Most likely the CVT learned some new logic and it will go back to normal after 30-60 min of driving or a reset. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

6th Gen Legacy Wheel Thread
MrCobbs replied to tigger73's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
I’m unsure if anyone has it yet but here is one in NZ. I think 225/45R19 will give you the normal width of the tire and allow you to keep nearly the same diameter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Will Koni Sport Yellows fit the 6th Gen?
MrCobbs replied to GTEASER's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
Are there any options for a softer ride overall? -
Outback Front bumper and suspension
MrCobbs replied to Kyless23's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
Try this one out https://lpaventure.com/collections/legacy-2015-2017/products/lp-aventure-2-lift-kit-legacy-2015-2018 You could probably fit the black wheel "arch mouldings" that go on the outback on the legacy. E201SAL000 -
Yea I saw this one but to be honest the music and wind noise in the video overpowered the sound of the exhaust and I could barely hear it. Also there was a new TSB released yesterday. Can anyone share it if they have access at the moment? It's about a design change or update to the Hub Bearing Assembly which is really important for our cars. 05-67-19 Technical Service Bulletin - Wheel Hub / Bearing Assembly- Design Change

I saw this somewhere on Subaru's site. A retuned ECU for 2018 provides the CVT with smoother and more responsive acceleration. Maybe CVT was slightly changed in 2018 and retuned so maybe that may have something to do with it. The guys over where the dyno was ran were saying they could feel the engine feeling limited after getting around 4600 and said this can be tuned to push out an extra 30 or so to the wheels and torque. In the changes for 2018 book I saw this as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Front sway bar upgrade uptions
MrCobbs replied to fastcar123's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
If you do upgrade your rear sway bar please also upgrade your endlinks or this could happen. These were the Whiteline but I’m going to upgrade to Moog or Kartboy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Perrin steering damper lockdown on 3.6R
MrCobbs replied to XT-sub's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
Not really, just a general, it’s not made for your car. I think since it was soooo difficult to install even when following the installation instructions it may be the tension and strain from it over time may have damaged other parts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Perrin steering damper lockdown on 3.6R
MrCobbs replied to XT-sub's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
It was the Torque Solutions one I had to install since the Perrin one didn’t fit and the installer told me today that they did follow the correct procedure in installing the lockdown tool. I may just look into the solid STI universal joint since the splines and everything match up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I should have updated everyone on this but this ended up damaging my steering rack and a piece on the column. Both were replaced under warranty by my cool dealer after the car kept wandering to the right. It may have been installed incorrectly but please be careful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
This is actually an important issue as SOA is trying to distinguish the cause of all of these cracked windshields on the Legacy and Outback 6th Gens. I can tell you that the construction changed in 2017 - 2018 according to SOA from laminiated to the thicker PVB center layer and it's still an issue in some instances. For those that are getting replacements, are you getting OEM? It seems safelite in some areas hasn't been using OEM. Here's the part number to the newer ones but I'm unsure it will fit. 65009AL41A w/EyeSight 65009AL17D wo/Eyesight I'm sure this was posted before somewhere but here you go! Subaru of America, Inc. (SOA) Quality Assurance has identified an increase in the number of cracked windshields on some 2015 and 2016MY Legacy and Outback models. Further investigation has determined the root cause for many of these failures to be the ceramic materials used for the black-colored printed perimeter combined with the silver-colored material used for the wiper deicer portion of the windshield glass. In response to this increase, SOA is extending the original warranty on applicable factory-installed windshields to 5 years / unlimited miles. This warranty extension will cover windshield replacement a maximum of ONE TIME where applicable on a vehicle with a VIN prior to those listed in the Production Change Information on page 2 and meeting the guidelines outlined in this bulletin.
