Relatively new to small cars in general and have no subaru knowledge
at all. Recently acquired a 95 Outback with 5 spd manual
transmission. The cars has +200K miles. There is a strange and
fairly loud noise on downshifting and decelaration. Other than that
the car runs perfectly. There are no front end noises during tight
turns, no noise when accelerating, no noise when engaging clutch or
sitting in neutral.

Is this normal or is the engine about to fall out? Anybody have any
ideas?

Thanks

My 03 WRX trans makes a bit of noise when down shifting and decelaration. It
was much quieter after a oil change about a year ago but it seems to be
geting louder.
