Buachaille

An update from my situation, for future readers. The garage found that the issue was that the Exhaust Pressure Actuator had seized. Due to the cost and delay of at least a couple of weeks for the Subaru dealer to supply a new part, the garage freed off and lubricated the mechanism, before refitting. Fault codes were cleared and vehicle tested.

Hi James_AU, Thank you for getting back to me. I'll be calling a garage on Monday morning. I need to get it dealt with before Thursday afternoon, as I'm getting a cracked windscreen replaced then. That requires the EyeSight system to be calibrated etc., which will be tricky to do if the system is disabled. I might just have to get the code read and reset, so I can get things calibrated, then get the issue dealt with.

@James_AU I'm a newbie here, but this is the issue I have with my Outback. Apologies for the thread revival. It has seemed previously to be DPF related, at least to me. Driving the car (auto) in the manner outlined in the manual for DPF regen for a Manual Transmission has normally cleared it, however it seems to be sticking around this time. I am wondering what info you got from the dealer?
