AWD Function

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Subaru Forester. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If "tight-corner braking" occurs when the steering wheel is fully turned at low speed:

  1. Determine the applicable trouble code and check the corresponding transfer duty solenoid for improper operation.
  2. If the solenoid is operating properly, check transfer clutch pressure.
  3. If oil pressure is normal but "tight-corner braking" occurs:

Check the transfer control valve for sticking, and the transfer clutch facing for wear. See TRANSFER CLUTCH  .
