The 2000 Subaru Forester takes 21" drivers, 19" passenger side and 14" rear wiper blades. See sources and related links below. Do not buy wipers just by length however, and be sure to lookup exact wiper blade part numbers for the brand wiper you decide to purchase by vehicle make, model and year. This ensures correct length AND attachment.

To fix the Subaru from starting when the temp drops below 32 --- just put new plugs in and us 92 octane fuel. It made a huge difference in our two Foresters.

I'm assuming you mean engine cooling fan but I'll tell you both, the engine cooling fan has two fuses located in the upper left hand side of fuse box in engine compartment, when i say upper left i mean when standing along side fender, fuse no 20 and 21, the heater fan fuses are in upper left side of fuse box behind cointray , this is on lower dash to left of steering column fuse 1 and 2, good luck

I just can't imagine why you would want to even attempt this. You know that you do need to change the front differential ratio at the same time. You do know that it is all wheel drive, right?. As for changing the rest of the driveline, you will need to ask the supplier of the differential whether the old parts will work with the new differential. There is no inherent reason why you would need to do so.

Incorrect.^^^ The front diff. is built into the tranny. You can bolt the 4.44 trans and rear right in no problems. Ive done it. The reason he would do so is to get a lower gear ratio for more low end, great for racing, rallying, etc. kinda low for cruising the highway, but usable.-Tomcat

put a new one in

Mine 1999 manual has 500 rpm and it's normal (technology similar to honda's v-tec).

Socket elements:

1. Address family - Identifies the name as belonging to the internet address family

2. Host address - IP address (e.g. 127.0.0.1)

3. Port number - TCP/IP port number

PCV valve is at the top of the engine behind the coil. It screws into the intake manifold and has a hose attached to the other end. It looks like it is just an adapter fitting for the hose, so go get the new one and replace the thing that looks like it.

It means that a fully open valve in the engine occupies the same space as a piston at the top of its travel. Of course under normal conditions this never happens at the same time.

When a timing belt breaks the valves freeze at whatever position they are at the moment of the belt failure. As the rest of the engine coasts to a stop if a valve is fully open it will be contacted by the piston and do great amounts of harm.

In a non-interference engine the two moving parts have no potential to contact each other. When a timing belt breaks the engine can be repaired by replacing the timing belt and retiming the engine.

Don't take the chance. Replace the belt and water pump when the manual says to. The belt could break just as you are trying to beat that semi...

There is no mileage where one "has" to change the transmission fluid or filter. It is your car and you can do with it as you wish. The warranty manual for my 2000 Forester recommends changing the fluid every 15,000 miles when used under severe conditions. I recommend changing ATF yearly and you shouldn't need to change the filter unless it has been damaged. It is as easy as changing the engine oil, so why not do a little preventive maintenance? --Ken

Crashhhhhh!

There are locksmiths that actually specialize in the automotive field. I started specializing in auto locks and keys in 1980.

I am making a duplicate key, 05/09 Forester, for a used car dealer at this time.

I started the search for key data with my automotive lock supplier. There were 3 choices for the key until I gave them the VIN number, then 2 were eliminated. They called their contact at a dealership and got the correct key number.

My next Forester key replacement job will begin with a call to my local dealer for the factory key number. Then I will search key suppliers including; internet, locksmiths and dealers for the best price.

My shop has the capability of copying side milled keys. (Laser keys, two track, 4 track, etc.) It should be possible to get the code, (cutting information) from the local dealer for the legal owner of a vehicle. Ask about the price from the dealer, it may include the key being cut. Ask about the dealer cost to program the transponder as it may be comparable to a locksmith.

It is better to prepare for the worst. Whether you are buying a car new or used, it would be prudent to get codes and any key data available from your dealership.

There are crooked people that pretend to be automotive locksmiths that will promise you a key, overcharge you and give tons of excuses why the key won't work and why you can't get a refund so please be careful.

Basically you can get information all over the internet and if you have done some homework you will make an informed decision. Don't wait until you are put in a desperate position where you may have to pay hundreds of extra dollars for a key.

The combined cost of a duplicate key for a Forester, (the key, cutting, programming) will cost from $ 300.00 to $ 500.00 from a reputable locksmith.

(This quote is for an original Subaru key. Aftermarket keys usually cost less.

depends on what year. for my 2001, in the back cargo area, there are little plastic covers that look like grates. those just snap off and you have access to the tail light bulbs

On a 2008, which is likely similar to many earlier models of same body style, open the liftgate and you'll see 2 bolts holding the lens housing. Remove those and then it snaps out. Pull it out as straight as possible. The outside part of the assembly is held with plastic prongs that go straight in. They come out fairly easily. You'll see all the light sockets on the back of the housing. Turn the socket counter clockwise to remove.

indicate what? turn signal? some newer cars have a warning beep that comes on after about a quarter mile if you don't cancel signal, or it could be your flasher making a funny noise

It can't. The the only thing that a VIN number has in common with the engine is the 8th digit of the VIN tells what type of engine it is. The VIN number though may allow the dealer to access the engine number from their databases.

according to the manual you have to remove the front grill and plastic lamp cover then unbolt the lamp housing to remove it then replace the bulbs - unfortunately it is very vague as to the exact procedure for removing the front grill.

I dont think you actually have to remove the headlight assembly, you open the hood and get to the bulb through the back side of the headlight.

if you have a 5.4 or a 4.6 it is under the intake manifold on the passenger side.

no.
