2005 Legacy i, ~100,000 miles.
Putting a spare fuse in the AWD holder stopped the "crabbing" (wheel hop & binding) at low speed, so I've ordered: https://rostrapowertrain.com/products/52-0527/
Installation video:
Of course in the video, the assembly is out on the bench, clean & dry.
Is the assembly in which it is installed (part of the valve body?) in the video easily to get to once the transmission pan is dropped?
My local independent mechanic doesn't normally do transmission or engine work...but the transmission shop they prefer has a month wait.
If what the solenoid is attached to is easily removable once the pan is dropped I can probably get my local guys to do the solenoid swap, along with new fluid/filter/gasket, of course.
Thanks for any info!
