This is Fun

Hello,
I just a bought 92 LSL and being the big internet geek I am, I gravitated to your fine message board.

What a wonderfull place!

Car (I need to pick a name, and perhaps a gender) just got back from the Subaru Dealership, rear wheel bearing and front struts were replaced. I bugged them every day until it was done! It's now very very nice. I MOST enjoy the 20 miles to my stressfull job on I-81 now.
The transmission seems well to do.. I tourtured it during the test drive - up a hill with the e-brake on in drive until about 30 MPH. Did not slip an inch and the fluid smells like it's been in there a while but not burnt and a nice red color. I'll need new tires soon, the fronts are chopped and uneaven because of the neglected front struts.
I should change all four at once right?
Where is the stinking rear wiper fuse?

I'm sorry, I did exagerate a bit, the E-brake was not all the way on, just held it back some.

The mechanic at the dealership kind of got emotional when he went over my bill, telling me to "take care of that car, ok?"

WELCOME !!!!

Yup, change them all at once, ABS and all that stuff likes symmetry, plus all of your wheels are going the wrong way. I got a brand new set of Fulda Extremo's for $460.00 OTD.

Congratulation on the purchase of the new pearlie. Oh, and has any one else told you that your wheels ....... ok, that's good.

Glad you like it here. Take good care of her, and she will take good care of you.
