Questions & Answers

What people are asking about this car
I just bought a 2006 Subaru forester. I notice around 65-70 a knocking sound only when accelerating?
I just recently bought a 2006 suburu forester. I noticed shortly thereafter when I get up around 65-70 it starts to make a noise. It sounds like a knocking noise or almost like a tire noise. But only does it when it is accelerating at higher speeds. Should I worry about this or is it how the h4 engine sounds?

2006 Subaru Forester XT?
HI, I am wondering why there is no button/switch to adjust the pitch of headlights in my Subaru Forseter XT (2006)...In every other car I have owned there had been a slidey switch or button to adjust the pitch of the headlights from low to high (1-4)....I cannot find this in the manual anywhere, is it a sensor thing or adjusts itself automatically...

The STI and Legacy wagons have them. Wonder why the Forester doesn't. I'm just guessing but maybe they are not rated to tow anything heavy enough to effect the headlight's aim. Could check if there is any info on this over on http://www.subaruforester.org/vbulletin/.
