PROCEDURE TO ADJUST THE CONCENTRATION OF THE SUBARU SUPER COOLANT
| CAUTION | Use the SUBARU Super Coolant with a 50 - 60 % concentration in order to obtain maximum antifreeze and anti-rust performance. |
To adjust the concentration of SUBARU Super Coolant according to temperature, find the proper SUBARU Super Coolant concentration in the table, and add dilution water to the SUBARU Super Coolant (concentrated type) until it reaches the proper dilution.

|---|---|---|---|
| SUBARU Super Coolant concentration | 50% | 55% | 60% |

Scheme 8
- Push the release lever to retract the push rod of the operating cylinder and check if the fluid level in the clutch reservoir tank rises or not.
- If the fluid level rises, pedal free play is correct.
- If the fluid level does not rise, or the push rod cannot be retracted, adjust the clutch pedal. Ref. to «CLUTCH PEDAL»(ref-357082-S31769080532010030800000) .
- Check the fluid level using the scale on the outside of the clutch reservoir tank (A). If the level is below "MIN" (B), inspect the clutch master cylinder, operating cylinder and hydraulic line for fluid leaks. If fluid leaks are found, repair or replace. If fluid leaks are not found, add clutch fluid to bring it up to "MAX" (C) of clutch reservoir tank. Recommended clutch fluid: Refer to «FLUID»(ref-357072-S25971422982010030800000) , RECOMMENDED MATERIALS, Recommended Materials. CAUTION: Prevent the clutch fluid from being splashed over vehicle body. If the clutch fluid is splashed over vehicle body, flush it, and then wipe it up. If any clutch fluid is spilled on the exhaust pipe, wipe off completely to prevent fires or emission of smoke. NOTE: Avoid mixing different brands of brake fluid to prevent degradation of the fluid. Be careful not to allow dirt or dust to get into the reservoir tank.
Scheme 9
- Drain the gear oil by removing the drain plugs (oil pan and clutch housing side). CAUTION: If transmission gear oil is spilled on the exhaust pipe, wipe off to prevent fires or emission of smoke. NOTE: Before starting work, cool off the transmission gear oil well.
- Replace the gasket with a new part, and tighten the drain plugs (on oil pan side and clutch housing side) to the specified torque. Tightening torque: Oil pan side 50 N.m (5.1 kgf-m, 36.9 ft-lb) Clutch housing side 70 N.m (7.1 kgf-m, 51.6 ft-lb)
- Remove the filler plug and add transmission gear oil up to the lower edge of the filler plug hole. CAUTION: Carefully refill oil while watching the level. Excessive or insufficient oil must be avoided. Recommended gear oil: Refer to «LUBRICANTS»(ref-357072-S10255364942010030800000) , RECOMMENDED MATERIALS, Recommended Materials. NOTE: Each oil manufacturer has its base oil and additives. Thus, do not mix two or more brands. Gear oil capacity: 4.1 l (4.3 US qt, 3.6 lmp qt)
- Replace the gasket with new part and tighten the filler plug to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 50 N.m (5.1 kgf-m, 36.9 ft-lb)
WHEEL ALIGNMENT OF FRONT SUSPENSION
- Check the alignment of front suspension to make sure the following items are within tolerance. Toe-in Camber Caster (Referential Value) Steering angle Ref. to «WHEEL ALIGNMENT»(ref-357084-S10659241402010030800000) .
- When the caster angle does not conform to the reference value obviously, visually inspect the following components and replace deformed parts. Suspension components [Strut assembly, cross-member, front arm, etc.] Parts connecting suspension and body
- When the toe-in and camber are out of tolerance value, adjust them so that they conform to standard value.
- When the right-and-left turning angles of tire are out of standard, adjust to standard value.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT OF REAR SUSPENSION
- Check the alignment of rear suspension to make sure the following items are within tolerance. Toe-in Camber Thrust angle Ref. to «WHEEL ALIGNMENT»(ref-357085-S02506796622010030800000) .
- When the camber angle does not conform to tolerance value, visually inspect the following components. If the deformation is observed, replace the damaged parts. Suspension components [Shock absorber, front lateral link, rear lateral link, upper arm, trailing link and sub frame] Parts connecting suspension and body
- When the toe-in and thrust angle are out of tolerance value, adjust them so that they conform to tolerance value.
