spotted a red lgt in the heights off of fort washington with a bumper guard on saturday

That stinks..so I guess I shouldn't order one until I find where the leak is coming from. Keep me posted on your situation.

that was my first impression until someone else told me.....if ur low or dont have any freon than u have a leak. is this true? can freon get consumed after awhile that you do need to get refilled? sorry for the dumb question...but I have no clue about a/c systems

When I turn on my A/C air does blow out....but it's warm and you don't hear the compressor kicking on.

my a/c isn't working either...i dont hear the clutch kick on. I havent checked the fuse which should probably be my first step but I have a feeling its what your saying. by any chance do u know the part #? or where I can find it? i think this is my problem...whats the best way of finding out if it needs to be replaced? do i have to fill it and see or hear if there is a leak? thanks

I think a good idea might be to create a poll for people who are experiencing this problem: YES or NO Stock 5EAT Stock Manual Stage 1 (Cobb) 5EAT Stage 1 (TDC) Manual Stage 2 (Cobb) Stock 5EAT Stage 2 (TDC) Stock Manual

another rear diff. has been ordered for me.

i flashed back to stock but now I am throwing the P0420 code. any way of getting rid of this other than loading a stage 2 map? i

I also flashed my ecu back to stock...and it still happens but I do have stage 2 components (up/dp, tmic). boy what a difference without my stage 2 tdc etune!

I also have the whining/humming sound. It happens consistenly/noticeable when I am doing 50mph or more but you can only hear it when I am doing a constant steady speedy. As soon as I let my foot off the gas I don't hear it and as soon as I accelerate I don't hear it. Based on someone else on the board they had their center diff replaced and it went away.

I got the call yesterday from Metric Subaru that a rep from SOA will be at the dealership on Thursday to diagnose the sound we are all hearing. Hopefully it doesn't snow so they can test drive it and reproduce the sound. Let's see what they say.

From what I've read on the board...it's effecting both MT and AT.

I had the rear differential replaced and this did not solve the problem.

if it was about 7:15...it would have been me. I was checking out the traffic on the other side which started in New Canaan (car accident)...thank God it was on the other side! I'm sure you saw it too.
