In the 02's, they used old technology. Basicly took the tranny from the 2.5 RS and threw it in the wrx w/o any modifications. That tranny has been used since about 98'. It just can't hold up to today's hp in cars. I forget where I read this, so don't quote me on it. Try and find an 03' with low miles.

They'll find an excuse to void your warranty if you change your wiper blades... Bov are ok though. I haven't been to the dealer since my 15k checkup, 5k/1 year ago.
