My girlfriend's '01 Subaru Forester is just a jankheep. I just replaced the front rotors and pads, and noticed the half-shaft was dead. All four shocks are dead and one spring is showing some worrying signs of penetrative rust. The automatic trans shifts worryingly hard despite having fresh fluid and the engine has developed worrying, clattering noise I initially thought was a loose heatshield but I haven't been able to pin down. All the window and door seals have perished and the clearcoast is mostly stripped away, with rust spots peeking out on the edges of some of the sheet metal. Try to keep it running, with no garage access; or convince her to start trying to somehow find a replacement?

Yesterday was 98F (36.6C) with 88% humidity. Pretty much no wind all day. This is typical hot for this time of year in the area. A/C is a MUST.
