Nice car man.
I'm going to get a cf trunk and the same spoiler you got both from Seibon but i'm not sure if the cf trunk is strong enough to hold the spoiler at high speeds. Did you put washers from the inside of the trunk or did you just installed it with screws. If you can get a pic of the inside of the trunk lid that would be awesome.

Thanks.

I'll see what I can do for you.

So, I took my mudflaps off yesterday. I think it looks a lot better.

I'll get some pics later today.

Thank GOD!

You are seeing the light now my friend. When Nan gets here, we have to steal his when he's not looking for his own good.

Well, got a CEL yesterday. Went to Kragen, but they don't have a scanner. The CEL is still a mystery. Ironically when I started my car in the parking lot, this happens:

Another problem....................

So, I'm pretty sure my air compressor pump is done. It makes a loud screaching noise and the belt comes to a stop when the air is turned on. Also, after screaching it makes a air releasing type noise... The belt is almost shredded because of the seized pump.

**La Mer** · 06-19-2008, 09:54 AM

Just got back from the dealer. They have to order the parts.

990$ + labor

OF COURSE, the service manager says this is the first time he's ever seen this issue on a Subaru, and it happens to me.

**La Mer** · 06-19-2008, 09:54 AM

I took the AC belt off last night.

Guess what happened this morning... The CEL cleared itself.

I did research and found these codes in the CEL list:

P0530 A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor Circuit Malfunction
P0531 A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor Circuit Range/Performance
P0532 A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor Circuit Low Input
P0533 A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor Circuit High Input
P0534 Air Conditioner Refrigerant Charge Loss

I'd put money on it that one of those is what I experienced.

Aren't you still under warranty? And can't you save the labor and do it yourself?

Nope. I'm at ~48k. No extended warranty.

My Dad runs into this issue quite often with his heavy equipment, and has a AC guy that takes care of it. This is rare because my Dad does EVERYthing (maintenance, replacing parts, etc.) on the equipment. Therefore, I'm going to take his advice and not get involved with the AC equipment.
