Stalls Out
Back again, I fixed my initial problem. So the car starts up and runs at idle. This only happens during cold starts tho. Once the car is running and it warms up, it will stall out while trying to stop in gear. The only way to counteract this is by going into neutral when stopping. Anyone know potential issues that may cause this?

I have the same issue with my 2010 legacy. Although I’m not sure if it’s on warm or cold starts. But coming to a stop, sometimes harsher stops not always, and it stalls out. From what people have said it is the torque converter or something. I will probably go to a dealership but I wish I could go to a repair shop that could identify the issue even if it doesn’t show up on a computer.
Torque converter 100%. It’s exactly how our 2012 Legacy acted. Dealership should do it under warranty at least they did for us
It's only under warranty for the first 100k miles. I got mine fixed at 82k miles.
Yea I believe that’s how they fixed it for us. It took some convincing but I think that was just when that problem was exposed. 3rd quarter of 2016 i think
Yeah I bought mine from a Nissan dealership with 97k on it so it’s past it’s warranty. I was thinking of bringing to the Subaru dealership, they’ll know the car the best, but I’m worried their costs will be up charged because they are a dealership.
