2. OIL LEAK CHECK PROCEDURE AND
REPLACEMENT PARTS
NOTE:
Parts requiring replacement are described in the smallest
unit of spare parts including damaged parts and spare
parts damaged. In actual disassembly work, accidental
damage as well as inevitable damage to some related
parts must be taken into account, and spare parts for them
must also be prepared. However, it is essential to pinpoint
the cause of trouble, and limit the number of replacement
parts as much as possible.
1) Leakage from“a”
The oil seal is damaged. Replace valve assembly with a
new one.
2) Leakage from“b”
The torsion bar O-ring is damaged. Replace valve assem-
bly with a new one.
3) Leakage from“c”
The oil seal is damaged. Replace valve assembly with a
new one.
4) Leakage from“d”
The pipe is damaged. Replace the faulty pipe or O-ring.
5) If leak is other than a, b, c, or d, and if oil is leaking from
the gearbox, move the right and left boots toward tie-rod
end side, respectively, with the gearbox mounted to the
vehicle, and remove oil from the surrounding portions.
Then, turn the steering wheel from lock to lock 30 to 40
times with the engine running, then make comparison of
the leaked portion immediately after and several hours
after this operation.
6) Leakage from“e”
The cylinder seal is damaged. Replace rack bush with a
new one.
7) Leakage from“f”
There are two possible causes. Take following step first.
Remove the pipe assembly B from the valve housing, and
close the circuit with ST.
ST 926420000 PLUG
Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock 30 to 40 times
with the engine running, then make comparison of the
leaked portion between immediately after and several
hours after this operation.
CAUTION:

If leakage from“f”is noted again:
The oil seal of pinion and valve assembly is damaged.
Replace pinion and valve assembly with a new one. Or
replace the oil seal and the parts that are damaged
during disassembly with new ones.

If oil stops leaking from“f”:
The oil seal of rack housing is damaged.
Replace the oil seal and the parts that are damaged
during disassembly with new ones.

CAUTION:
Loosely tighten bolts in the sequence
1,3,2, and4
shown in figure. Then, tighten in the same sequence.

6) After the display is gone, turn Subaru select monitor
switch and ignition switch to OFF.
NOTE:
When the ECM, battery terminals, etc. are disconnected
after memory is cleared, idling speed may increase. This is
not considered a problem because the ISC valve duty con-
trolled learning value has been cleared. To return the
engine to idling speed, idle for approximately 2 minutes
with air conditioner off.

For clear memory procedures using the OBD-II general
scan tool, refer to the OBD-II General Scan Tool Instruction
Manual.

E: INSPECTION MODE
1. PREPARATIONS FOR THE INSPECTION MODE
Raise the vehicle using a garage jack and place on safety
stands or drive the vehicle onto free rollers.

FULL-TIME AWD MODELS
WARNING:

Before raising the vehicle, ensure parking brakes
are applied.

Do not use a pantograph jack in place of a safety
stand.

Secure a rope or wire to the front and rear towing or
tie-down hooks to prevent the lateral runout of front
wheels.

Do not abruptly depress/release clutch pedal or
accelerator pedal during works even when engine is
operating at low speeds since this may cause vehicle
to jump off free rollers.

In order to prevent the vehicle from slipping due to
vibration, do not place any wooden blocks or similar
items between the safety stands and the vehicle.
