Well, just got finished talking to SOA re piston slap in my 99 Outback. At
first the rep. agreed that two pistons should be replaced ( 2 & 4) Then they
said that there are no corrective pistons for my Phase I engine and refuse to
replace the block even though other people have had that done. Their answer to
me is basically "live with it" The SOA rep said his 04 makes the same noise.
But his goes away, mine doesn't. So it would seem that anyone considering a
Subaru should be cautious. Never again for me!! Sorry for venting
