My mechanics tell me that they have to disassemble the entire transmission to replace the speed sensor in my 2005 Forester (the speedometer and odometer stopped working). The plastic cog at the end of the spindle is apparently shot. They said on VWs the spindle with cog can be simply pulled out through the hole, but on my Subaru the hole is only big enough for the spindle, thus, the need to disassemble the entire transmission.
2 liter engine manual transmission.
Can anyone confirm that this is necessary or dispute what my mechanics are telling me? Seems odd that Subaru would make it so difficult to replace a part that can easily wear out.
Many thanks!
