Time and the changing seasons over the last 15 years has been touch on the rear door exterior door handles. Anyone ever replaced them? If so, how many bananas are we talkin'? Thanks for the help

So, you were using OE clamps but switched to worm drive?

Clamps are OE, circular spring-type clamps. Purchased new at parts store during rad swap. I have not used worm drive clamps. Heard they were not recommended.. maybe I confused that info. Wouldn’t tightening that connection with a worm drive clamp cause the hose to swell again and build up too...

If this title isn't the epitome of my GX... Will post pics when possible. Replaced cracked radiator last Fall '24 along with rad cap, new upper and lower hoses, clamps, coolant (duh), and thermostat. After running it for a couple days, the upper hose would swell a lot (unusual). Figured there...

Dumb question… are all your floor pans solid? Super strange question, but yah never know!

https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/frame-weight-worth-keeping.1318983/ It could just be your tires or wheel bearings or whatever.

Dunno if mine had been done in the past but currently seeming fine at 146k, 2010 base. How many bananas is the job though? From videos I've seen it seems totally bananas.

Looks like you caught it super early. I need to get me one of them bore scopes!

Yank your rad cap and tell us what the underside of it looks like or snap a photo. Same with your oil dip stick. Hoping it's just the valley plate or something similar and not what I think it could be. And I've owned plenty of Subarus that had similar symptoms, if you know what I mean.

I experienced similar issues when I bought a '99 a few years ago. Here's a list of what I checked. Steering shaft (dabbed it with green grease; not the issue) Rack (turns out this was the culprit - PO used PS fluid not ATF and it was jacked up) Pump (was fine but super old, possibly original to...

how's abouts this? Hope link works... https://www.ebay.com/itm/395565359696?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&campid=5338590836&toolid=10044&customid=cd191a04813911a46ece7cb699946de2

I've been interested in getting an OBD and Techstream for this reason. Just haven't done it yet. The OBD I have will only read simple engine codes.

Finally snapped a photo of mine. Changed radiator, hoses and clamps, and thermostat. Kept same old radiator cap, need to order one. Don’t mind the tpms light

After replacing radiator and rad cap and flushing coolant system I didn't notice any pooling coolant under vehicle and temp was good. Problem was solved. Three days later the temp gauge suddenly creeped up a few notches while driving normally, so I swung into a neighborhood and shut it down...

Hello all, Curious if folks could share a snapshot of their dash showing where their temp gauge sits when at normal operating temp. If possible, please elaborate on what parts have been replaced or added to your engine cooling system. Thank you all in advance!
