Have the same forester - those lights happen every time I change my oil. I usually disconnect the air sensor from the airbox, than disconnect the negative from the battery for a little, plug negative back again and than plug the sensor back. Usually, it works for me. Good luck!
My old car!! Looks so sick lowered doesn't it man? So glad you were able to return it to its former glory when I originally bought it and was cool to see how stoked you were with it. You made all of that look so easy haha. Anyway, good luck with the flip! Hope you get even more out of it!
On Subaru foresters and Imprezas from 2005-2008 there is a parking brake switch on the top side of the steering wheel. That may be the reason your rear lights stay on with the keys out of ignition!!!
nah, i think he created a short with the pressure washer in the engine bay. I have a forester myself with the same ej20 motor, used a pressure washer and my tail lights stay off completely when the head lights are on. instant regret.
One of the biggest causes of this issue is a short in the trailer hitch cables. They have a tendency to short out On literally all models at least up to the 2008 and when they do short out, the tail lights will come on and stay on. The two main fixes are trace all the hitch cable lines looking for the short or just remove the hitch harness all together. If you don't plan on towing anything, it won't matter much.
This was super cool to see! One man for everything it's impressive man. Got rid of my bugeye, traded in for a brz, now driving an S2000, looking for a Forester now as a daily. Can't get away from the Subaru rumble :)
i just bought an 04 Forester 2.5XS, and even though it's auto, i still wanna mod it. Aero kit, wheels, different roof rack, aftermarket headlights and tail lights, and a 1-2" lowered suspension. nothing crazy.
To turn of the parking lights when the ignition is off, there’s a button right above the steering wheel. It takes the hustle out of all flipping lights and ignition on and off.
Its 2021 and where I am now with a recent 2004 Subaru FXT in Obisdian Black I picked up 3 weeks ago... Im watching this for inspiration as there are so many mods I want to do to it to make it a STI FXT, but without a 6 speed transformation.
I also just got my first Subaru it's a Forester one owner automatic unfortunately looks just like yours except no sunroof got it really cheap about 450 American it only needs an axle and steering rack Yours looks real nice thanks for the tips
It’s amazing having access to a snapon scan tool when ever I need due to work but my r32 is before they even thought about it so the work one doesn’t work in it so I just diagnose shit the old fashion way :(
Love my 05 fxt. Vf39, 09 sti top mount, stage 3 pro tune, sparco wheels, cobb downpipe, swift springs on kyb struts xD amazing car for its family purpose
Keep it! It'd be cool for some off-road content. I don't see anyone off roading/modding foresters on UA-cam! Plus it could help us forester owners with mods we want to do!
For off road you’d want to raise it not lower, these guys seem more into on road ride quality and looks, I appreciate both for the right vehicle, this should have been raised imo get rid of the HKS, get a decent off road pipe on they’re still bigger than stock for decent sound but that thing is way to big. Remember he wants to flip it, but a cool offroad build say an Overland build lost cost option and then giveaway would have been cool and raised some cash, Jmo though.
pretty sure the lights are due to a fuel line. my friend had an 05 outback and those 3 lights came on all at once and he found out it was due to a failing fuel line. got it replaced and the codes all cleared
i would say no. Messed up my Mass air flow sensor when i pressure washed my engine bay. I have had a forester for 8 years...they hate pressure washers especially on electricals and lights.
i’m 14 i’m about to buy a 2003 forester, i’ve been saving for a car since i was nine slowly and i decided on this car. i’m getting it for 5000 bucks and im sure there will be plenty of work but it’s in pretty good condition and has pretty low mileage.
Nice! Back in 2009 or so I dropped my XT on Sti struts and gold 18" rotas. Didn't know how ahead of the curve I was on that one. Just noticed you're out of WA though! Where abouts?
Question I have same Subaru trying to get mine to ride exactly like this what do I need to order exactly? And second looking to install exhaust as well what exactly was this forester running?
That generation Forester still looks best - to me.
Facts
same, but i prefer the pre-facelift one
Same I was looking at getting an impreza sti until I seen the forester sti, now I’m just trying to find one😐
You're eyes need to be replaced
@@remissiveslave *your
also that's his opinion
I’m 13. This is what I’m gonna do what im older, looks so nice and have always wanted one exactly like this
Best of luck bud, I'm sure you'll find one! I've had mine for 4 years and I've loved it
Jeff Long cheers bro. One day 👊🏽
Work hard and save your money, You'll get there one day!
Good luck bro.. 💯

2004-2007 Subaru Forester generation will forever be the best version of Subaru of all time imo.

whats the exhaust setup, uel uppipe, downpipe?
nesttrrxt I believe so!
Its a mad car man, shame that it was an auto bet you could've had heaps of fun with a manual!

Please upload any video with a Subaru Forester, im obsessed with them!

Me to my dude I have owned an sf5 and now onto an sg
Deeia Awad what does he have done to it 😍
Just Boolin it’s my car it has aggressive set up
@@deeiaawad8283 yo are you based in Australia
i was so focused on the forester then switched up to his girl lmao
Dat forester looks dope, i don't mind rocking one at all 🤙

😂"Get outta my whip", love your guys relationship with eachother.
Dropping a Forester defeats the object of a Forester then it's just an estate car with no off-road ability
Check your ABS fuse in the engine bay, should have sorted the ABS and Handbrake lights issue
i just bought an 04 Forester 2.5XS, and even though it's auto, i still wanna mod it. Aero kit, wheels, different roof rack, aftermarket headlights and tail lights, and a 1-2" lowered suspension. nothing crazy.
Love the transformation.. waiting to see how you diagnosis the lights on the dash..Kenyan no 1 fan

Yea bro took me a while to figure that out on my 05 xt. Lol
Americans sure do love a Station Wagon

Editing and camera shots are top notch! Good job man!
Blacked out headlight housings, a front lip, side skirts, tint, an STi hood scoop,and it would be perfect
I also just got my first Subaru it's a Forester one owner automatic unfortunately looks just like yours except no sunroof got it really cheap about 450 American it only needs an axle and steering rack
Yours looks real nice thanks for the tips
STi Suspension isn’t 100% bolt on - you have to change out hubs and spindles as bolt pattern is different. Just WRX
Jeremy Mac 2004 sti bolts right up
Alejandro Rodriguez he said 02-07 lol

150K ALMOST THERE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK BRO❤️
The brake light is on because the rubber under the dash is worn out. Look along the brake pedal and glue a piece of rubber back on.
Will a 01 Forester exhaust fit on an 03 ? What would you take off an 01 to put on 03 Forester X ? Engine bay is spotless on the 03.
How about timing belt service... head gasket???
Subaru ONLY oil filter....there was another post about a relief valve that OEM has but not aftermarket...
That Tacoma though. Sick Forester build man, love these cars
pretty sure the lights are due to a fuel line. my friend had an 05 outback and those 3 lights came on all at once and he found out it was due to a failing fuel line. got it replaced and the codes all cleared
So what was done? Changed wheels, suspension, and an exhaust? Looks the same to me.
3:20 isnt that tire on the wrong way? you want to push water out not in :P
i love my 04 fxt. the XT trims should only come in a 5sp manual, i hate the AT trans, it feels like it never knows what gear it should be in.
I'm looking at a 03 forester xs, has 236k miles but all maintenance has been done,new tires,shocks, there wanting 2500 u think it's worth it
is this a STi swapped forester?? Sounds just like a STi, probably just UEL Headers.
What kind of exhaust did he have on the forester? I just bought an 04 forester and it looks like a grandma car. I need to make it look and sound mean.
Bro! You shaved off 5 years when cleaning that beard! Dude I need that forester! Too bad I’m in Atlanta! Great content like always!
Hey dude you probably know this now but it could have been the brake light switch. It will trip those 3 lights.
Is it safe to pressure wash your engine without covering anything up?
Yep if anything doesent run right can just spray wd40 on the connectors to plugs and usualy fixes it anyway, most plugs have water proof gromets tho
i would say no. Messed up my Mass air flow sensor when i pressure washed my engine bay. I have had a forester for 8 years...they hate pressure washers especially on electricals and lights.
No
@@pauldadzie6991 had no issues on my 2011 wrx did it like 4 times
When he’s shaved he looks like a buff Matt Maran.
I have a 2003 cross sport forester, Bro if you can do another forester project that would be sick asf
Yeees! Love the Transformation Videos
i’m 14 i’m about to buy a 2003 forester, i’ve been saving for a car since i was nine slowly and i decided on this car. i’m getting it for 5000 bucks and im sure there will be plenty of work but it’s in pretty good condition and has pretty low mileage.
Hey Dave's is where I took my '07 forester! haha
looks awesome, the only thing I would different is take the Subaru emblem off the front grill
Nice! Back in 2009 or so I dropped my XT on Sti struts and gold 18" rotas. Didn't know how ahead of the curve I was on that one. Just noticed you're out of WA though! Where abouts?
taking notes from the opposite coast. sick work!!!
front tyres on back to front! directional tyre facing backwards. NICE?
do you know if a 2005 forester xt engine will fit in a 2006 forester????
Any issues with rubbing or need fender rolled?
Dope!!! Would not mind training my 03 maxima for an 08 forester.
I'm about to get a 04. I live in Bellingham. You close to me? Got any parts??
Hey man check the wheel speed sensors, mine did the same thing with the brake and ABS lights and one of my sensors were bad
7.12 got me in stitches 🤣🤣🤣👌👌
Found a 98 forester for 700, turns over but 1day it just didnt turn on anymore. Shld i buy?
Did you check the abs/tcs fuse? I know if my genny throws all 3 that’s the cause.
I couldn't see myself driving one of these,unless it was the STI converted wagon.They do look good though.Nice Pick up!
They do make a forester sti
Same . Slammed is nice but basic so unless pushing 300+ i wouldn’t want one
15:01 FOZ MAFIA. Love my 04 ultimately wanna do an EJ207 sti swap on it
Why the 04 xt has the ej257 already..
How much for the forester? Actually interested?
RESPECT ! I admire to people like you - who have balls to live what they love... Wish that I have that guts and support...
Wait does it work with a forester x20?
This is a quick flip what bro this is like a dream forester of mine
Plz maka a STI version of Forester. It's so much things you can do with this Subi ))
Is it okay to have running water on engine and alternator?
You are fast asf at aesthetically building a car 😂
I have the same car and wanna get the xt hood but need the right color silver. It’s an 08, is it just called metallic silver?
That is one fresh Forester. I hate the back end on that year though
This makes me want to sell my STi and get a Fozzy!
Did you have to use any spacers on those wheels?
Am about buy the same car can you tell me the wheel setup because that’s the same thing I want to do it my forester your videos are great
Is it safe to wash the alternator?
What size Iboc springs?
Like how much drop?
Also if you don’t mind me asking did you order springs that’s were made for a WRX since they’re WRX struts or did you order springs for a forester
Hi I’m looking to buy 2002 Subaru foster what you guys think?
So it’s only the 04 Sti struts that bolt on or 04-07?
You didn't just jack that thing up from the oil pan, did you?
FUBAR User many Subaru’s have a jack point right behind the oil pan I’m sure he used that jack point
very nice work on it. by any chance you know the name of the wheels
Was the abs not just due to a sensor? 👍🏽
Does the 02-07 WRX sway bars fit too?
What do you use to clean your engine bay ?
Slowly becoming a Subaru enthusiast,bro you rock 💯💯..
Check the fuse box for the abs mine does it
You did a great job man, looks great!
what’s the average price for a forester xt turbo??
Hey man! You gal is adorable! Reminds me of an old gf I had. The dark hair and blue eyes is a great combo. Props!
Please share link where to buy the XXRs. Thank you!!
Question I have same Subaru trying to get mine to ride exactly like this what do I need to order exactly?
And second looking to install exhaust as well what exactly was this forester running?
I have a question I have a 2010 forester x what year is it used for sti lower
Most of the time it'll be the brake booster being stick or need adjustment you got lucky since it was a easy fix....
Plz tell me that’s a weak mocha from D&D and not a hazel nut or Carmel.
Where did you source your exhaust and how did you install it ?
After watching this video i bought a 2006 xt, swapped the engine for a wrx 2.5 ltr one an lowered it.
Really enjoy your vlog here man
Gas cap. I had the same thing happen on my Legacy drove to the dealer and they said it will throw all kinds of dash lights.
Check your brake pads and brake level that might be the cause of those lights
Is it still for sale? I’m interested in getting one.
Would ej22 headers bolt onto my 07’ 2.5 xt sport
Please gift me that forester bana ...... seems easy for you guys to get a clean SG9 there.
Is that a 06 or 08? And which site is it listed on?
