So basically Subaru has issues with window motor too... I have a 2015 Forester and it has been a nightmare. The cvt Transmission, engine, electrical wire harnesses in engine bay, reverse didn't work, compressor for AC went. All b4 100k miles.... I purchased mine brand new off the lot 10yrs ago and it's been a nightmare.

This was the first one I had to replace the window regulator, I got hit a few months ago on that side
@Analyzer5221 күн бұрын
You don't have to do all of that. Take the fan out. Unbolt the motor mounts. Jack the motor up about 1 to 2 inches put the blocks of wood in the gap where the mounts are up. Take your jack off the front of the motor to get it out of the way. Take the pan off. No need to mess with anything else at all. Just do a good job cleaning so it seals properly. I've done it. There is also another video that shows this on KZread.

Hello excellent video ..have a question the diagram u showed it showed the 40 amp fuse and the other u called logic fuse 5amp ...where is that located ?
@DrescarsАй бұрын
Hi, the fuse is in the trunk is fuse 152 5amp, the 40amp fuse is 148 so they are close to each other. I have a video with the replacement of parts. I didn’t replace the fuses but it shows where the box is and the relay. There are only a couple 5amp on the rear fuse box. Let me ask you this “why do you wanna check that fuse?” Let me know if I can help with anything else!! Thanks

Was this causing the blow off valve to not work properly? Because right now my trucks BOV wont work while engine is idle, it only turns on when truck is running
@Drescars2 ай бұрын
Sorry I don’t understand the question… A blow off valve (BOV) is a device that helps regulate pressure in an engine by allowing air to escape when needed. By doing so, it prevents damage to the engine and helps keep it running smoothly. Blow off valves are often used in turbocharged engines, as they can help prevent “boost creep” (when too much boost pressure builds up in the engine). That fluttering noise that some turbocharged cars make when the throttle is suddenly closed, such as during gear changes, results from a compressor (turbo) surge. In another words it shouldn’t be on at idle… I hope this answers your question…

Have the same issue but without the sound. 2016 XC90 T6, P0171 code, engine light on (sometimes I've seen a fuel trim code as well, but it's not there anymore). The car doesn't stall or anything, if it wasn't for bad fuel consumption and the engine light I would never know. Took it 3 times to the Volvo dealership, but they can't find the issue. They re-did the supercharger seal after a smoke test revealed a small leak, they changed spark plugs, and now the rear O2 sensor. Short-term runs close to 0% at idle, and long-term is around 12%. I took the oil cap off and could see there was some vacuum (not much), but it did not impact the engine's RPM at all when I did that. There is also some white smoke coming from the exhaust and the exhaust is also pitch black, but the oil level is stable for many miles, and doesn't seem to be burning oil. Bought a smoke machine and I'll try to find a vacuum leak myself. I'll also check for the same thing you did, just want to get rid of this damn running lean code!
@Drescars3 ай бұрын
Sometimes on those Volvos you have to reset the fuel trim with a good scanner… or otherwise is like you never fixed… Look at short term fuel trim at idle and also when cruising. If they are higher at idle, you most likely have a vacuum leak or breather issue, if they are higher at cruising speeds then look for a fuel delivery or air flow meter problem. I hope this helps and keep me on the loop!!! Good luck

Nice video , hope the parts man sent the 2 little seals. I have to say the van without the variable pump and actuator on top is the easy one ! Next is the saloon car inline engine with the variable actuator but has a little more room forward. The worst is tha A class, which is transverse with the actuator and NO room , requiring so much dismantling its unreal. Oddly I have never replaced one for a failed bearing , all have been for a stuck ball valve causing overheating problems , but all the drivers stopped let it cool down saving the engines. Perhaps they don't get to the mileage when the bearings failed and valve failed first...There again I don't work on Van's. Thanks for putting up the video you deserve a cold one , or two 😊.
