Thank you for the quick replies and I am some what sheepish that I didn't reseach this problem better before posting. I did thou fine a wonderful site which I will try and visit, maybe to share the tale of five replaced rear axle bearings or the moving idler pulley on a car that was always serviced by "subaru trained" machanics.

You should visit the site alot more. You will find out some great things about our car...not to mention get to meet some great people who will help you out in time of need. Hope to see you around!
