Best Answer

You need to find out if the fire or fuel quits and go from there

If your Subie is a newer model (mine is 2015) you have to unlock it with the remote-equipped key, and start it with the same key. Otherwise you can run into the "engine immobilizer" that kicks in if you are not using the correct key with the proximity sensor built in.

Why would the front differential dipstick get pushed out and spray oil on a 99 Subaru legacy outback It has been -30 and my car hasn't ran for a couple days When it did start it did this?

The reason for a oil spray out of the front differential dipstick in a 1999 Subaru Legacy is because of the cold. While it was -30 the car oil thickened, when the engine started and tried to pull the oil through, pressure was created.The engine was not able to pull the thickened oil in and the pressure pushed the oil out of the dipstick.


Subaru Forester will not start?

I wouldn't have any idea where to start. My recommendation would be to do what I did when my Outback just quit running in my driveway. Call the local garage for a tow truck. This forum doesn't lend itself to the lengthy conversation necessary to narrow in on your problem.

How much oil should it take in a 2002 Subaru 2.5?

Most 2.5 Subaru's take a little over 4 quarts of oil with filter. Add 4 quarts and start engine. Shut off engine and check dip stick. Make sure oil light goes out. If you have a gauge it should read when you start it.
