Just picked up yesterday evening, unfortunately it has a CEL I have to sort out and she's a little rusty underneath but otherwise she seems fine.

I have a question for anyone that has bought the rear seat back protectors online as well. I ordered some recently and when I received them, there were 2 sets. Did the vendor mess up or are they supposed to come with 2 sets?

I had a 2002 Bugeye for a decade and had to let it go when I started college. I was able to find the VIN in some old paperwork, and am wondering what I should do next to try to contact the current owner.

I see several sites that cost money that might be candidates, but was wondering if the DMV is a better bet, or if there is sites you guys have used and would recommend

I've been using the Michelin Pilot Sport AS3+ for a couple years now, and they've been great. Very responsive, no tire roll in the corners and great for all season (I live in an area with only light rain and no snow). My WRX is mainly a commuter car, no track or anything like that.

That being said, are the Michelin Pilot Sport 4's the only tire worth looking at, or are there some others that might fit my needs.

Does anyone have experience with OEM vs OEE windshields? Are they really that different to where the price difference ($300 vs $800 in my case) is justified?

I've heard different takes, ranging from "avoid OEE at all costs, it's thinner and shaped differently" to "they're the same glass, just one doesn't have the Subaru print on it".

Back in college, I had to sell my 02 WRX because I couldn't afford to fix it. I had that car for ~10 years and love(d) it.

I want to see if I can find the current owner to make an offer on it, but I'm not sure the best way to go about it. I sold it back in 2016 so it's been quite a while.

Does anyone know any specific forums or threads for this purpose? I still have the license plate memorized.

Is it normal for CV axles on a Subaru Outback to fail before 80,000 miles? My 2019 Outback has already had a CV axle replacement (about 40,000 miles) and it looks like we're going to need another (59,000 miles).

I have a 2000 2.5RS with busted rear seat belts that are covered under a lifetime warranty. Subaru is unable to fulfill their obligation, and calls are not being returned. Does anyone have any advice on this?

Thanks in advance!
