Search for my post regarding OEM stud planned obsolescence. A Subaru field engineer told me they are designed to have a limited lifespan. I don't remember what that is off the top of my head.

Ya, find a set of replacement ARP studs and get a long handled torq stick (wrench). Jumping on a lug wrench is likely a recipe for bad news, similar to using an impact to put lugs on. Swapped all my...

I've had them on other street cars before and didn't hate them either. The CSG CP's seem like the best choice, but $720 before tax and shipping is more than I wanted to spend.

Serious question. When you say you turned off TC, was it with a quick push, or did you hold it down until both lights illuminate? Takes 3-5 seconds, I don't remember exactly.

The order of operation is important for the worst case scenario with dry lines but it works in all cases. Typical best practice from forever ago.

A light coat of a lithium grease would be best. Don't get carried away to the point it pick up and holds contaminates though. It sucks when you get sand in your lube!
