I have a 2005 Outback and the seatbelt light flashes when no one is in the seat. I took care of the chime based on information in the other posts. Has anyone else had the passenger seat belt light come on when no one is in the seat? If so, what is the cause and how do you fix it? Thanks, John

Hi All, Looking at Nokian WR or WRG2 tires, 225-55/R17 to replace the worn out stock Potenzas on our 06 Outback. I was just quoted $941 for 4 mounted and balanced by a local dealer (central Oregon). After doing some web searching to find a better price I turned up THIS link for "Hakkapeliita WR G2 AW" in the correct size, $788 shipped. I'd still need to pay for mounting and balancing, but I think I could still come in under the local dealer, or get them to price match. But I thought "Hakkapeliita" was the name of some other Nokian tire model. Is this the WRG2 I want? Or are there different variants of WRG2s? The tread looks exactly the same, but this is the only site I've found that lists the model name this way... I'm truly astonished at how much these tires cost, but they are supposed to be great tires. We're moving back to the west side of the Cascades, so we'll see mainly rain, but also occasional snow on ski trips and road trips during winter. These tires would be used year round. Thanks in advance.

Hello, the driver's side heated seat in my 05 Outback Turbo is burning my buns even at the lowest setting. More accurately, the temperature fluctuates between "is it on?" and "OUCH!" Anyone else had this problem? Is it a costly fix?

Those G2's look to be a great choice. Yes, Nokian's are very expensive but supposedly last a long time and are the only real snow worthy choice of of "all-season" tires I could find. Cheers! -Ian

Replying to: steviewonder (Nov 09, 2008 2:47 pm)   Sounds like you should get it checked. It shouldn't be that hot in the lowest setting. It does fluctuate the temperature though. That's just how it works. There have been malfunctions of these units though that can lead to fires (in other brands, not sure about Subaru). Best to get it checked. Cheers! -Ian
