    Yes, we should thank you for doing these videos. Freeze in the winter and bake in the summer and in between it's just not nice. Today it's hot, then sandblasted then soaking wet and the trolls are entitled to their opinion and then again their privileged to be wrong. Thank you for another great video.

    Those suburus are not the best/easiest cars to drive that blazer is very very nice but i do personally prefer the 80s/90s blazers and I was so hoping that you were going to show us the red RAM next to the suburu that looked one nice truck GREAT VIDEO AGAIN RANDY 👍👍👍

    Randy: that subaru is in limp mode. Once the check engine light is triggered you cant change the sports settings , traction control and cruise controls don't work. The boost pressure is also limited. You will have to find out out the problem and clear the code for the car to be normal.

    Subaru technician here. Those STI's have the EJ257 engines. The rod bearings are complete glass. They spin bearings commonly. I've seen at least 2 of those STI's come in with spun bearings. Everything else about the car is great. Regular WRX's with the FA20F engines are actually pretty reliable tho.
    i'm thinking this car probably has a bent clutch fork. I have also seen that before. Sometimes the fork will bend and it'll make you feel like the clutch is bad but it's just not fully engaging like it should.

    • @johntysen3370
      @johntysen3370 Před rokem

      I test drove brand new ones around 2010 and again in 2015. I noticed the same thing with those. The clutch pedal almost completely at the top before it engaged. I didn't like it. I owned a bug eye 02. The clutch engaged right as it came off the floor. I've never heard anyone say that the ej25 had bad bearings. All I've ever heard about were head gaskets and anything over 500hp needed pistons and rods.

    • @RicardoPCGamer
      @RicardoPCGamer Před rokem

      @@johntysen3370 interesting. Many of the 2010's i drive they engage pretty low and the pedal is quite heavy. The 2015's these are pretty common to bend the forks. The later ones don't have this problem. These 2015-2021 models generally grab around midway on the pedal. Not too low or too high. Unless the previous owner burnt out the clutch. STI's generally have a pretty grabby clutch, the engagement is much more aggressive than a regular WRX. These cars really go without having to release the pedal too much. I've been a tech for over 2 years. So i know how these cars drive. And yes the later EJ's which are the 257's specifically. They didn't build the bottom ends right. They have a updated short block for them. Which should fix the issue. But yeah i've seen more than one of them around the 30-40k mile range with spun bearings.

    I'd say the Clutch is gone! I bought a 1982 Subaru Leone Sedan and the Clutch was the same, engaged right at the top. It was mint and looked like it had just rolled off of the Showroom floor! I gave it to my Mother and a month later the Clutch let go on her. That cost more than I paid for the Car to replace.

    @wjadams2 Před rokem +12

    Hey Randy, awesome content as always! That STI is very interesting. I'm curious what that goes for. I used to own a 2014 Hatchback STI. The SI drive is for throttle response, with sport sharp being the quickest. Also the c.diff controls are to set front or rear bias on the center differential. I usually had mine on auto or a click to the rear. Also, I was so excited when I saw the G8 in the side mirror. It's too bad it wasn't the GXP.

    • @2DogsVlogs
      @2DogsVlogs Před rokem

      That G8 could be worse. Could have had the 3.0 in it. That engine is gutless as hell and it has a lightweight driveshaft than bends and hits the body when you plant it.

    My father has a 2016 Laramie 1500 with the eco diesel. speaking from experience as a former dodge tech; Great truck as a whole, but these motors are notorious for their swirl valves going bad. Outside of that it’s an amazing pickup and as long as you mostly use it for highway service you most likely won’t have a motor problem.

    They use the 6.7 cummins in everything.. they put them in 26-28' box trucks, and it's a fairly common engine for school buses as well.. Rear engine transit style(flat front) buses you can opt for an 8.1 cummins, but most are the 6.7.. they range from 200-240hp/500-560fl. lbs I believe

    Fine I'll say it lol...
    The sti is a good car. 98-01 had headgasket issues and the internet clowns assume all subaru's have headgasket issues.. they don't. 08-11 had widespread piston failures that has been resolved for the most part. Engine failures happen but 99.999999% of the time it's when people mod them don't tune them properly then beat on them or they run them out of oil. People drive them like a Honda and they are not a Honda.
    As for the so drive that's your sport/sport#/intelligent settings for throttle response and boost targets.
    C diff let's you manipulate the torque split between front and rear or go full 50/50 lock. It's disabled currently tly due to the check engine light being on.
    Crusie is disabled with any check engine light activation
    I've had 5 sti's over the years never once lost a head gasket or had any issues other than a cracked piston on my 04 at 91,000
    Clutch is pretty easy biggest issue is those 6 speed sti trans are heavy but you have a lift so it wouldn't be too bad.
    Overall it looks good on you
