This car might actually bring me back to a Subaru sedan.

Subaru gives you a switch to turn it off as do many other manufacturers. I have it on my 2019 Forester and it's actually not bad at all.

Yes you can update while being driven but you cannot turn the car off until the update is 100% completed.

Funny in that most folks debadge their cars and not add badges but to each their own. I have been thinking of putting a TURBO badge on mine with a flame:p

@IcEWoLF...you know that's the truth my friend.

Just got word from Subaru that the price of their extended warranties just went up effective July 6th by $20. Nothing substantial but letting everyone know in case they get an updated quote and it's a tad higher than before.

something must be wrong with your car ive done 130 on the 15 and it crawls right along

 

well...well...well...I've done 131 on the 16...top that:eek:

^^^yep, totally normal to be seen in direct sunlight. The lines are the touch sensitive areas that detect where you place your finger on the screen. Nothing wrong with the unit.

Just got my New Display Board with all my New Mods.. I had the old board for about 2yrs now so many changes since then..

 

Corgrats...you have "the" most expensive Subaru Legacy 3.6 in the world:)

Thank you to everyone who is supporting Luke. He sent me a note and stated that he is very grateful that you are taking my advice and calling him to ensure his prices can't be beat. I get nothing out of this financially but Luke is a good friend and a great guy that will take awesome care of all of you willing to give him an opportunity.

^^^Chrome trim...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I, personally, do not like, nor do I trust, ANY third-party warranty. One went out of business on me that was a A+ rated company. The manufacturer (Subaru) will always be here to support your car without any hassle or out of pocket expense to reimburse. Third-party warranties are NEVER as good as the ones from the manufacturer itself. You, most likely, WAY overpaid for that Zurich plan too as they are HUGE profit makes for the dealers. Just my two cents!

You should call him regardless...99.99% of the time your dealer will not even come close but you can call Luke now and get a cost and then see if your dealer is willing to match it or not and you'll have your numbers in advance. It ll depends on the deductible and the term/mileage so to say "$1500" means nothing at this point until you know what you want. Many options are far less than that through Luke and some are more based on the above.

 

This is what I dug up from late last year but I think the pricing is still the same. There are other options as well but here are a few:

 

7/70 $ 100.00 ded $725.00

8/80 $ 100.00 ded $800.00

10/100 $ 100.00 ded $ 1350.00

 

7/70 zero ded $ 905.00

8/80 zero ded $ 975.00

10/100 zero ded $ 1530.00

Don't do it

If you search the forum, there is a lot of discussion on the valve. A lot of folks have it and very happy. Great product. I buy the short nipple valves but you go go with whatever you like best.

Yes I am not driving the car at the time. I saw it and it was put in the garage and it won’t be driven. The Subaru dealership is around 20 miles away and I’m contemplating calling AAA to tow it there just to be extremely cautious.

 

I’m just happy that I caught it. I got out of the car on the driveway with the wheels turned but how often are you seeing the inside of your tires.. I was going to bring the car in to get the suspension looked at but that’s not an immediate issue but I’m happy to have found this when I did. Who knows I could’ve gone a few more days and I could’ve had a double blowout and a serious accident and a serious bill.

 

GREAT to hear and so happy you caught it. Just understand that ALL FOUR tires will need to be replaced and not just the front two based on our cars having AWD. If you can find a shop that can shave two tires down to the tread depth of the rears that would be better but most shops do not have that capability. May want to reach out to Tire Rack too. In the end, I would just replace with 4 new tires and call it a day once they determine what caused it. If your dealer can find the root of the issue and it was in manufacturing, you can probably get them to replace all 4 tires for you. Keep us posted and I highly recommend you have a flat bed take it to the dealer and not drive it even 20 miles...better safe than sorry my friend!

You need to get those replaced ASAP...death trap waiting to happen and I am not over-reacting. DO NOT WAIT...you can have a major blow out at any time!!! Unfortunately, 4 new tires are in your immediate future. You car is out of alignment BAD.

Make sure your lugnuts are on tight!!!

 

Happened to me.

 

I am very happy to say that I have never once lost my nuts...

Thanks for the link, But I am looking to repair my SRVD blind spot detection sensors... I should be removing my Rear Bumper cover, not the front one. Thanks for the input though.

 

And how do you plan on repairing it? It is a sealed unit...mine had to be replaced under warranty.

security key card?...what does that do?

 

It is a secret decoder card that only privileged Subaru owners have access to who have made the wise decision to purchase a Subaru Gold Plan which allows you to see into the future and determine exactly when a warranted part will fail so you have the insight to have it checked out before failure. TOP SECRET stuff so, if you have one, keep it hidden from those that do not know how to leverage its power.....

 

Or...just put it on your key ring as tornichoe stated above:lol:

I called Luke and he quoted me $1520 or $1530 for 10/100k no deducatlble on a 2017 Legacy Limited CPO.

 

Then my local dealership that I bought it from beat the price and gave me the warranty for $1490.

 

I agree with @ammcinnis...I had a friend who asked for the Subaru Gold Plus plan and the dealer said "we have that" and sold him a third-party at a great rate that sounded awesome but he didn't check the warranty paperwork die to his excitement around buying the car. Found out about a week later that it was a third-party and requested his money back and bought a Subaru plan from Luke. Check your paperwork and make sure it is a genuine Subaru warranty. If it is, then your dealer did you a big favor.

The grid lines on my head unit become more visible as the light on it becomes more direct. If the light is mostly directly on it, all I see is grid lines.

 

I believe that is how they all are and do not believe that will qualify. As the TSB states, the grid lines must be visible at ALL TIMES. My 15 Legacy and my 17 Forester both have it but only visible in direct sun light.

Look at your warranty and see who the warranty service provider is. It should state it at the top of the contract. That will clear things up fast but, as @ammcinnis stated, Subaru has no such factory plan so sounds like you were sold an after-market warranty.

it was not a Subaru defect it was a dealership tech who impacted the drain bolt back on the car...

 

WOW! I cannot believe that a tech is that STUPID that he used an air impact wrench on a oil drain plug...and these are the guys working on our cars at the dealerships:spin:

 

If I was the Service Advisor, his last day would have been right after he performed this moronic task.
