  • working for subaru for over two years, this is normal after some time, engine harmonics... get your engine mounts checked though, they can transfer vibration to the cabin...

  • Thanks for that.

    Engine mounts eh? I've already snapped a gearbox mount...

  • thats called the boxer growl. dude, you shouldn't have a subaru if you don't know what it's supposed to do.

  • I think you need to either turn up the volume and listen carefully or get your ears checked. ;)

  • We got the same on our 94/95 Legacy with the 2.0 Engine. I think it's the heat shield over the KAT...but im not sure.

    I am 100% sure that it's coming from the front of the car and it only does it when its warm.

    Oh and it does it between 3500 and 4500 rpm.

    I will make a Video tomorrow.

see all

  • it's the heat shield. my '08 3.0R did the same exact thing. had the clips replaced on the heat shield and the vibration/humming went away.

  • my gf has a 94 Subaru Liberty and it makes a whining noise when were on the freeway. lol. but i guess thats expected of a car that old. Its done just over 300,000k and our mechanic says its still going strong. Great example of how a well looked after Subaru can reward ya.

  • Its not a heat sheild the harmonics are far too deep.

  • My girlfriends 08 Impreza makes a similar noise, but we notice it when driving on the highway and trying to accelerate in high gear (auto). It's much louder and def sounds like a heat shield or something. Subaru denies hearing the sound. It must be a common problem though.

  • nice car but bad bad video

  • damn i get that sound my impreza too!

    the dealer doesnt know where its coming from , i think they are just idiots but the noise worries me sometimes

  • the guy had it neutral, the clutch was touched

  • I have the same problem. Its not your engine mounts, its a clutch problem. Lift the revs to the point of the hum and push the clutch in... the noise will stop!
