Dunno, have no idea what an STI 8 is, if you give the model, year and market then we may be able to have a good guess i suppose

Have the gearbox/diff fluids been changed recently?

Car was under warranty so didnt have to pay. Mine was like a click but could be felt through the whole car like the gearbox jumping!, not there all the time. Mainly slow speeds and turning. Took subaru 4 weeks to admit there was a fault as it didnt always do it.

i will be doing that tony as soon as i can get to my unit that was the first thing i was gonna do it has had a full service from a main dealers new timing belt and new shocks all in one im still gonna check gear box and diff oil
