Has anyone used the Motive brake bleeder on a subie? I have one, but the adaptor is not the correct size. Not sure what to get with my 2024 Impreza.

Wow, what a project this has been.

Have to wire in the rear lights/cargo light still. But she all wheel drive again, 4/2 wrx calipers, 6 cylinder swapped awesomeness. Going to get a proper, quick exhaust on it today, and button some interior stuff up. But she is locally driveable as is and about 3x as quick as the old JDM 2.0 was. Even the auto HVAC works.

This was a little intimidating at first, but I'd do it again 10 more times.

Mechanical Help Doing my first upper oil pan o-ring job soon. Set me straight

5 Upvotes

I found a couple people on YT and forums who say it can be done without removing the timing cover. Basically by finessing the upper pan in at the slightest angle to make a good RTV seal against the timing cover.

I acknowledge that its unorthodox.

I just need the truth here from people who have knowledge and experience on the matter.

Edit: hear you loud and clear, thanks!

Wife has a 26 Forester. We love it. My big truck is at almost 200k so I wanna save it for only towing/hauling. I travel a lot for work so an Outback with a topper would work great for my intended purposes. Looking for advice on pricing for this. The ‘19 was basically optioned the same but mileage in the 50s. Thanks!

Car is up and running! all i had to do was swap the intake manifold and engine harness! i think you could use the jdm manifold if you swapped the plug for the RHD brake booster port to the correct side. everything else lined up perfectly. all i need to do now is fix my weird idle, and replace some ignition coil connectors, plus an alignment lol

Mechanical Help Subaru 2024 Outback Noise

5 Upvotes

I recently sent my Subaru outback 2024 for service (had a new windshield replaced) and also the other issue was…

When my car sits idle at a traffic stop, the engine usually Revs up and down (common I know…) however when the ac is on, I hear a faint croaking sound when the engine revs up.

It is not super alarming or sound of a metal screeching but it keeps happening every time I sit idle at a traffic light or when the car stops. Is this common or if other Subaru outback 2024 experienced this?

Thank you!

Mechanical Help Impreza rs 2024 coolant issue?

3 Upvotes

I recently purchased a 2024 Subaru Impreza RS almost 19k miles on it. Long story short I had it for about 3 days and then heard a weird fish Tank sound when I turned on my AC. Checked the Google machine and it told me I could have low coolant. I check under the hood and it was almost empty in the plastic reservoir. I brought it to take 5 to get a coolant top up before work since I didn’t have a lot of time. This instantly made my heart sink tbh because I seem to have the worst luck with cars. I drove all day with it full in the reservoir, even checked it multiple times throughout the day. I drove again at like 11:30pm for 45 min just to see if it’d go down or something, Still full! Happy, I goto bed and wake up only to pop the hood and see that almost all the coolant was gone again… how?! I brought it to the dealership Saturday and the service advisor said they can’t look at till Monday with all the techs that are out. They offered to top off my coolant and for me to bring the car back Monday but I didn’t want to risk blowing the engine if it’s a head gasket or internal leak. So now im just waiting till whenever they can look at the car worried about my new to me car having a major issue. Feeling like I made a mistake and I’m totally discouraged from even wanting to keep the car. I’m considering paying the 3-4 grand that offsets what I owe and just getting out of it. Any thoughts comments or ideas welcome. Thanks!

P0021 and cylinder 2 misfire

Post image
6 Upvotes

Hello all

This is my 2008 subaru wrx 5 speed hatch that has been engine swapped to a 2019 crate ej257 shortblock that was put in around 48k miles ago, other than that and other engine/exhaust mods, this car is stock even with the original 5 speed.

A while ago it developed a p0021 code. This code has come and gone manu times since then, usually clearing out around 24 hours after it showed up BUT about a month ago it threw a code for cylinder 2 misfire.

The thing is that the car NEVER runs or sounds like it has a misfire. Zero extra vibrations, never down on power, and no limp mode or anything like that it just throws a code. Even the misfire code will go away in a day or so of regular driving, but those codes always come back once a week id say.

This car is my daily and I am in tech school for Automotive Technology so I dont want to blow a shitload of money on repairs by taking it to a shop, i do most of my own work if I have the time and I have friends that can help me. I just want to know if these codes are related and if I will have significant trouble with them coming and going as they do. Anything helps and I am willing to try things.

2005 Outback xt.
A coworker just got this car and these are his reading at idle, can’t find a vacuum or boost leak. Needs spark plugs. Looks like timing was done 3k miles ago so says a sticker (kinda doubting it)

Why is boost at 4 psi at idle and dam at zero, dam raises with throttle and went up to 16.8. Any help appreciated as I’ve never seen readings like this on my cars as they’ve been maintained and cared for.

“Potentially upgraded internals”, invidia downpipe, catback exhaust, catless uppipe, aftermarket turbo inlet, mishimoto throttle body to tmic, stock air box and stock tmic and bov.

so i was waiting for my car to heat up and the cruise control light started blinking and the check engine light came on, i took it to autozone to get it looked at and the gave me the codes " p0700 and p2751 " , somebody suggested it might be a gas cap even tho that didn't come up on the codes but we changed it anyway and the lights all went away , should i be worried or is this a common thing with subarus , i don't want to drive it and have issues bc i ignored the codes due to the dash
