problem #1

Aug 142013

Impreza Outback Sport

  • Automatic transmission
  • 130,000 miles

This made my car really stinky, as the fluid dripped down onto the exhaust. When it happens no one wants to just replace the boot, they want to replace the whole half shaft assembly. The whole problem and solution is described in great detail here:
