Thanks guys.

Just want to see I have everything covered:

Engine oil
Transmission fluid
Power steering fluid
Brake fluid
Diff oil

Anything I've missed? Should I flush the radiator fluid?

Hi all, I'm looking to do the 100K service on my 2004 3 litre Outback. I've ordered the NGK platinum plugs from the USA ($97 for 6 delivered, as opposed to $24 each locally!) and I'll obviously also do the oil and oil filter, but what else should I be doing? Fuel filter? Air Filter? Transmission flu...

Thanks very much for the links, most appreciated.

Hi all, I'm looking to do the 100000 KM service on the wife's 2004 3.0R Outback. I've previously used the Gregory's manuals for our other cars but I can't seem to find an equivalent style manual for the Outback. Does anyone know if there is such a beast? Failing that, any suggestions? I've stumbled ...

Just spoke with Repco. They are no longer stocking DBA rotors and had a sale on all DBA stock. Unfortunately for me there are no DBA rear rotors for my car in the country, bummer.

Thanks very much, I'll drop in on the way home from work and have a look.

Another question regarding brakes services, when I bleed the brakes does anyone happen to know the correct order for my car?

Any suggestions where to purchase rotors and pads in Melbourne SE suburbs? I got a quote from Eastcoast Spares for $120 per rotor but that sounded a little steep, or does that sound reasonable and am I being a tight ass?

Hey, I would get new pads and new rotors. I find machining rotors isn't worth it. This will show you how to do it, its really easy. Most Subaru maintance is quite easy :mrgreen: Its 99% the same for all Subarus although this is done on a 04 Forester XT Good Luck Taza Awesome! Thanks very much Taza.

Hi all, My wife's car has just hit 100K and I've just booked it in for the service. (around $1100, ouch!) Apart from the standard servicing I know it also needs new pads and as it's still on the original rotors perhaps they need replacing as well. I'm a sparky so I'm pretty handy however I haven't c...

Just a heads up for anyone else ever finding this post with the same issue. An in-dash kit is around $750 on its own. Add a decent stereo at $500 and it's a $1350 project to replace a standard unit with ANYTHING after market. Ouch! Subaru, what the hell were you THINKING integrating the HVAC with th...

Try sending him a PM

Thanks Suparoo,

Would you happen to know his member name?

Big thanks to all that responded. I'll have a look at the options during the week and let you know how I go.

Hi all, I have a 2004 Outback Premium 3.0R and the CD stacker died a few months ago. After the CD failure I then got myself a cassette module that let me plug my iPod in via the tape deck but now the tape deck has died! This has now forced me to address the problem in a more permanent way so I am ho...
