Hello there. I am having a problem with my left front brake making noise from time to time, I took it to the Subaru guy here in Sacramento. He said they were fine? It seems to make a scraping sound after the ebrake is released and sometimes when I really press hard, it just sounds like I need new pads or metal to metal. I wonder if these cars have piston problems? Or if I should not worry about it.? The car is great otherwise, go Subaru go. it has 164,000 miles on it. I think it's time to overhaul the engine, seals atleast, it uses/leaks oil at about a quart every 2 weeks or so. ECS light comes on, the mechanic said it was a vacuum leak in the environmental controls, I'll fix this spring. Also he said there was a trouble code from the Distributor system. He said it could be a loose wire, nothing big he says. Should I believe him.? Let me know if I should be more worried. Thanks-daviddare73
