I just hope they take their time and do it carefully... AND apply the RTV when the motor is cool, and give it plenty of time to cure before testing it... |

2013 BRZ post recall issues.
2013 BRZ Stock and 86k
~500 miles since recall done I took the chance that the dealership here had 7 successful recall fixes. Yesterday after driving and it was hot it sounded like a very, very loud bird. Called subaru; said to call if any other symptoms. Today, almost stalled out at light. Shortly after, a few minutes, All lights popped on and stalled out. So far starts back up. Going to limp it home and hope it gets there and call again. BRZ’s haven’t been as affected as the FRS so took the chance, considering it ran perfectly and never a problem prior to recall I am seriously concerned. Got it back home. It kept nearly dying at every stop sign and light but didn’t stall out again. While the motor has been quiet and sounding good previous to yesterday, it again sounds like a very large, loud bird is under the hood. Sound coming from block, not belts or hoses or pulleys. The Rpms drop low, sub 400, then it catches and rights itself. Taking it in tomorrow. If need be the shop foreman who did the work will drive around with me awhile to see/feel/hear what I do. When it’s cold it sounds great and runs fine, doesn’t try to die and doesn’t have the loud bird under the hood. Adding that at times it feels sluggish or bogging with acceleration intermittently. Putting this here as others have had same issue and so it doesn’t get lost on enthusiast page. Will keep this updated. Last edited by BrianBRZ; 05-11-2019 at 02:29 AM. Reason: Added sentence, clarified rpm for accuracy |

The notion that BRZ's have been affected less, isn't really accurate, when you look at the ratio of recalled BRZ's to FRS's, it matches up pretty well.
Symptoms sound familiar. I bet the codes are related to the intake timing, probably on the RH side. fwiw, service manager mentioned to me the other day, that hey have another BRZ in post recall, going down the same path as mine. Last edited by Gunman; 05-12-2019 at 03:11 PM. |

First, I’d get the large bird out from under your hood.
Second, that noise is probably metal and a different metal touching where they shouldn’t. Push it and it may spit that bearing out and knock, or gall and seize. Gall and sieze on a manual transmission is no fun. Get it back ASAP, I’d tow it. |

Results
So the large bird is the usual chirpy issue, I should have thought of this but it’s been hot out which means it gets louder.
The shop foreman, whom I know somewhat, took the car and after spending quite a bit of time on it was very annoyed to find that the mechanic he assigned to plug in all the hoses etc. did not connect the fuel purge line and a few other connections were not seated correctly. End result is I have the car back after this scare and he went through it top to bottom himself to ensure everything is as it should be. Often the shop will have the foreman or top mechanic do all the hard work and once everything is together assign someone to finish it up. In this case nobody checked that persons work as should have been done. So for now, at 500ish miles, it is running fine now. They also flashed the ecu for the ac/idle issue which I had asked them to do in ‘14 and it was never done. At least I didn’t pay anything. Last edited by BrianBRZ; 05-11-2019 at 02:31 AM.

The chirpy issue is the oil pressure pump, may be wrong on part I’m recalling what was said. Hotter it gets outside and the motor the louder it gets. Just hadn’t heard it that loud before. In ‘16 Subaru added sound dampening around the lines and unit but changed nothing else which is why there are less complaints at that point supposedly.
Bs or not?? |

Reading this thread is like reading the Puyallup police blotter - I shouldn't be reading either one -
