Replying to: ateixeira (Oct 22, 2009 10:43 am) In the automotive world if you put the R after a car's designation, it stands for R...   XJR C6R Corvette Type R GT-R   Etc. Either way, the 3.6 is their top of the line flagship, yet it has less HP/Torque than the STi and the Legacy GT.   Just a sad state of affairs and was hoping it would be a serious competitor to the G37x and the other "luxury" awd models at a significant cost savings.   As we've talked about in the past, they need to really get their nomenclature in order for models... Legacy 2.5, 2.5GT and 3.6 would work fine and leave things open for whatever comes next for them.   -mike   -mike Replies to this message: ateixeira (Oct 23, 2009 6:44 am) paisan (Oct 23, 2009 7:30 pm)

Replying to: paisan (Oct 22, 2009 6:40 pm) I agree, the 3.6 is the flagship and implies luxury, not sport. It should be the 3.6 Limited or something like that, no R in sight. Replies to this message: paisan (Oct 23, 2009 7:30 pm)

Replying to: ateixeira (Oct 23, 2009 6:44 am) Well the Flagship COULD be sporty, however the 3.6R which implies sporty, is not. Heck even the Lexus LS460 Sport now gets Brembo Calipers!   -mike

Replying to: paisan (Oct 14, 2009 5:26 pm) Hi this is super random but I have been online for literally 2 days now trying to figure out how to fix my car. I have a 2009 Legacy and just put a mid priced air filter on her. ... and she hates it. I can get it running but it dies after about 15 or 20 seconds. If i have the AC on full blast i can keep it running a bit longer but i'm totally confused about why it would be doing this. I have quadruple checked all hoses, gaskets, clamps, etc. I'm thinking about heading out again in a bit to screw with the idle. But yeah. If you'd hit me u[p i'd really appreciate it.

Replying to: foxybabydoll (Oct 24, 2009 1:56 am) You either don't have the airbox complete latched (It can be a PITA) or one of the vacum hoses came off during the installation and you missed it. This is fairly common when doing an air filter replacement.   -mike Subaru Guru and Track Instructor Replies to this message: xwesx (Oct 26, 2009 8:24 am) paisan (Oct 26, 2009 6:49 pm) ateixeira (Oct 27, 2009 8:00 am)

Replying to: paisan (Oct 24, 2009 6:58 am) Yeah, I was going to suggest the MAF sensor connector or a vacuum hose.   Definitely do not fiddle with the idle. Replies to this message: paisan (Oct 26, 2009 6:49 pm)

Replying to: xwesx (Oct 26, 2009 8:24 am) I don't think you can actually adjust the idle on any of the new electronically controlled cars these days.   -mike

Replying to: paisan (Oct 24, 2009 6:58 am) I 2nd the vacuum hose theory.   That happened to a Subaru Crew member when they did their intake.   Look closely, even disassemble and reassemble the whole intake, I bet that's it.

Replying to: paisan (Oct 20, 2009 5:43 pm) For a car called a 3.6R as in RACEFor this car "R" means Retired:-) You got slow 0-60 and "comfortable" ride. Some kind of Subary Buick.
#59 of 59 R stands for regular by beachfish2 Nov 08, 2009 (1:27 pm)
Gas.   Sort of obvious.   C'mon y'all, get with it.   John
