Mine has been to a few shops lately and the battery in and out like a yo-yo and I don't know if she's had enough time in between any of them to do a complete relearn. It isn't that I think its the sole issue for me or anyone else, but I am wondering if it could have implications.
So how long does it really take? Is it possible that a fix that doesn't seem to have worked, really could be the right one, if enough relearn time is given? How could you tell the difference? Is there a difference if parts are replaced vs. a simple service? I'm confused. Again!?!

According to Subaru, the relearn time for any OBDI Subaru Legacy is 10 minutes or until the car warms up. As per the 1990-1994 Subaru Legacy relearn procedure:
Put car in park.
Turn on car.
Leave on for 10 minutes or until warm (leave car in park and don't turn on the A/C or anything).
Turn car off.
I figured that a similar relearn procedure would work for any OBDI SVX 1992-1995. I don't know if that's the case though. I've tried it with my own car and I can't really tell.
