backwoodsboy Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 Watch the rear wheel bearings. Ah, yes.... they were just done as well.

Skip Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I am sure you have read that Legacy wheel bearing are now recco'd and a few have been replaced with the incorrect grease (shipping lube vs wheel bearing grease) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 You are most welcome John, all in all an exellent car. But it is what gave me "Subeitious" you are already infected so it's "snow worries mate" ;^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aircraft engineer Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 But you can go out in winter and feed it snow. If you don't feed an AWD Sub snow it feels unloved and gets upset. I have to go to the mountains to get to snow here (boo-hoo - rain is a lot easier to SHOVEL!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1997reduxe Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 oh that's nice! i always wanted one of those--the green one too! they're like a small suv without all the real estate to lug around. i am assuming it's the 2.5? do these all come with the 2.5? i guess you wouldn't like to suggest the price you got it for so i can know whether to start looking for one myself? congrats...
