  1. Hi guys, My 13 got the new engine in Dec when it had 98k miles, I have put about 10k miles since then and the car runs great but I am bored with the car so I am looking at the Gen 6. has anyone traded in their car that had the engine replaced under the oil issue and did it work for or against you? Thanks Mike
  2. DOHC, thanks for the link. That really sounds like the exact issue I am having. I did check the belts and they are solid. Changing the fluid is a good idea anyway!
  3. No foaming, no noise and the car has the original belt AND fluid. Is changing the O-Ring a major repair? Its when you go to leave in the morning the steering is VERY tight and by the time I go to the top of my driveway it's "freed' up and there are no issues. Say I am out and about all day there is no issues, this ONLY happens in the morning after the car has been sitting for a while.
  4. The past 2 weeks where it has been VERY cold in the overnights, the next day when I leave in the morning my power steering in my 07 Legacy (100k miles) is really not working for the 20-30 seconds then once I get driving it's fine. I normally let the car warm up for 4-6mins before I leave depending how cold it is. I checked the fluid levels and they are fine. I just moved my car in the driveway NOT warmed up and sweet jesus I was powering it. So I did a quick google search and the response I found was in the cold weather the fluid gets too thick while sitting and once the car is warmed up it makes it easier to flow. We are just starting the winter here, I can't handle this all winter. Is there anything I can do to resolve this issue? I read 1 tip to use synthetic tranny fluid because it doesn't have the "freezing" issue. Any help would be HUGELY appreciated!
