Frustration

Lost my keys on the mountain today at Squaw and wanted to vent. $330 for another. That is all.

$330? Don't know if the fobs are the same from the 05 and 06, but I've got an 05 fob which we found long after I sold my wagon. You can have that for free.

Replaced a part in my garage door opener to fix the fact it would close all the way and then re-open on its own.....IT MADE IT WORSE. The damn thing won't close now without standing at the button on the wall and holding it down and pressing it til it stops. Apparently this means the whole thing is fried....frustrated.



Edit- more time travel? I posted at 5:41pm and it says I posted at 4:51pm

Please post location so we can avoid this....seems like the fast lane on 280N right after 85 o ramp. That downhill expansion gap is a killer. Feels like your front end comes off and im on dspecs and yellowd. I could only imagine coilovers with camber plates!!!!

So I think when the locksmith programmed my new key it made the others not work. Where do I go besides the dealer to get them all programmed? And how do you program a key fob? Thanks!

I would check the sensor that makes it so u don't close it on someone or something might not be aligned

If he plugged in a device to program it he most likely did just take to a auto specialty locksmith should be able to take care of it for ya

You have to reprogram all your key fobs during the same programming cycle (one after another while in programming mode).

I reprogrammed two key fobs that I purchased from this forum using the following link that DaltonSR20DET provided me

Subaru Keyless remote programming instructions

Good luck.

It's the front left, drives like crap, super bouncy and harsh, even on good roads. It was on 128 or 29 going into St Helena. It was pitch black at night and I didn't see the pothole until it was too late. Pretty sure it's blown because when I step on the passenger rocker panel it's nice and stiff but when I do the same on the driver side it bounces up and down. Don't know how I'm gonna fix it without weeks of downtime
