Hi All,

Just picked up a super clean 2006 Sedan with 6MT with only 48k miles.

I almost purchased an Infiniti back in 2004 but bought a rare 2005 Subaru Legacy GT Wagon 5MT instead.

After 90k mostly trouble free miles, my turbo blew. When these turbos fail, metal parts get sent throughout the engine...I was not prepared for any more surprises.

My new G is almost perfect. Other than a randomly sticky clutch pedal, all is great.

Thanks for all the great advice in this forum. I hope to contribute soon.

 

Welcome, we need pics!

 

Welcome....change out your clutch fluid with dot 4 fluid. Bleed it or if you can't bleed it use a turkey baster and suck up old fluid. Add new fluid and pump clutch pedal 10 times and then suck out old fluid and add new fluid along with pump pedal 10 times. Do this till you go through 33% off the bottle and then drive around with new fluid and come back to your garage. Repeat the process again and keep doing this till you run out of fluid. You need to cycle a whole bottle of fluid or until your fluid is clean and clear. What color is your fluid right now in your reservoir???

 

Watch out for oil consumption!

You might want to test it now before your warranty is up (if you have any that is)

 

Thanks for the welcome.

Oil level has been good for 500 miles now. I still have 6 months power train left.

I have done the turkey baster about 5 times now. I always fixes the problem, but it comes back after 30+ minutes of city driving. I may just do a full fluid change. It that doesn't work, I may replace the master and slave.

Thanks for the tips.

 

awesome, any more details on what options you got on the car or color? got any pics? mind me asking what you paid for it?

Also, welcome to the forum. Stay away from the "aggressive sedan thread" unless you want to start spending a ton of money on your car

 

WELCOME, What city do you live in?

 

Welcome! We are in definite need of pictures...

 

Sounds like you are getting air in the system, check for leaks around the master cylinder, lines, and slave cylinder.
