What I'm saying is, it could be kaput and not throw a code.

It is sensible to try all other cheaper avenues first such as additives and so on, but probably you will have to bite the bullet and rebuild it.

Joe,

“We”, remains confined to two opinions. It is notable that no real evidence has been presented which indicates the problem involves one or both, or any one way Sprague type clutch, regardless of the impressive images from Subaru manuals which have been scanned and pasted here.

Thankfully there is no reason to suggest biting any bullets at this stage.
