  1. Thanks everyone. I guess I will just keep an eye on it as there is no point in getting something like that fixed.
  2. Yep definitely not from doing oil changes as I do them myself. Hard place to get in and clean to be honest. Had many subies in the past and was hoping to not have to deal with any oil leaks like in past models. To me the mileage is a bit low for oil leaks to start but sh*t happens I guess. Just curious if others have this type of leak going on in similar year cars. Thanks
  3. Hey Guys, It's been a while since I posted. My 2016 legacy premium has about 80K miles on it now. I was doing an oil change the other day and was checking things and noticed what appears to be an oil leak (not sure what else it could be) towards the back of the engine, passenger side, more towards the top of the engine. Needless to say not a happy camper about this considering the lowish miles. Any thoughts on where this may be coming from and possible cause. My regular warranty and extended warranty have expired. Is this something I should call subaru about? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks
  4. Hey all, I finally know why I couldn't get my HU to play all my USB songs (800 in one folder). So I know made folders with 250 of each song. Question: Is there a way for shuffle to work across all folders or is it singularly PER folder? Thanks
  5. Updated as software update and if so, why the problem now when I have been listening to music like this for a very long time with this car?
  6. Hey All, Odd thing starting happening to my factory head unit. 2016 legacy premium with the standard head unit. I never listen to the radio, only mp3's on a usb key. Lately, some of the songs (no rhyme or reason which songs do it) stop mid way and the head unit will go to the next song. We tested the exact usb key with the same songs on my friends 2011 Impreza with factory head unit and those same songs play all the way through without issue? Any thoughts? My reverse camera sometimes blinks on and off while in reverse, not sure if that also points to a bigger problem in conjunction with the usb mp3 issue. Thanks
  7. Oil changes near me regardless is about $70 to $90 as they are synthetic oil changes. I used to do all my oil changes but kinda got tired of doing them as I always had to do them in a public place as I live in an apt.
  8. I like that idea, bring a burly, brawny mastiff! I even saw the prick eyeballing me on the way out and I laughed in his direction. At least I take enjoyment in knowing, I was one customer he was not going to get one over on. I should have accidentally spilled the diffy fluid on his desk hahaha.
  9. Thanks and for sure, I will not be a returning customer even for warranty work, there are several other places in my area, all of which are not that great but maybe just slightly better. If a loaner at the time was available from one of the others I would have gone to one of those but the wait time was weeks, no days.
  10. Update and a good one lol (see attached photos, sorry the one draining is a tad blurry and in one photo, there are reflections from the sides, that fluid is not clear) So I changed the plans a little. Went to my local shop and had them drain completely and refill the rear diffy. Needless to say the photos will tell you everything you need to know. $49.99 Got photos of everything just in case the dipshit service manager didn't believe me. I also got at least a half of quart of the old diffy fluid drained directly from the rear diff into a clear water bottle. Called immediately and told said dipshit that I just had the rear diffy fluid changed and it was filthy and indeed far from new. He tells me that was not the arrangement. I told him the customer has a right to do what he wants and I was not comfortable with them touching my car again. I told him I wanted a full refund (we didn't check the front as it's obvious they did nothing period) and that I would like to come down with the bottle of dirty fluid we just drained to prove to him he lied and especially about the so called video he had of them doing both. I was right down the road so I went down and spoke with him. I brought the dirty fluid in the office and he starts to inspect it. I said do you really think that looks like new fluid after 2 days? Vague stare, no answer hahaha. I told him I grew up with my parents collecting and restoring old muscle cars (which is true) so I know what new and old diffy fluid look like. Blank stare hahaha. I then said you told me you have video of this service being done yet it was obviously not done. He said nothing. I told him you were not being honest with me. I then said to remedy this you will need to provide a full refund and he promptly did. I told him that I consider this matter closed (even though I would like to go to corporate with this but have to many things going on). While I was waiting he calls in a service advisor and tells him to take the dirty fluid out of his office as it stinks hahahahah. So, he should thank his lucky stars I don't get corporate involved as ripping off the customer is not something corporate would like to here about. I just need to move on to other things. The shop who told me they didn't want to do the front has now agreed as I told them I will walk them through it with the PDF I just got in my new post. After both services (the rear today) and front tomorrow, I will save about $50 from the dealership cost. Lesson learned and that is that. Can you imagine how many get ripped off like this that don't do some due diligence on their part to check if work was done where it's applicable after getting their car back.
  11. Guys, Can someone provide me with a diagram of where the 3 bolts are for the front diffy fluid change. I just want to make sure all are known so no mistakes with CVT fluid bolts occurs. Thanks.
  12. There is a way to turn it off but it must be turned off each time the car is restarted. There are aftermarket solutions but one must have reverse automatic braking. Excellent on your daughters base impreza model not having it, it would drive her nuts.
  13. ^^ Well that is what came out when he stuck his finger in the hole to get some fluid on it. It wasn't black but definitely darkish (barely transparent) and we both smelled it and he said it smelled like old diffy fluid. I was right there under the car when they opened and remove the fill plug. I showed my friend the photo who does his own diffys and he told me that it is definitely not new fluid. He said new fluid should look more like honey, which this did not. Will update as things progress...... The funniest and sadder part, the service manager said after seeing the photo "that does not look that bad". What type of bum **** answer is that, seriously. He knows that looks nothing like new fluid. One way or another we will know for sure soon enough.
