Have hot temp, from driver side and cool/cold from passanger side. Took it to my local shop and had it flushed and what came out was a rubbery snot like black substance. Not real shore what to think as well as the mechanic.and still no better

1 thought is the approved subaru coolant additve for the head gaskets

Any thoughts

if that much rubbery snot like substance came out then i'd try flushing it a second and maybe third time.

clogged heater cores and passengers side heat loss happens in newer 05+ subaru's, a search should yield some results my recollection is limited on years/models/causes. tribecas for instance have it happen and you need to flush the heater core. it might involve actuator doors for other models....

I plan on flushing a few times, I am Baffled about what the rubbery snotty stuff is that in the system

Here's someone else who had boogers in their core...

It's not black though and there's no definitive answer in the thread about what caused it.

its time to replace the heater core ... its a common fault for cold air on the passenger side ...

Way too much work to replace. If flushing doesn't work, flush with stronger chemicals.

Stronger Chemicals?
