Replying to: morin2 (Sep 05, 2009 9:08 am) I actually had the timing belt serviced at 100k along with the spark plugs water pump thermostat, air filter , battery, and the transmission serviced. im afraid its something internal Replies to this message: morin2 (Sep 07, 2009 9:26 am) humid3 (Sep 10, 2009 10:43 pm) ateixeira (Sep 11, 2009 7:54 am)

Replying to: humid3 (Sep 05, 2009 12:04 pm) Did the knock start right after all that work at 100K? That's a lot of work done at once and my first thought would have been that the knock might be related to something not done right, or a defective part, like a bad spark plug. Have you gone back and had them re-check their work? Replies to this message: humid3 (Sep 10, 2009 10:43 pm) ateixeira (Sep 11, 2009 7:54 am)
#10696 of 10758 My 2005 Outback GT by bobny57 Sep 09, 2009 (4:01 pm)
I just reached the five year mark with my OB and am very pleased. At the annual service at 35,000 miles I sprang for new front brakes, brake fluid, coolant, engine oil and filter, inspection, spark plugs. Total cost $756. That's ok...you got to pay to play.   Only question: The mechanic didn't replace fuel filter and said it was not necessary. Does that sound right.   Thanks, Bob Replies to this message: ateixeira (Sep 10, 2009 7:42 am) bobny57 (Sep 10, 2009 2:44 pm) bpeebles (Sep 14, 2009 3:02 pm) bobny57 (Sep 15, 2009 2:20 pm) bpeebles (Sep 15, 2009 5:01 pm)

Replying to: ateixeira (Sep 10, 2009 7:42 am) Thanks for the prompt reply. It gives me comfort. I'll wait until 60k as you recommend.   Sincerely, Bobny57

#10701 of 10758 Rear doors belt line molding by ncc4 Sep 12, 2009 (7:43 am)
I have a 2007 Outback and the "belt line molding" on both rear passenger doors need to be replaced. With the doors closed, and in warmer temperatures, when I opened the windows, as they were going down they rolled the molding over. It's supposed to stay flush against the glass. The continual "rolling over" will eventually break the molding, then water can easily get in. I'm inside the 3 year bumper to bumper warranty ( just! ) so the dealer has ordered the parts. Others may want to check this issue on their vehicles.

Replying to: bobny57 (Sep 09, 2009 4:01 pm) Front brakes at 35K??? You gotta be kiddin me. I get a MINIMUM of 60K on brakes and then, it is not the pads which are in need of replacement... it is the rotors which are too rusty....so I replace the pads whilst I have things torn apart.   Perhaps you are one of those which drive with both feet (one on brake and one on throttle)? Both of my parents drive like this so I know it is not uncommon.   Also, most modern antifreeze is designed to go well over 100K miles. (HOAT - hybrid organic acid technology)   Sparkplugs should also go well over 50K.   You ABSOLUTELY should replace brake fluid every 2-3 years reguardless of milage! (or expect expensive brake components to corrode from inside-out)   I beleive fuel-filter is INSIDE the gasoline tank and is part of the fuel-pump assembly. That one is designed to last the life of the fuel-pump. I am not aware of another fuelFIlter besides that. Replies to this message: bobny57 (Sep 15, 2009 2:20 pm) bpeebles (Sep 15, 2009 5:01 pm)
#10703 of 10758 Mystery problem (to me anyway) solved I hope by poodlemom1955 Sep 14, 2009 (5:58 pm)
The mechanic called me on Friday and said the problem with my car is a fried body integrated or integrating unit. Does that ring a bell with anyone. They ordered a new one and it is supposed to be here any day.   I HOPE!!!   NAF
