RIP 04 outback, you'll be missed

can't seem to find the problem but when i drive a super loud claking noise occurs, like super loud. yes i've checked the oil, and a problem isn't found yet. probably the axles are shot and not even worth to be fixed

i'm really pissed off and will be carless, this fucking sucks.

Just as a sidenote:  Subarus are know to have faulty wheel bearings.  Also, not too bad of a fix, but you'll need a hydraulic shop press.

Never heard of a subaru that new die. 200,000 is a lot of miles but for a car that new its strange. Good luck with your WRX. There super sweet.

Had a problem like this on my 98 outback.. mounting bracket for the real diff was put back on wrong... have a mechanic check it out it could be less than a $100 fix like mine
