upon start up btw Mr ivans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans imports Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 They did have a droping resistor to make for slower takeoffs they did it to svx to somthing about reducing shock load on takeoff with six cly cars not shure how it worked but my bros svx is a slug if you try to romp on it cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgrimm Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 I'll try that.I decided to Jeep driving car until it don't move anymore. Now when it shudders the RPMs rise and it stops accelerating. So I just keep taking off slow. I gonna have line pressure test done though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 I really think its an axle once in awhile well most always now when I get above three thousand rpm in first gear I get a tink sound from passenger side front. Its a fast tink tink and it will stop for split second once in a while like it caught then it continues. Or could be front diff.hoping its axle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans imports Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Have you checked the ujoints yet do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 As far as I can tell they are good.I unplug the dropping resister and no more shudder/slip problem but car shifts into second at ten mph and won't go out if third with it unplugged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 Its weak line pressure. Put a dropping resistor from a 01 LL bean with 100 k on it and tranny goes back to slipping. So its either blown seal on inside of transmission or the pressure control regulator went. Anyone got a part number for it??? Subaru can't find it in their log.

CNY_Dave Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Pressure Control Solenoid Electrical (Duty Sol. A)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 That's the solenoid on inside of transmission right?? Its their just one?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans imports Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Have you changed the remote fillter in the ds wheel well is on a small braket hiden under fender gets overlooked alot and could cause line preshure drop only on the h6s they did that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 I have the tranny filter but for the life if me cannot find where it goes.what do I take out to see it in the fender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 It is under the battery I do beleive. Peel back the plastice fender liner and you should see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_Dave Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Under the batt, but under the metal under the batt. Once you get the clips/screws undone that connect the fender liner to just behind the fog light, it peels back as mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Yup thanks.got it out.have not driven it yet.fluid was super dark purple and only about a cup drained out. Is that normal?? Or should more have drained out?? And I had to pry it off with screw driver it was torque on so tight.have nitdriven it yet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 14, 2013 Author Share Posted August 14, 2013 Ok I drove it.it did nit really help. Ok from what I read their are multiple solenoid controlling pressure in the transmission.and the duty a solenoid is what controls pressure for first and first to second gear. So its plugged cooler or the solenoid or blown seal. Ugh.anyone want it??? Two grand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans imports Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 shure drive it up i will give you 2000$ mind you cost you that to get it here i worked on one yesterday I realy liked it had 304000kms on it I had done trans at 275000 kms had eaten up the plaentarys used trans and good to go that trans was jamed and whould not move at all. Before you get to frustrated take it to a trans shop that can plug scaner into it they can watch the preshures and shift points on scaner while they drive this can at least tell you if its preshure problem or mecanical problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 So I ripped apart the dropping resistor that I took out of my car.all UT is is Four wires encased in cement. Unexpectedly the two white wires connect and the two black ones connect.so in morning I gonna wire them to by pass the resistor and my car should go in overdrive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrimm Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Yup wired the two white wires together and the two black wires together on the resistor and car shifts perfect and goes into overdrive now. Just goes into gear firmly cause of now high line pressure but its not even that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans imports Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Thats a good indacation that line preshure soiliniod is bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdrsubaru Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 i agree with nipper, your AWD unit is toasted... i do own a H6 and im having the beggining of torque bind... when accelerating i have a slight vibration on 1st and 2nd then 3rd and 4th is good... you'll need the AWD unit serviced ie all new clutches, sol c and must must must check the gears if they are eaten up you'll have to do it as well... DONT EVER TOW A SUBARU LIKE THAT AGAIN UNLESS IT IS ON A FLAT BED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
