1) Feed the specified fluid with its level being about 5 cm
(2.0 in) lower than the mouth of tank.
2) Continue to turn steering wheel slowly from lock to lock
until bubbles stop appearing in the tank while keeping the
fluid at that level.
3) In case air is absorbed to deliver bubbles into piping
because the fluid level is lower, leave it about half an hour
and then do the step 2) all over again.
4) Start, and idle the engine.
5) Continue to turn steering wheel slowly from lock to lock
again until bubbles stop appearing in the tank while keep-
ing the fluid at that level.
It is normal that bubbles stop appearing after three times
turning of steering wheel.
6) In case bubbles do not stop appearing in the tank, leave
it about half an hour and then do the step 5) all over again.
7) Stop the engine, and take out safety stands after jack-
ing up vehicle again.
Then lower the vehicle, and idle the engine.
8) Continue to turn steering wheel from lock to lock until
bubbles stop appearing and change of the fluid level is
within 3 mm (0.12 in).
9) In case the following happens, leave it about half an
hour and then do step 8) again.
(1) The fluid level changes over 3 mm (0.12 in).
(2) Bubbles remain on the upper surface of the fluid.
(3) Grinding noise is generated from oil pump.

12. Brake Fluid Replacement
NOTE:
To always maintain the brake fluid characteristics, replace
the brake fluid according to maintenance schedule or ear-
lier than that when used in severe condition.
A: REPLACEMENT
CAUTION:

The FMVSS No. 116, fresh DOT3 or 4 brake fluid
must be used.

Cover bleeder with waste cloth, when loosening it,
to prevent brake fluid from being splashed over sur-
rounding parts.

Avoid mixing different brands of brake fluid to pre-
vent degrading the quality of the fluid.

Be careful not to allow dirt or dust to get into the
reservoir tank.
NOTE:

During bleeding operation, keep the brake reserve tank
filled with brake fluid to eliminate entry of air.

Brake pedal operating must be very slow.

For convenience and safety, it is advisable to have two
man working.

The amount of brake fluid required is approximately 500
m
(16.9 US fl oz, 17.6 Imp fl oz) for total brake system.

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.

3. Diagnosis System

Since the rear wheels will also roting, do not place
anything near them. Also, make sure that nobody goes
in front of the vehicle.
OBD0073A

FWD MODELS
WARNING:

Before raising the vehicle, ensure parking brakes
are applied.

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

If only the front wheels are raised or placed on a free
roller, apply parking brakes and lock the rear wheels.

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.

Since the rear wheels will also roting, do not place
anything near them. Also, make sure that nobody goes
in front of the vehicle.

3. Diagnosis System

When mounting a large power type radio, pay spe-
cial attention to the three items above mentioned.

Incorrect installation of the radio may affect the
operation of the ECM.
8) Before disconnecting the fuel hose, disconnect the fuel
pump connector and crank the engine for more than five
seconds to release pressure in the fuel system. If engine
starts during this operation, run it until it stops.
9) Problems in the electronic-controlled automatic trans-
mission may be caused by failure of the engine, the elec-
tronic control system, the transmission proper, or by a com-
bination of these. These three causes must be distin-
guished clearly when performing diagnostics.
10) Diagnostics should be conducted by rotating with
simple, easy operations and proceeding to complicated,
difficult operations. The most important thing in diagnostics
is to understand the customer’s complaint, and distinguish
between the three causes.
11) In AT vehicles, do not continue the stall for more than
five seconds at a time (from closed throttle, fully open
throttle to stall engine speed).
12) On ABS or ABS/TCS vehicle, when performing driving
test in jacked-up or lifted-up position, sometimes the warn-
ing light may be lit, but this is not a malfunction of the sys-
tem. The reason for this is the speed difference between
the front and rear wheels. After diagnosis of engine control
system, perform the ABS or ABS/TCS memory clearance
procedure of self-diagnosis system. 4-4b [T6C2] or [T9K0].>
C: PRE-INSPECTION
Before performing diagnostics, check the following items
which might affect engine problems:
1. POWER SUPPLY
1) Measure battery voltage and specific gravity of electro-
lyte.
Standard voltage: 12 V
Specific gravity: Above 1.260
2) Check the condition of the main and other fuses, and
harnesses and connectors. Also check for proper ground-
ing.
OBD0091A
2. ENGINE GROUNDING
Make sure the engine grounding terminal is properly con-
nected to the engine.
