Original battery gave out. Super hard starts in cold weather. Decided to just buy a new battery. When I put the new battery in, my car wouldn't start. It took like 4, six second turns of the key before it started. Now when ever I put the clutch in and brake, the RPMS drop to below 500rpms and the traction control light pops up. Its like its idling too low now. Now I remember that the ECU gets reset if the battery is off for too long, so thats what I figured happened. But I would like a clarification.

Nope, the shop did it for me. They custom fit the side skirts on since I didnt want them to drill holes in my car. They installed it for free too so I figured it'll be better for them to do anyway since I wont be installing it in this kinda weather

What do you do to reset it everyday? Seems like a pain to disconnect the battery terminals all the time. |

And it's the biggest pain, especially in -40c weather for most of the winter because the code was a temperature based cat inefficacy code. |

But this is good to know that its a simple fix. I'll start looking around for other Subi guys in my area that might be able to help. |
