Sounds like the symptoms of a bad wheel bearing. Have those inspected. It would certainly be cheaper to fix those.
 
Plus that's a common issue with the 99s.

Subaru Super Coolant by sgloon

Does anyone have a link to the MSDS sheet for the Subaru Super Coolant?
 
Would like MSDS for whatever they are using for the refrigerant, which is listed as HFC134a in the owners manual?
 
Thanks!

Thanks ... yes, I'm spoiled, the AC on my A6 is definitely set-and-forget and it cools really well. ... I love the leather seating but the SE definitely appears to be a better value.

Thanks, Graham!
 
BTW, do you know if this applies to the Subaru Super Coolant as well? I haven't been able to find anything on that at all.

Hello
I have a 2005 outback with 100k miles on it. There’s a loud “humming” noise coming from the back while driving a moderate to high speeds. The tires are at half/close to end, life. My ABS light is one. I winder if I need new bearings? Some times the ABS light will go off. Thanks. VL

Bearings must be creating a resistance that the ABS sensor is picking up on.
 
Given that bearing issues are fairly common, that's likely.

It sounds like they just reset the computer? This will make the lights go away untill you rack up some miles then what ever the situation is will retrigger the lights. The loss of the cruise is a real pain. This sounds very much like my situation with a failed cat. converter. What is your car doing? Does it run OK?

Used Outback/Legacy w/Power Antenna ? by gregnw44
Apr 12, 2009 (7:58 am)

Hi, I'm looking at approx. 1995 to 2000 model year Legacy and Outback wagons. Do you know the history of retractable antennas on Legacys and Outbacks? I've seen some Legacy and Outback models with their antenna on the L. rear quater panel, as opposed to the MUCH more common, on-the-roof-over-the-drivers-head position.
 
I'm interested in one of these models, that DO NOT have the antenna on the roof. First - Do you know which models or years this was available? Second - DO you know of reliability... or practical problems with this feature? How about vulnerability to damage, or problems with ice/snow on it, while retracted? And cost to replace if there is a problem.
 
Thanks a lot!
