The most probable cause is stuck slider pins on the caliper holder. These can be fixed with heat if they wont come out. Put a bit of grease (thick grease) on each one before re-assembly. Also make sure that your pad retaining brackets are well greased and free of rust and road debris (dirt, dust etc.) so the pads can easily slide towards the rotor and then back away when the pedal is depressed and released. Old rubber brake hoses can crack internally. A flap of the hose material may allow fluid to apply the brakes but prevent the reverse flow of the fluid causing brake drag. If your brake lines are old you may wish to replace them. you need to rebuild the brake calipers Or buy a rebuilt one for $40 at NAPA or any other parts store. You can swap this yourself very easily, especially if you own a Haynes Repair Manual for Subaru Legacy. YFC
In The Subaru Legacy(Outback) Service Manual and the Chilton or Haynes Repair Manual for the Legacy & Forester 2000 thru 2006.
i don't know if it helps, but my '99 legacy outback was making a knocking sound. turned out that the oring on the brake caliper pin had worn out, and the pin was kind of knocking around.
You are going to have to formulate a real question. Yes, Subaru Outbacks have brake calipers.
its on the top drivers side under the clutch master cylinder or the brake master cylinder easy to remove three bolts i believe
The 2005 Subaru backup light relay switch can be found beneath the drivers side dashboard. The backup relay switch will be above the brake pedal.
Put some brake fluid in the master cylinder.
Brake lights? Check brake light switch for adjustment or replacement
motor brakes? parking brake is engaged? transmission malfunction?
It may be a fuse.
The alternator is overcharging due to the regulator malfunctioning. Replace the alternator.
Shift interlock switch going bad?Check to make sure brake lights are working when it doesn't shift - could be a bad or misadjusted stop light switch - same circuit
It makes the car go slower, uses more gas, and overheats the brakes. I don't recommend it.
