2005 Subaru impreza shudders

the screaching noise is 1 of your belts needs to be tightened. noise from the right front tire sounds like a bad sturt or ball joint and that needs to looked at

Ckeck your govenator .

Is your steering wheel locked maybe? Try moving the steering wheel from side to side (there should only be a couple of millimeters of play) while trying to turn the key.

THE ONLY WAY TO ADJUST YOUR CLUTCH IS TO BLEED THE FLUID AFEW TIMES,,EG...FIND THE BLLED SCREW..GET SOMEONE TO PUMP THE CLUTCH A FEW TIMES,HOLD IT DOWN,RELEASE SCREW.FLUID SQUIRT OUT,,TIGHTEN SCREW.PUMP AGAIN, HOLD,RELEASE SCREW,SQUIRT ,TIGHTEN....THIS RELEASES ANY AIR IN PIPES,OR MASTER CYLINDER..IF IT DOESNT IMPROVE NEED NEW CLUTCH,THEY ARE SELF ADJUSTING, AND EVEN AFTER A FEW MONTHS IT WILL SHUDDER SLIGHTLY ANYWAY,DUE TO STRAIN.THATS IF IT IS FOUR WHEEL DRIVE,MORE IF TURBO...I HAVE ONE,WITHIN 2 MTHS,SLIGHT SHUDDER ARRIVES,THATS A EXEDDY CLUTH £360

The fuse is down on the right side of the steering wheel. It is below the plastic dash. Its a small box hidden away to the right. Small plastic square lid. Easiest to find if u scoot the seat right back and have a good look above the accelerator to the right!

I must say I enjoyed reading your post, you sound very nice. The problem sounds like possibly the C-V joints may need attention. They will cause a vibration and a grinding noise very noticeable at slow speeds. I hope this helps with your situation and hope you have a wonderful day.

when it starts to shutter get the car up on a lift and spin the wheels and look and see if there is a wheel bubble.
if the brakes were done recently a binding brake pad can cause some of that.
hope this helps

No, it's all wheel drive.

juddering is UK english for shuddering in US english. The center bearing shouldn't move, i/e/ the shaft should rotate w/o side play in the bearing, but the rubber mounts for the bearing should be flexible. The needle bearings in the universal joints in the front to rear drive shaft can go bad, causing noise when accelerating and they're not changeable w/o special tools. Your problem also sounds like differential, which would mean that you need to change the gear oil in the rear differential. As the oil ages it stops working properly in the limited slip differential even if visually OK. Do the front differential at the same time, engine heat ages it even faster. The center diff is in the AT, so you would change the AT filter and fluid.
How to tell which problem you have... in a parking lot with dry pavement, stop the vehicle, turn the wheel hard right, accelerate a moment, and repeat hard left and centered. If its worse turning, than straight suspect the differential fluids first. If its the same turning or not and especially if its the same on wet or dry pavement and at slow and high speed then look into the propeller shaft first.

have you tried jerking the steering wheel to the left then right while attempting to turn your ignition key? that happend to me and thats all i did to free the ignition lock up, try it it might work.
