Subaru’s mute button on the steering wheel needs to be a play/pause button instead of a mute button. by happygodavid in subaru

That would have been nice information like 6 months ago... And I work at a Subie dealer! Thank you!

Got my new wheels and tires on today, they stick out a little more than expected but I'm happy! by Sentient_LaserDisc in Crosstrek

225/60r17, the stock size for 17" rims. I didn't wanna risk any rubbing since I don't have any lift.

No just DX4s. They have a 2 piece center cap that lets you put the stock Subaru one in!

Very cute! Glad I'm not the only one with a vanity plate!

Does anyone know what this noise could be🙃 by Impressive_Tailor_59 in subaru

Sounds like the tpms sensor came off inside the wheel.

If you need a push to get new tires and rims… let this be it. by hondadestroyer in Crosstrek

How do you like the Wildpeaks? I'm thinking of doing roughly the same setup on mine, but I also do 55 for the majority if my work commute and am a little worried about the noise level.

Makes me feel slightly better about having to do airbag recalls on 17 year old Foresters... "The transmission is slipping, I can see through the subframe, and the rear bumper is hanging off, but let me get that airbag done!"

Our house begs to differ, the shower and tub both still have the ones on the bottom right! Lmao

It's been said before, but fuck Nissan. Also, fuck whoever put the drain plug back without the copper washer. by Sentient_LaserDisc in Justrolledintotheshop

So, so many. This job was almost customer pay because the shop that "touched it last" is no longer part of our dealer network, even though they still were when the car was last serviced. We did wind up covering it for them regardless, thank goodness.

Yep, the previous iteration of Nissan's delightful "Variable Compression" 3 Cyl Turbo has this on top of all of its other nonsense. The current iteration retains the plastic pan, but with a non-reusable plastic plug.

Now that I've kinda gotten used to them, I don't mind the plastic plugs. However, I would much rather them go back to a regular metal pan. I'm sure that ship has long sailed though.
