Car Talk FAQs
2001 Subaru Forester L AWD 2.5L. Why have I had to replace twice in three years the passenger front CV axle assembly? Cracked Boots. Grease sling. Bad smell. Exhaust?

06/2011, 2001 Subaru Forester L AWD 2.5L, First time customer. Had accessory belts tightened. Left belt cover off. Had to go back to get put on. Did so quickly. Mechanic apologized. Lacking a little TLC there for a first time customer. I now go to Kempski Tire.
