Wouldn’t there be a wire in the back of the climate control panel where you select defog that you could just cut that would render this automatic feature inoperative?

Any hints and/or special info I should know about. Or any reference material I should go to.

Would you need to add a relay on the switch line for current draw?

Hey at 43 it has become only a job and a title, it pay the bills and keeps the old bag of my back. :P

Air conditioning comes on Defrost position.

As part of the design of my Legacy 97 ever time you select Defrost mode the Air Conditioning system comes on. I was wandering if any of you ever deactivated this feature I would like to know how you did it. I think that as responsible adults we should be able to decide when and where we want to have...

I guess you would be right about me being from an older generation (even though I hate to admit it). My next job on this would be to change the timing belt. Any special consideration when under taking this type of work. Beside the obvious like removing the D.R.U. (Driveway Replaceable Units Alternat...

:( :shock: And the verdict is 1317 $ ((CDN) Clutch, both front C.V.s) Oh well beats the hell out having monthly payments on a new car just before winter. I’ll be happy to get a year or more out of it if I don’t have to inject to much into it. Then I will most likely trade her in, get the hand my dow...

:) Hey guys not to worry. As far as being able to do the work myself is pretty well not an issue. I spent 15 years working on commercial large aircraft transport with a specialty in propulsion systems and aircraft mechanical systems before getting a desk job. The problem is time and space. Regardles...

Well for everyone’s here is a bit of trivial information. I just made my first call to see what kind of damage I’m looking at; I was a bit shocked. This is a ball park figure for the repair up here in Mtl Canada. New clutch, pressure plate, bearings, FW refacing and labor (not including the infamous...

Even though I bought this car used 4 years ago @ 70000km, this is the first time I ever go through a clutch. Wouldn’t this be somewhat premature for the clutch to fail? Are these type of car known to be hard on a clutch. My previous Subaru was a 92 Loyal 4WD I got rid of it at over 280000km with the...

Drivetrain slipping.

Thanks.

I'm then wandering if getting this fixed is worthy. Not knowing the cost of replacement? :(

Drivetrain slipping...

:? Drivetrain slipping. I have a 97 Legacy AWD 5 speed with about 180000km. The problem I have is when I’m driving at constant speed (above 30km/h) if I step on the gas pedal I can hear the engine revving up but I don’t get the acceleration to go with the engine. Now if I accelerate slowly everythin...
