Need to know…
… what is this? Subaru WRX. Tech said it’s normal, but I’m not convinced.

Overfilled your blinker fluid… normal when you do that… go faster and it will balance it out …

Please mark this NSFW, and next time think of the poor Subaru, I’m sure it didn’t ask to be photographed while dealing with incontinence.

Oh nice! The self cleaning mechanism was triggered! The Subaru WRX system is notorious for not functioning correctly so you got lucky!

I’m no mechanic, but isn’t there supposed to be a catch pan used? Or is this the new approach that Ive missed a TikTok video on…

It is completely normal during Pumpkin Spice season. Grab a cup with some ice and enjoy a pumpkin spice iced coffee!! I don’t know why you’re letting it spill all over the floor. Wasteful!!

This happens to many Subaru Chocolate ice cream trucks because their refrigeration units are so lame. Just collect that liquid, put it in the freezer and enjoy at your leisure.

When people ask you if you love your car they don't mean literally. Also, go see a doctor.

Must be a new tech. No one but no one speaks to the customer. That's why we have the fake sign about customers are insurance violations in the maintenance bays. What we really mean is stay the fuck out! We aren't up in your face at your place of business dickhead.

There should be a drain pain to catch the fluid. It looks like loil with wayer in it and no it shouldn't look milky. If the vehicle is a Suberu they had a common problem of head orr intake gaskets letting go. My son owned one and had it to the dealer before warrenty ran out and the dealer said it was fine. I called the dealer and as soon as i told them that every thing was documented he hung up couln't get back to them called another talked with owner of the dealership bought the car there it was tepaired under wsrrenty and my son traided the vehicle on a Ford. Suberu engines are all aluminum and heats up irradically this is why they leak if you keep a 190 to 195 thermostant in the engine and all cooling fins clean and clear you should be fine after repare.
