Ran enough clunkers over the years, just sack off the A/C How often do you really need to adjust your wing mirror?

Hi, Old Legacy owner, now Outback 2.5 auto. 120k miles, tidy, service history and "mainly motorway miles" honest guv. It's nowhere near as smooth as my old 2011 Legacy was. Ideally i wanted a newer Legacy as i can't really justify the offroad extra in the Outback.......but it does look good. It's clunky, bangs and bumps over the road, potholes etc. Motorway it's fine, around town fine generally. It's not a drive train issue, i think. You can floor it no knocks, no knocks when turning. Just bumps Anyway, as always seems to happen to me, the popular suspension bushes companies don't provide kits for this model in the UK. Anti roll bar, seems there's a few options on Autodoc. Is there a recommended shock absorber that people have used? Don't need extra ride height or super sporty stuff here. On world wide searches it seems there could be many issues at play here, from brake caliper carrier mounts(?) to Monroe shocks and drop links Any preferred suppliers in the UK? doesn't seem an overly popular model cheers

Morning, Anyone suggest a good roof rack for a 2011 Legacy? it's the type with the small flaps that lift up and then the rack is bolted onto the threaded parts below. Wanted a Thule, bought the bbars and the clamps but then couldn't source the correct 'fitting kit' anywhere. need an alternative cheers

anyone got an electrical diagram for the 2.0 litre?

So, removed the throttle inlet snorkle. turned on ignition. Throttle boddy whines, sounds like electrical pain. use a lump of wood on the accelerator peddle. Throttle opens. Still whines, not consistent. Touch the circular disc that rotates and its vibrating at some sort of hi pitched frequency. My mind says that with the engine off i should have a steady position and no noise. Hmmm

don't suppose you have a few pictures? if it's just a threaded section with nuts that would be quite doable on the lathe.

Fitted the other AVCS valve, small improvement but not perfect 189.39 +VAT (20%) GBP

Need to make something, will take me a while but will update when/if i make any progress. Any folks got a picture of the item fitted? Any folks got the kit for sale? cheers

Got a reply from a Thule re-seller in the UK, it's out of stock, obsolete, gone. What a bugger

Hi, Trying to fit a roof rack, went onto the Thule page and see it's a Rapid System 753 kit. Bought this and some Thule square bars but it's like i need something else. Checked with Thule UK and they don't seem to know. Checked with Subaru dealer also and they say it's not a Subaru part that bolts on, Anyone out there have any ideas?

Yeah, there's twin AVCS, doh, off course. Changed one (pasenger side UK) and made a hell of an improvement. Engine Warning light now out. Drives so much better but........not perfect, suffers from kangaroo petrol a low load/revs. Removed the 'dud' valve, ultrasonic cleaned it, it was a bit sticky. Put it in to the drivers side and immediately was **** again. Replaced the orginal in that side.Think i'll need to buy another one to get totally sorted. Gave up wasting time on the 'bay and got genuine from local delear

UK Hanynes Manual arrived in the post................. No 2.0 litre non-turbo information in it arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Does anyone know where i can find this? i've looked everywhere and nothing includes the 2.0

Haven't had a chance to work on the car for a while. Back home soon. I have had the pleasure (?) of banging my head against a brick wall trying to find relevant service / manuals while i've been away. The 2.0 single AVCS is a difficult beastie to find info on, just my luck

Gonna try this next. After that i think it's intake cam sprocket?

Swapped the coils/plug caps on units 2 and 4. Used SureFire that were supposed to be 'good' and instantly developed a missfire on 2 and 4. As the coils removed looked ropey i bought 2 used but good coils from the bay. Fitted and the missfire went away again. 2.CHECK INTAKE OIL CONTROL SOLENOID LH.
