    Spark Plug Install Instructions

    in Walkthroughs :: Basic Operation & Maintenance

    Posted · Edited by 2006Specb122
    add on small note

    I remember doing the spark plug job a few years back around 60k miles. Now at 125k miles and I recently moved no garage available and its winter so I had my favorite local subaru shop do the spark plugs. Labor only (I had subaru plugs) was $177 (1.5 hours bill time) even though the subaru book lists 2.2 hours.

     

    I can't remember how long it took me last time... it was my first Subaru spark plug job so I assume I was in the garage off and on for a good part of the day.

     

    $177 is a lot of money but after hearing some of the horror stories in this thread again I don't feel bad about spending the money to have it done quickly and correctly and now I have the entire weekend to get other stuff done. :)

     

    Oh, and after this weekend I'll post any improvement in gas mileage. It hasn't been impressive, but if it improves significantly with new plugs I will be happily surprised.

    Plug n Play Aux-in mod for 2005 6cd radios

    Hey Cronkey,

     

    Reason I ask is that for about 450-575 you can simply buy a 2007-2009 Subaru radio assembly. You are right, if you have digital climate controls you CANNOT put in an aftermarket radio system.

     

    However, in 2007 Subaru made the AUX IN standard in the Legacy so all you need to do is order a newer radio.

     

    I'm probably going to go that route soon.

     

    I don't feel like hacking into the radio to put in my own aux-in although it is much cheaper. I would rather have all the controls and ability built right into the deck.

     

    just my thoughts....

    goneskiian!!!!

     

    Thanks so much that puts me at rest.

    I think some of the options out there are great but having the newer radio with everything built in is just too tempting...

     

    Especially if I can hunt around and find a great deal.

     

    Thanks for clarifying everything including that I only need the FIRST part number.

     

    (What is the second one really for then)

     

    $450 is the new sales price?

     

    THanks again

     

    Sorry for being short earlier. I was in a hurry. :D;)

     

    Yes, it's a long thread.

     

    That first post should be amended. Unless the '06 spec B has a different sub set up than my '05 GT has it will work fine. As will the steering wheel controls. I know because I actually installed the spec B steering wheel with audio controls into my '05 GT wagon.

     

    Also, you only need the first part number listed (86201AG67A Radio Ay Up2 $450). You can also use the iPod Integration module Subaru sells with this head unit (https://www.subarugenuineparts.com/product_info.php?cPath=31_43&products_id=1479). I'm not iPhone savvy so I'm not sure what they mean by "2nd generation" when they say it doesn't charge it. I believe there are adapters that will allow charging.

     

    Let us know if you have any further questions!

     

    Cheers!

    Ok, so I tried my iPhone with the Jazzy Mtn kit and like I thought, it throws the phone into Airplane mode which means you will not be able to receive any phone calls.

     

    Thanks JrUbow. I got everything installed but the power wires so it charges while playing.

     

     

    Can you explain why plugging in the iphone puts it in airplane mode.

     

    Thanks

    What's the latest scoop.

    I have a 2006 Spec B.

    I want to use my new IPHONE 4 in my Subaru... ( NO factory aux in)

     

    What is the best choice I have...

     

    I was thinking of finding a newer head unit that matched but then I read that my sub will not work and my steering wheel controls will not work.

     

    I'm not about to add a feature only to loose two more.

     

    So can someone update me with the current deal.... thanks

    Deal of the day.

    was too lazy to swap these myself, went to local Subaru dealer and they said they had to take off 2 of the engine mounts and lift the engine to get one of the back plugs in! Safe to say i wont being going back to them. First and last time using the main stealers!

     

    That is so crazy.... and they even had access to a lift to work under or on top of the car and they still said that!

     

    RUN!
