Hi all,
I have two question, any comment or suggestion will be appreciated.
1) Recently had the check engine steady light on. Took to Subaru dealer here in new jersey, Just to check why check engine light is on, charge me 150 which later on will go toward total payment if i do the service . With no choice i said go ahead. Came back with quote of $1545 for coolant bypass valve . At that time, I have less than 85000 miles. The guy at the counter also cautioned me not to drive the car at all.
In panic mood, i just took it to my local mechanic and had them fixed, it wasn't cheap either. While the car is being fixed, I just googled about the issue which landed me here in this forum. Many have mentioned that it is covered under warranty. My question is can I get a refund from Subaru or any suggestion .
2. This morning i check my coolant reservoir and the tank is totally empty. upon opening the radiator cap i could see the fins or metal inside the radiator. not sure what level is at the coolant. is that a normal. Should i be worried about anything. I just ordered a gallon Subaru super coolant. Thought i would fill the reservoir upto the full level.
