    Bad Gearbox????

    I'm not saying that you can't smoke any Audi's in your wrx. That's not the purpose of the vehicle. At least the transmission won't break. I've already wrote letters to SOA, Subaru.com, and BBB. yeah not so much. awesome subaru LOVING blows. fudge you all

    Bad Gearbox????

    Not that the dealer worked on the car, the fact that the car was out of warranty by 27k miles. Aside from the fact that Audi had extended the warranty on the motor for that particular issue because it'll effect more than a couple 1.8T owners. It was also basically in response to previous...

    Bad Gearbox????

    Then why are there so many damn wrx transmissions breaking? There are unlimitted threads about the transmission failures. Subaru will not warranty the transmissions. SOA will not arbitrate with the BBB in the state of Maine; which is pretty convenient for me. I'm sorry, but to admit that I am at...

    Bad Gearbox????

    My point was, that I've had 8-9 other manual transmissions that were beat on much harder with 150k more miles than my Subaru and I've never had to replace a clutch or transmission. Which brings me to my point of: Subaru transmissions = the suck

    Bad Gearbox????

    Correction, the car supposedly had zero issues when I bought the car used at a young 17,500 miles. The transmission had just been rebuilt by Exeter Subaru at 16k miles. Apparantly the life of a subaru rebuilt transmissions isn't longer than 12,000 miles. Actually I'm not waiting on Subaru at...

    Bad Gearbox????

    My girlfriend's A4 (2002 1.8T 67k miles) had the oil lamp come on last Friday. She brought it into Morong and they told her it had a serious problem and they would need it for a couple of days. After being torn down on Monday they found the deposits in the cylinders and it's fully covered under...

    Bad Gearbox????

    Correction. Three sheety tranny's. I'm well aware of my new selections not be able to perform as well. I'm am HUGE car nut and don't need to debate the certain merits of vehicles. How do you think I came to owning a wrx in the first place? Although Mitsu was pretty impressive with 5 WRC's in a...

    Bad Gearbox????

    Yah, but Audi, VW and other vendors have taken steps to extend their warranty because it's a known issue. I knew about the problem before buying the a4. The problem mainly exists with consumer who frequently do short trips and don't change their oil. My GF does mostly highway driving like...

    Bad Gearbox????

    It wasn't denied because of modifications. It was denied because they sent digital photographs to SOA and they saw sheared teeth off second drive and driven gear and denied the claim because of that. They didn't not mention they saw my BPM exhaust, or the date my ECU was reflashed. They clearly...

    Bad Gearbox????

    I've spoken with the Team lead of the District Field rep for SOA which went absolutely no-where. I get different answers from every individual that I talk to, but the same result in the end of SOA not approving the warranty work. The field rep commented that it was a combined decision between...

    I don't find those as rash decisions, but as my only options? What would y'all do?

    Bad Gearbox????

    SOA's district field rep has now officially denied the claim because the teeth on second gear are "sheared" off. Aparantly the teeth are sheared on the 2nd drive gear and driven gear which are phyically apart of the main shaft. From what I understand Patriot has no pull in the situation and I'm...
