etc Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 2.2L auto, 146K miles Runs rough between 2-3 gears and throws a code. Going to do a normal tune up but what else might it be? I think codes will point me to the right direction. Would a generic OBD-II code scanner work on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86subaru Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 you could go to autozone and get the codes read free , i bought my code reader from ebay , and works great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOthis Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 i bought a cheap one from harbor freight on sale for $39.95 i believe...just enough to pull the code...it came with a book to say what the code was....good enough for now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 there's another thread on here about those code readers. i bought one of the ebay jobs for $30-ish bucks and it reads the actual code on the screen for you too. excellent use of 30 measly dollars.
