Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Today the girlfriend pointed out to me that the farm cats have been using the rear passenger side of my car as a scratching post while it was parked for the winter...
And yes, that is down to bare metal. |

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
got CEL for O2 sensor heater control ckt, ordered new sensor from online Subaru parts dealer, took car apart, and realized connector isn't right.
oh, 2005 LGT's may have two different style front O2 sensor connectors - stupid me! what would have been a 20 minute job is ongoing after looking for soldering gun, splicing, soldering, liquid electrical tape all over my hands ..... with the O2 sensor i also ordered replacement side mirror glass for my wife's FXT that had been cracked for the last couple months. i managed to crack the new one, too. goodbye $67, i hardly knew you. FML.

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Took the Beast to the shop and had them put on my ac idler pulley/belt and find out where my leak for the exhaust is. Turns out it's up near the exhaust manifold?, hard telling how much that will cost to get fixed as they don't specialize in that kind of work... but I feel like I got a solid Win! for the $45 install of the pulley!

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Try replacing the manifold to block gaskets and pre cat gaskets. they are cheap. make sure you torque them properly. you can easily do this yourself.
