- Rattles OCCASIONALLY when shifter is in Neutral. Example, if I'm coming to a red light I put it in neutral and glide to the light and sometimes the rattling noise happens. I can't ever get it recorded or mock it for the dealer, but I just got this video from the "Flywheel Rattle" thread http://s421.photobucket.com/user/whs..._1331.mp4.html

- I just got my first oil change, and after a day the car started getting harder to shift. I never had to push the clutch all the way to the floor. Now I have to, mainly 1st-3rd gear. When I go into 1st it feels like it wants to go into reverse and gets a grindy feeling when I shift. I think they topped off all my fluids, not sure if that would have anything to do with it but I only have 6,300 miles and got the car in July '13. Someone told me they shouldn't have topped off all the fluids.

- "Clutch Engagement" issue - I watched the videos and I have the same clicking noise in this video that was posted http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11266.

Anyways, anybody else have/had these issues?
No issue for me regarding the clutch, but my window does have a scratch on the passenger side. Supposedly this is a common occurrence with certain subarus. I saw somewher that you can use toothpaste on the scratched glass. ??? Now I'm not sure how that works, but I'll leave the search and find up to you if you're interested.

Also there was a thread I saw on a subaru forum regarding the use of faux fur on the glider pads that hold the window in place.

I haven't done this yet personally, but I will try to cover over the old pads with some felt when I get a chance.

There's a thread in this forum somewhere regarding the scratched window, I think its filed under "squeaking window" or something like that. It might be helpful for you. Good luck .
