Sway to right on rough road

I'm not sure that you have a problem. When tire adhesion varies from side to side, the vehicle stance will often change. In your described situation, the passenger tires have dramatically reduced adhesion and the drivers side do not. A bit of a sway to the right would be normal and expected. It's rather like only the drivers side wheels are moving the car.

Sounds like flat tire but tire is not flat

I suspect that the tire is old and the steel belts are failing. Pull the wheel off and check the tire for cracks in the tread, any out of round or bulges. Get a new tire (or tires).

Should car be started when bleeding brakes on 2010 Subaru Forester

No - bleeding can be done well statically. Use a bleed tool to help get it right. After complete - check vacuum lines to master cylinder for cracks or leaks.

2007 Subaru forester. Need to replace the daytime running light module. Where is it located?

The 2007 is very similar to the 2005, which has the DRL box behind the glove compartment, at the top center. It's clearly marked DRL.

I own a 2007 Forester manual box 70k it has developed a rumble on the back axle under pressure ie uphill in 2nd or 3rd gear as if going over rumble strip lasts for approx. 5 - 10 seconds. Thanks Joyce

Start with the simple stuff: is the exhaust system fully supported? Harder stuff: check for ... * loose rear suspension components (unlikely) * prop shaft U-joint wear (also unlikely) * rear transmission support blocks

Key fob will not work 2009 forester

I have a few trouble shooting tips for the problem with your Subaru Forester key fob. 1) Make sure you have the correct key fob part number. There are a couple different part numbers that are almost exactly the same. 2) Wipe the board The board inside your remote can get a lot more filthy than you think! When the board is dirty it can prohibit the contact to the circuit board when you push down on the button. Simply wiping the circuit board off can make your key fob like new again! 3) The old car battery reset trick I know this sounds absurd, but it works sometimes and is worth trying. If you exhausted all of the options above, disconnect bot terminals on your car battery for 10 minutes. Then reconnect them and try your key fob. This has worked for many people and I have no idea why. If you do, please comment below to explain. 4) Not sure where you bought the new key fob from, but some of the suppliers on eBay can be knock off quality. Try sending the one you purchased back and order one from here: https://www.keylessentryremotefob.com/Subaru-Forester-Remotes-and-Keys-s/5381.htm

My subaru forester cranks but cant start,the fuel tank is full and the check engine does not come on,what could be the problem?

Sounds like your in tank pump isn't working.....and you have no fuel pressure at the fuel rail on the engine. See if you can tell that it turns on when you turn the key on....I'm not familiar with Subarus so I don't know if you can hear them spin up or not......Most any shop can tell you if you have fuel pressure at the rail....the other way is to loosen the fuel line at the rail and turn the key to on ( not crank) and see if you have fuel leaking from the loosened connection.

My 2017 Forrester does not shift out of low until it reaches 3000-3500 rpm when it is cold. My car is in the garage and the coldest it gets is 45 degrees

Check oil level and colour in the box if black or sludgy then change if not then look to torque convertor issue
