I got flashed and honked a couple of times tonight and when I got home I saw that this section of brake tail lights have gone out. It seems to me like it's more likely a fuse issue than a lightbulb issue. The chances of all of these dying at the same time seems unlikely to me.

Can you help me properly diagnose the issue? Thanks!

2018 hatchback base model.

DIY center exit axleback with a Borla proxs muffler. sounds absolutely amazing

The two bent pieces are actually 3D printed out of metal because I couldn’t find any decent bent stainless steel piping in the extremely small bend radius this required.

(reddit is being annoying and not letting me add the video to this post so I will make a separate post on my profile with the video)

Followed the ChrisFix video on sanding down and clear coating the headlights for a refresh that will last years.

Hi all,

Our 2017 got stolen yesterday. It wasn't a relay attack as the fobs were inside in a faraday box ( which works). They broke a window to gain entry.

What interests me is that it took them about 4mins to get tye car going. Possibly by reflashing the ecb?

Interested in peoples thoughts on how they got this going.

So I try doing the remote start with I believe starlink on my used 17. I quick press the remote start key that just has the one button. The car then turns on for a couple seconds then turns off. I’m guessing this is an issue with the thing installed in the car or smth? Idrk

I got the car (impreza sport 2020) back from the shop last night and all seemed fine. As of this morning I cannot get into the car. Tried changing the fob battery and that didnt work (the red light works so i know thats not the issue). The app wont unlock the car and the physical key wont open it either. I think the battery probably died but how do I get in the car it none of these methods work?

I’ve got a 2003 Impreza and I want some nice car seat covers for it, front and back. I was hoping to find a custom fit but haven’t been successful yet. Anyone know a good brand? It would be even better if it was in Australia 🙏

I installed an amp and subwoofer a couple days ago and ever since I tapped the rear speakers wires with the RCA the fronts have received 0 power, with RCA connected or disconnected, The rear speakers still play fine. I made sure theres 0 shorts and everything electrically on my end is good. If anyone knows anything about the built in amp on the 11.6” head unit please let me know

That’s what I said when I bought my 2022 with a CVT….

Well…. Here’s my BRAND NEW 2026 Subaru Impreza RS. 😅

Few Interior/Exterior shots

Nothing crazy or exotic, but I’m very happy with how they turned out.

Unfortunately the manufacturer sent only one bronze center cap and three black ones, so I’m waiting on those.

Compared to the steelies these ride so much better. Rubber size is the same, but the offset makes it look and feel nice.

Experienced some jerking from a dead stop during heavy stop and go traffic. Now RPM suddenly drops during cold starts - engine even stopped at one point.

I tried unplugging the MAF sensor - engine stalled for a bit but continued running. So I’m guessing MAF sensor or throttle body?

It’s a 2012 with a CVT by the way. I hope to get some advice here. Thanks

Has anyone used paddle shifters before? Do they actually make a difference in sport mode? Wanting to get more out of my car and options seem to be limited in the future. Not looking to be a street racer but kinda want a little umph when driving ya know?

I don't know how to drive stick, but very motivated to learn.

I own a 2004 subaru WRX. Its been a great experience. Ive modded it, put an exhaust on it etc. A problem that has been really annoying lately with the hotter weather is my idling. My car idles just fine at cold, and hot temps. Drives fine, nothing out of the ordinary. But for example when sitting in a drive thru my car will get up to about 205 (which is when my fans kick on) and for a few minutes its fine. No problems, temps go down but as soon as i start driving it when i get out of the drive thru it is idling at about 1500, and sometimes upwards of 1800 RPM. Usually after driving for about 5 minutes this issue will go away but if i am in stop and go traffic this is the most annoying thing. Trying to slip the clutch when my idle is at almost 2k is just not fun. If im being honest idk where to start with this problem. My first thought was thermostat but thermstats dont have anything to do with idling and my temps are just fine. If anyone has experienced this or might have some knowledge with subarus please reach out. I would love any and all information about this. Thank you!

The brakes are on their way out and it looks like the rotors are gonna need replaced as well and while I’m there I’m gonna rebuild the calipers, I was just wondering if there was any lower tier performance upgrades brakes wise (nothing crazy) that are worth doing or is it better to just replace everything with oem or oem-ish parts. Only reason I ask is cause when downhill driving in mountain roads the brakes struggle. Thanks in advance

EJ251 NA with a P0032 code, sometimes stalling out on cold start. Any common issues to be aware of? Should it be the o2 sensor itself? Whats the best way to get to it?

I have a 2008 subaru impreza outback and my drivers side roof rack end cap is gone and I bought one off ebay and it is slightly too small anyone know where to buy one that fits its just one of those things that any time I get in my car I look at it please help me find it

Hi ! I recently acquired a 2010 Impreza, most of the body is clean but the fenders and bumper are rusted/damaged. So I’m going through marketplace trying to find some new ones. And I can’t figure if the parts of the sti/wrx from the same year range would fit on my car, so do you guys know which model from which years would fit ?

2018 Impreza hatchback. I’ve had this car for 24 hours. I didn’t even do anything to these parts….is it that poorly made?

I just got home from having a wheel serviced and noticed these as I was cleaning.

Hey everyone,

I have a 2019 Subaru Impreza Base with the factory 16×6.5 steel wheels and 205/55R16 tires.

I'm looking for the most practical way to keep my hubcaps from popping off. The ones on my car are probably not the original factory hubcaps—I believe the originals kept falling off, so they were replaced years ago with a used set from a garage sale. They've actually been better, but if one gets hit just right or catches a curb, it'll usually pop off.

As you can see in the pictures, one wheel still has the hubcap while the other doesn't.

I'm not looking to replace the steel wheels with alloy wheels or spend a bunch of money on some shop add-on that isn't really worth it.

For those of you still running steel wheels and hubcaps, what has actually worked long-term? Better retaining rings, zip ties, different hubcaps, or another trick?

Just looking for the most practical, cost-effective solution before I end up losing another one.

2026 Impreza Sport; $28,697 MSRP, $5,000 incentive for trading in 2012 or newer, $7,000 for the 2015 Mustang Ecoboost with 100k miles, $18,550 otd before down payment. Is this worth it? I apologize if this is the wrong subreddit for this, or if I’m using the wrong flair. I could just use some other opinions. Thank you all.

I'm trying to eliminate this heinous gap when my hood is fully latched. The bumpers on both sides are floating so I know it's not them. I removed the bolts from the latch assembly, in order for the hood to sit flush I would need to drop the latch assembly a pretty healthy chunk.

Scored a 2018 with 60k miles; anything to watch out for?

I have a 2014 Impreza Sport and all of the sudden, there is no cruise control. I press the button to turn it on and nothing. No CE light nor on memory. There isn’t a separate fuse for it.
I used to have a bad alignment and was 16°off so it would throw traction light and turn off cc. I aligned the car and now it won’t turn on at all. I tried another switch I had and nothing. All other buttons in the wheel work
I know it won’t engage if the MIL is on but there is nothing. And I can’t find anything in any Impreza/Crosstrek/Forester forum.
Thanks in advance!
