2004 Subaru Forester - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Ignition switch first then look for the ignition relay under the hood.

I have used a flat blade smallest jeweler's screw driver to release connector contacts before when not having the correct contact release tool. The release tools are basically a handle with a thin walled tube at each end, one for socket contacts, the other end for pins. A picture or two of the connector and contacts from each end would be helpful. I hope this is of some help to you.

Hi,if you are talking about the harf-shaft,try putting the car on axle stand and turn the wheel by hand see if the shaft spins strait,hope this was some help,hope you sort it.

Could be several souces: 1. Check the alternator and AC belt idler bearings. Replace as needed. 2. Check the alternator itself for noise and bearing wear. Replace the belt if needed. 3. If very cold (below 0C) the power steering pump make a lot of noise for a while (30s to 2 mins) till it all warms up. 4. If the above are OK, then the next is the timing belt idler bearings.

Simply replace the o2 sensor you have no other choice

rear of the car. Look near the fuel filler hose.

you need to check for fuel pressure next. Could be many things, but a fuel pump or fuel pressure regulator would be prime suspects.

it sounds like timing skipped a tooth

The first step is to read the ECU for any error codes. This will point to possible problem.

It depends on the error code(s) being reported. A very common one (P0457) is that the engine computer thinks the gas cap is loose. The gas filler neck often develops rust holes which cause this code, fix is repair usually quite easy, or replace. There are many other error codes. Look around your area for a Subaru shop other than the dealer. Your problem fix may much simpler and cheaper than the dealer, who often give the most expensive, worst case, repair options.

Same thing happened to 2002 Suburban and it turned out to be the cables which are connected the window regulator (motor), assuming you have power windows. You will need to remove the panel on the passenger side door to determine the cause. It could be one of three things, the cables, the regulator, or a broken fuse or wire stopping the electrical current...this is pretty rare especially if this is the only window which is not operating.

The only way you can get rid of the leak is to restore the closing mechanism to proper operation or seal off the entire top of car. Your call.
