  1. thanks again!...i think i'm going to have my mechanic handle the upper control arms...i think i can handle replacing the ones in your first link if needed as long as i can find a youtube video and some torque specs
  2. thanks again!...much appreciated...i will have to look into these whitelines/spc...i may end up dishing this off to my mechanic
  3. thanks so much for this info...after i got under it while looking around i assumed it would have something to do with some of the bushings...i replaced the rear struts over the weekend which didn't do much but they were due anyway... so i should be looking at parts 20250H and 20250I first and then 20250F?...is that correct? https://parts.metrowestsubaru.com/a/Subaru_2013_Legacy-25L-CVT-4WD-Premium-Sedan/_54106_6029048/REAR-SUSPENSION/B14-201-01.html
  4. this is on a 2013 legacy with 215k miles...the rear tires are worn on the insides badly to the point that i need to replace them which i am planning to do today...i parked the car in the garage on the flat concrete floor and aired up the tires to 35.0 psi exactly using a digital pressure gauge...i then put a level up the the base of the tire and measured how far it was in at the top...i realize there will be some bulge at the base of the tire due to the weight of the vehicle but the rears were excessive...i had an alignment done but that didn't do anything to change this...i had a mechanic look at it and he couldn't figure it out...i am hoping to sort out this camber issue...from what i understand there is no adjustment to be made...i purchased new KYB struts to replace the existing struts which are original...i will probably have a shop do the fronts at some point...right now i just want to make it so i won't need to replace the tires in a few thousand miles...what should i be looking at next?...rear control arms? front drivers front passengers rear drivers rear passengers rear drivers wear rear passengers wear rear passengers
  5. thanks...no cause it's a pain to delete my phone and put another phone in there...spotify is fine...just the apple music app skips
  6. 2013 legacy...oem cd player head unit...iphone 8 running ios 14.4.1...bluetooth skips/cuts out on apple music app but is ok when i plug into usb...does not skip/cut out on spotify...i usually don't update ios all the time due to the battery drain issues and slower speeds...anyone run into this?...any simple/cheap solutions...not buying another head unit for a car with 208k miles that guzzles oil like a college kid drinks beer...thanks in advance
  7. I have been doing the same as you minus going to the dealer...I have 140,000 on my 2013 right now and do 7,500 mile oil/filter changes...I typically add 2 or 3 quarts within the 7,500 miles when the light pops (1 quart each time the light pops on)...I hate carrying 3 extra quarts of oil in my trunk all the time...at the rate it’s consuming oil I wonder why I even bother changing the oil and just swap out the filter every 7,500 miles and just keep adding oil each time the light pops on Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. i have a 2013 with about 87k miles and got the letter in the mail about the oil consumption class action lawsuit...the reimbursements are BS and any testing the dealers do are BS as well...you pay for a test and the dealer will say it's acceptable so why even pay...i drive mostly highway and do 7500 mile oil change intervals and when the low oil level light comes on i put in a half quart and then when it comes on again i put on the other half quart...a couple weeks after the second refill it's usually time for an oil change...never owned a car where i had to keep an extra quart in the trunk knowing full well that i would definitely use it all...hopefully they can fix this defect cause it's enough to make this first subaru my last...i would also like to see a little less wheel and a little more tire if i go with subaru again as well...other than those 2 things and the dumb window weather strip folding down i like the car...i hope to drive this car into the 200k miles range like i did with my 05 mazda 6i...only time will tell if it can hold up
