Ok, lets look at the evidence shall we. We all know its a common fault. (Two sets for me in two years). We all know that Subaru's after sales policy is poor to say the least, (I would use stronger words, however that would be unprofessional) The problem is in the low speed damper valveing of the unit iteself, which is why it only does it at low speed. In my opinion this is just typical of subaru's care for the customer. Lets keep putting on units which we know will never cure the fault. Right off me soap box now. I wonder what Mitsibushi's warranty policy is like. Do they replace faulty clutches for mecahanical faults, do they fit decent sounds systems, do they answer correspondence, insteading of ignoring complaining customers.
