Hey all,
I heard quite a shocking thing today. Apparently the Subaru engines, more so those of the STI stable, have a tendency to have a very short lifespan. Is there any truth in this as far as you guys are concerned? And is the same also applicable to the engines of the Forester? Turbo or N/A variances?
When I bought the truck about a year or so ago, I noticed that the instructions to engage 4 wheel are partially rubbed out.
From what I gather it says...
To engage HI, shift while driving
To engage Lo, Stop, put truck in neutral, shift to 4 low fast and hard. Then put truck to drive.
Does this sound right? I find sometimes it makes a grinding noise. From what i have heard, that is normal. Also seems to pop out of 4wheel with a bang.
(also says do not drive on hard surfaces, its hard on it... must drive on dirt, snow etc.
Whats going on here? And does anyone have a good picture of there instructions on there visor?
