01 QMR OF THE MONTH
We are pleased to announce this month’s Winner of QMR of the Month:
Daniel Graas-Hernandez from
Premier Subaru of Fremont in Fremont, CA
Daniel’s award-winning QMR outlined his diagnosis and repair of a 2018
Outback 3.6R which was towed in for being unable to restart after losing
power while driving. As often happens, the car started normally for
Daniel when he began his diagnosis but, there were DTCs P1603 and
P1604 stored in memory along with the CEL on. He was able to drive
vehicle over 20 miles with no issues. After some preliminary checks,
Daniel left the vehicle overnight, restarted it cold the next morning and,
within about 10 minutes of idling, the vehicle shut off and reset the
P1604 code. He tried to restart the engine but experienced extended
crank time along with a repeated start / stall condition. Using the SSM4,
Daniel performed a close inspection of the engine data while the hard
starting condition was occurring. He found the fuel injection pulse values
were extremely erratic. His next step was to verify the related ECM
I/O signals. While performing a wiggle test on crank sensor’s engine
harness connector, the engine immediately stalled. After restarting, he
duplicated the test and the engine stalled again. Daniel inspected the
harness connector pins closely and found no trouble. He was able to
get the engine to stall by moving the body of the sensor slightly toward
the passenger side. No abnormalities were found after removing it for
a closer inspection. Daniel then proceeded to swap the suspect crank
sensor with a known good part and after performing the same test again,
was unable to duplicate the stalling condition. Going one step further
and completing his “A-B-A” test, he reinstalled the original sensor and
confirmed the stalling condition again. Daniel concluded the sensor’s
internal failure was temperature-related and after replacing it with a new
part and retesting the data, normal operation was restored.
In appreciation for going the extra mile and sharing his experience with
us, Daniel will be receiving a $500.00 Snap-On gift card from his Field
Service Engineer:
A $500.00 Snap-On gift card.

01 SUBARU TECHNICIANS HONORED AT ASE ANNUAL MEETING
Fifty-two automotive professionals were recognized on November 14, 2018, at the Fall Board of
Governors meeting of the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) held at Pier
Sixty-Six Hotel and Marina in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The annual awards banquet spotlights
top scorers on the ASE Certification Tests. Forty-one companies from both OEM and Aftermarket
segments sponsored the individual Technician recognition awards in the Auto, Truck, Collision, Parts
and Service categories, along with awards for automotive instructors. In addition to looking for top
scores on ASE tests, award sponsors examine on-the-job excellence, community service and other
factors when selecting honorees.
These ASE annual awards spotlight top scorers on the ASE Certification tests from among the ranks
of the approximately quarter million ASE certified professionals nationwide. Subaru is proud to
have two Technicians, Dan Nelson and Abraham Giles, honored at this event. Dan Nelson, an ASE
Certified Automotive Technician at Larry Miller Subaru in Boise, Idaho, was honored with a national
achievement award as the Subaru/ASE Master Automobile Technician of the Year. Abraham Giles,
an ASE Entry Level Certified automotive apprentice at Shortline Subaru in Aurora, Colorado, was
honored with a national achievement award as the Subaru University/ASE Automobile Technician of
the Year. Presenting the awards were Dan Vespertino, Director, Service Technical and Ken Benson,

01 TECHLINE CASE FOLLOW UP
We would like to remind you of the importance of following up with us to update or close open Techline
cases. To those of you who work hard to keep your number of open cases minimized, we thank
you and really appreciate your efforts. The information provided back to us has been invaluable. We
understand everyone is busy, and time spent on the phone cuts into your productivity. But, keeping
the lines of communication open and flowing is essential and mutually beneficial. To help streamline
the process of calling the Techline, always get a case number and the name of the Representative
you speak with and be sure to record both of them for future reference. In an effort for us to help you,
please keep these points in mind:
• ALWAYS get the name of the Techline Representative you speak with
• ALWAYS get a case number
• ALWAYS follow up
• ALWAYS close your cases
To close a case when the concern is resolved, call 1-866-782-2782, select Option 3 for Techline,
press 1 to acknowledge the disclaimer, and press Option 8 to leave your message. You can also
close cases by emailing tech@subaru.com. Whether emailing or calling be sure to include your name,

hear from Subaru and until we do, there is nothing more we can do.” It is the retailer’s responsibility to
follow up with Techline.
Not sure if you have Pending Cases?
There is a report located on Subarunet to help you identify if your retailer has Pending Retailer Update
cases. Simply go to Subarunet > Service Operations & Technical > Reports – Techline > click on the
most recent date to view your “Pending Retailer Update” cases.
As always, your help and cooperation are essential to make this happen. Thank You!
THE RADIO KEEPS PLAYING AND A “TURN OFF ENGINE BEFORE EXITING” MESSAGE
APPEARS- WHY? 01
If the ignition on a Push-Button Start car is switched OFF before
the shift selector is placed in Park, the ignition mode changes to
ACC mode as indicated by the orange LED on the START button.
In this case, the radio remains on and a message will appear in
the combination meter display stating “Turn Off Engine Before
Exiting” even though engine is already OFF and the driver’s door
is opened. This is a normal operating characteristic. A similar
condition may occur if there is a concern with park switch or park
switch signal at the time the ignition is switched off. This condition
can easily be alleviated by starting the engine and shutting it back
off again while keeping the selector in Park.

03 SELECTABLE SHIFT FORK IDENTIFICATION MARKS
Split case manual transmission shift forks should be checked and adjusted any time internal
transmission service is performed. Shift forks are identified by stamped numbers, or lack of stamped
numbers located near the roll pin hole. See below photo of selectable 1-2 shift forks.
3-4 and 5-6 are also selectable. Marks may be in a different area, but the mark will ALWAYS be
stamped into the fork.
06 TAP OR CLICK -TYPE SOUND HEARD WHEN COMING TO A STOP- 2019MY ASCENT
The Techline has received a small number of inquiries regarding a single “tap” or “click” -type sound
occurring just as the vehicle comes to a stop. The sound has been duplicated when using a “firm” level
/ amount of brake pedal pressure when stopping in both forward and reverse directions. The cause
has been identified as the change in friction coefficient between the brake pad and the brake rotor.
This sound is a normal operating characteristic, it has no effect on brake system performance. After
confirming proper vehicle braking operation and all braking components are assembled as designed,
no attempt should be made to address it should a customer concern arise.

07 2019MY FORESTER, DRIVER MONITORING SYSTEM (DMS) INOPERATIVE *UPDATE*
A small number of field reports have been received with a concern involving the DMS system
being inoperative. One of these reports stated a DTC U0156 for Lost Communication was stored
in multiple modules. In addition, the seat memory feature was also found to be inoperative. After
performing extensive electrical diagnostics, the root cause was traced to a loose harness connector
located behind the lower exterior trim cover of the driver’s door mirror assembly. After re-seating the
connector and making sure it was fully locked in place, all systems returned to normal operation. The
photo below shows the loose connector.
*UPDATE: A production change was made to the routing of the wiring harness starting with
VIN KH452339.
NG OK
12 SNOWFLAKE TYPE DAMAGE TO GLASS
Damage resembling a snowflake inside glass
panes is caused by application of excessive
heat to the glass such as during the application
of window tint. This type of damage is not a
matter for warranty coverage.

articles/24000009505-where-can-i-report-problems-with-the-map-in-here-wego-
15 UNEXPECTED / ABNORMAL STOP WHILE OPERATING REMOTE ENGINE START
When an owner uses the MySubaru mobile application to start the vehicle engine remotely more than
once without starting the vehicle normally they may receive an email from MySubaru stating there was
an unexpected or abnormal stop. This is due to runtime restrictions built in to the Telematics system.
This is a normal operating characteristic and no attempt should be made to repair it.

- CEL Doctor: The ANCEL AD310 is one of the best-selling OBD II scanners on the market and is recommended by Scotty Kilmer, a YouTuber and auto mechanic. It can easily determine the cause of the check engine light coming on, quickly read and clear diagnostic trouble codes, read live data & hard memory data, view freeze frame, I/M monitor readiness and collect vehicle information. Instead of taking car to mechanic shop, you can use it to check the trouble code and show code definition by yourself.
- Sturdy and Compact: Equipped with a 2.5 foot cable made of very thick, flexible insulation. It is important to have a sturdy scanner as it can easily fall to the ground when working in a car. The AD310 OBD2 scanner is a well-constructed device with a sleek design. It weighs 12 ounces and measures 8.9 x 6.9 x 1.4 inches. Thanks to its compact design and light weight, transporting the device is not a problem. The buttons are clearly labelled and the screen is large and displays results clearly.
- Accurate Fast and Easy to Use: The AD310 scanner can help you or your mechanic understand if your car is in good condition, provides exceptionally accurate and fast results, reads and clears engine trouble codes in seconds.
