Hi,
We just picked up an 02 Legacy L Wagon with 77k on it. So far, so good, but I do have a couple of questions:
The only thing that lights up on the driver's door is the power window switch that says "AUTO" - should the mirror controls light up? They look like they do - but I'm no rush to tear the door panel off if I don't need to.
Timing chain or belt on the 2.5? If it's a belt, what's the replacement schedule? (The owner's manual didn't say) And how much of a production is it to change? (I'm a diy-er but don't yet have a shop manual.)
The check engine light came on when I went to pick it up - I cleared the codes myself with my autotap (p0130 & p0171) - am I looking at fixing something or is this just bad luck? (My Trans Am has had a failing O2 sensor for three years, I clear the code once a summer...)
What commonly breaks on these cars? For better or for worse, it has a new clutch... when we test drove it the first time it was totally smoked... so I wonder if the previous owner just sucked or ???
This is my first Subaru, so be gentle. ;) (I really wanted a WRX but I need room for two baby seats...)
