Slow Turn Binding

Can someone please give me the link to the TSB for this problem? One of the guys on the Outback site with a new 2001 OB is experiencing it and his dealer seems not to know about it.
Where have we heard that before?

Thanks.

Larry III

Larry Aye! Aye! Aye!

Long time no "see"!

I don't have the TSB, but I believe it's just about making sure all the tires on the vehicle are the same circumference (sp?). So the tranny doesn't see one tire "spinning" faster than another. Also, there is a relay or solenoid that controls torque transfer (thats what was causing the binding in my SVX).

If either the tires or solenoid needs to be replaced, the owner needs to drive in 3? figure eights, under 15MPH I think, to recalibrate the AWD sensors....

I know that wasn't very technical... but I tried

There's also the "Figure 8" thingy (doing tight figure 8's in a parking lot -- this was posted by richeich93 on the Yahoo board). I think you'll find the text if you do a search in the Yahoo archive.

Seth,

Thanks.

Now, I'm going to make you want to hit me.
The subject is punctuation.

Your phrase; "Don't make me make you hit me!"; is not punctuated correctly.

It should read as follows:
"Don't make me, make you, hit me!"

The addition of two commas is all it takes.

Thumbs up

I've got an older TSB in my Yahoo Briefcase. It should still be useful information, anyway. Check here... http://briefcase.yahoo.com/bc/richei...ng+TSB&.view=l

I've noticed that you'll need to click on "Full Size" for each page. Otherwise it's too small.

Hope that helps!

A friend of mine with a 1998 Outback was told to do the figure 8 maneuver several times, in order to distribute the lubrication properly in the CV joints, I guess. Anyway, he did it, and it seemed to help the problem. The local Subaru dealer (Huntington, WV) told him about it.

No, it's, "Don't make, me make. You hit me!"

Glad that's settled.
