Replying to: idearequest (Mar 13, 2009 3:00 pm) The 3.0 likes 91-93 octane. Is your engine temp normal when it stutters....the 3.0 is known to have some hot spots in the cylinder head which were cured in the 3.6l re-design. The cooling changes are what permits 87 octane in the 3.6. Check coolant level. Some earlier 3.0 engines needed "burping" to get rid of air in cooling system...try a search for much earlier posts. Are you sure there is no water in your fuel? Have you tried an Italian tune-up...wide open throttle to max shift points under full load several times.

Replying to: occking (Feb 01, 2005 9:05 am) The problem with the Subaru design is that the "feet only" setting is almost identical to the "feet and windshield" setting, where most air flows out of the windshield vent and the console vent, and just a fraction comes out of the floor vent. I wonder if this is something the dealer can tweak. Otherwise this car is going to be a major main for me to drive in the winter...which ironically was what we bought it for!

Replying to: saedave (Mar 13, 2009 5:27 pm) This doesn't happen when I first start the car for the day. It happens after it's run a bit but then been sitting for a little while, so it's not usually cold again yet. I use premium gas and just had all the fluids service done. Since then, I've tried a few Italian tun-ups and will try a few more. I'll also check on the other things you mentioned. Thanks so much.
