Exhaust smell / Recall WUJ-95
tmoney468 replied to 2Quiker's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
Right, thanks. My car was sold in May or June 2016 so not sure it makes the manufacturing cutoff anyways. Thanks for providing those Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Exhaust smell / Recall WUJ-95

Those of you who got the letter in the mail, does it show up as an available recall on the Subaru recall website: https://www.subaru.com/vehicle-recalls.html Checked my VIN and it says no recalls available. -
Android Auto any better than Carplay?

Sorry, I mis-read. Hope you find a solution! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Your issue isn’t with the stereo, not with CarPlay. I have an aftermarket stereo and CarPlay works perfectly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Ken's 2016 Legacy 2.5i Premium Mods
tmoney468 replied to KJS2023's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
That seems like overkill for dynamat, no? MLV is much for effective at sound deadening Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Dynamat is not a cost effective sound deadener. Use some mass loaded vinyl for that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
6th Gen Legacy Wheel Thread

What do you guys think of a tire size of 245/40/18 for our cars? There’s a set of Sparco Trofeo 5s for sale near me with all seasons, basically new for a good price. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Weird noise from front suspension
tmoney468 replied to diesel4982's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
I have this same issue on my '16, it's gotten worse this winter and is pretty loud now. I guess I am SOL since I'm out of warranty? -

Wonder if my car is affected. Bought it used last year so I never get any recall notices. Is there a vin checker yet or is it too early? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Switch to 5w30 in the 2.5L?
tmoney468 replied to Condor1970's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
If you read the manual, it says you can use 5w-30 if you have to, but to change back to 0w-20 as soon as possible. Still no clue what the point of this is. They designed the engines to use 0w-20. The majority of the oil consumption were due to the tolerances in their short block ring designs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
How to troubleshoot wiper fluid not spraying?
tmoney468 replied to 2charlie's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
Probably not your cause, but my fathers truck had a similar issue - turned out mice chewed one of the tubes for the washer fluid. I would try to washer fluid lever and see if you see any leaking in your engine bay Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Fuel filter replacement
tmoney468 replied to Cuttlefish's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
FWIW my car had the fuel filter replaced around 30k according to CARFAX. Must have been defective Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
2017 Legacy is very unstable at highway speeds
tmoney468 replied to aki334's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
I notice the instability on the highway as well, but adding the 20mm RSB has helped me. My mother got an ‘19 Outback loaner and the first thing she said when she got home from the dealer was how awful it wandered on the highway. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Navigation Question
tmoney468 replied to adamranavaya's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
Unless you have access to the stock radio free, why not just get an aftermarket stereo instead? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

tmoney468 replied to Condor1970's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
The manual calls for 0w-20, why would you use anything other than that? People have tried different weights to see if it helped oil consumption (which it never really did). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Brake options/upgrade

I had good luck with Geomet coated rotors here in MA. Much less corrosion vs regular rotors. Hope they work well for you! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
6th Gen Legacy Wheel Thread
tmoney468 replied to tigger73's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
Always a benefit to getting narrower tires for winter. Better traction. Depends how much snow your father will see. If it was me I would probably get 17” wheels with a narrower tire and bigger sidewall (for pothole protection). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
2016 Legacy Premier Reliability

tmoney468 replied to bester1's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
Looking at the history of my car, seems like the fuel filter was changed around 30k (CARFAX history). Other than that haven’t had many issues, even though I got the car in February. Really debating selling it because I can’t stand how it drives, the throttle is impossible to drive smoothly on this car. I barely touch the gas and it gives too much. There is no in between.

Engine clatter when starting cold.
tmoney468 replied to klxdrt's topic in Sixth Generation Legacy (2015 -2019 )
I thought this was called piston slap, no? I have this pretty bad when my car is cold as well. Initially I thought something was wrong with my car when I first got it because my Impreza never sounded like it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
