Vehicles Involved: 2006-2008 Subaru Tribeca, 2009-2011 Forester, 2008-2011 Impreza, 2008 - 2011 WRX, 2008-2011 STI
Condition: Severe rattle from front end when traveling over bumps or rough roads.
Repair Procedure: Inspect front end for any loose or worn steering or suspension parts. Inspect stabilizer bar clamps and clamp bolts for damage. When replacing suspensions with rubber/urethane bushings you should tighten with the full weight of the vehicle at normal ride height. It is important to have the springs supporting the full weight of the vehicle when the fasteners are torqued. If springs are not at their normal ride height position, vehicle ride comfort could be affected and premature bushing wear may occur. Replace if required, with new revised Subaru bushing illustrated below.
