The Good:

VA inspection good through 05/11
Current on maintenance (timing belt done at 105k)
Brake pads/rotors replaced spring 2010
Good tires (Kumho Ecsta ASX)
Never modded

The Bad:

It occasionally throws P1086/1088 codes, which are for the tumble generator valves in the intake. I've replaced one of the TGV sensors, to no effect. This is just stupid emissions crap - the car still runs/drives fine after I clear the code. The best next step would be to get rid of the TGV valves altogether and reprogram the ECU.

The rear driver's side brake rotor rubs on the mechanism for the parking brake. This manifests itself as a muffled grinding or clunking sound on hard right turns. I pulled the rotor and ground some material off with a Dremel, but the noise is still there. This is a known WRX issue, and I can show pictures of the parking brake drum where the brake rotor rubs.

We've also had an intermittent hard start condition - on warm starts after the car has been parked for 20-30 minutes. The engine was turning over, but not firing. After some research, I cleaned the air filter, IACV, and MAP sensor, and the car hasn't had any starting issues since. That work also appears to have cleared up an occasional high idle.

The Ugly:

It has a dent/scratches/rust on the passenger side front fender, thanks to an ambush by a mailbox. It's been like that for 5 years. The bumpers have been used as, well, bumpers, and they look like it. I think all of these cosmetic things fall under the category of "Subaru Character".

I would *really* like to buy an extra WRX wheel if you've got one lying around.

Very interested, as I need something dependable and fun.

Let me finalize the Mustang sale, and I'll probably be in touch next weekend.

Sell the AR yourself and give me $6500 Smile

Re: FS: 2004 Subaru WRX Wagon - Ryan T - 01-10-2011

Haha I'd thought about doing that too! We are looking for an awd car that Samantha can drive and we can share in bad weather, we've got $5,000 and both agreed that's all we wanted to spend. Your WRX should go quick at $6500.

Re: FS: 2004 Subaru WRX Wagon - JohnC - 01-14-2011

The car passed a PPI today with flying colors - sale pending today or tomorrow.

Re: FS: 2004 Subaru WRX Wagon - JohnC - 01-14-2011

Sold, even though it threw another CEL.

Re: FS: 2004 Subaru WRX Wagon - BLINGMW - 01-14-2011
