SAFETY  2011 LEGACY

4/8/10 Government safety ratings and crash tests to get stricter for 2011 models with fewer models getting 5 star rating. 
Because so many cars currently get 5 stars, especially for front impact tests, the results are no loner a real help to differentiate models.
There will be a new overall star rating that summarizes the front, side and rollover crashes in additon to the 5star ratings. Top selling models will tested first at a rate of 30-40 per year.
Tests will be done with a new 97lb female-size dummy in addition to the larger male dummy used now.
A new Pole side impact test will have the car sliding into a 10" diameter pole at 20 mph, hitting by the driver’s door behind the windshield pillar (aka A pillar).
Starting with the 2011 models, 20% of a company's cars need to meet the stricter rules, going up to 100% for the 2014 models.
NHTSA started using the 5 star ratings in 1994my, side impact tests were added for the 1997my, rollover tests based on car height and width were added for the 2001my with acual rollover tests for the 2004my.

11/10/09  Crash test - 2010 Legacy is the first car with all 4 bumper crash test damage estimates under $1,000.
'leapfrogs the competition for bumper protection' from the IIHS The highest rating IIHS has ever issued for a bumper test and the 2010 Legacy is one of only 5 cars to ever get this rating.
"The Legacy leapfrogs the competition for bumper protection," Nolan says. "These common sense bumper changes will help keep repair costs down in low-speed crashes." from IIHS.

8/27/09 Top Safety Pick- 2010 Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback are the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's newest Top Safety Pick award winners. "To qualify for Top Safety Pick, a vehicle must earn the highest rating of good in the Institute's front, side, and rear tests and be equipped with electronic stability control. Criteria to win are tough because the award is intended to drive continued safety improvements such as top crash test ratings and the rapid addition of electronic stability control, which is standard on the Legacy and Outback."

Transmission
The 6 spd manual and CVT automatic are both new. The 5speed automatic Sportshift is not.
Standard 6 speed manual
Optional  CVT automatic with paddle shifters and 6 'gears'. This transmission oil fluid does not need to be changed unless driven under very hard or frequent towing.

Manual, 6 speed
Automatic 5 speed with Sportshift
CVT transmission - what is it The Lineartronic Continuously Variable Transmission is the only automatic transmission available in 4 cylinder models. It replaces the automatic Sportshift. It was new for 2010 models.

What is a Lineartronic CVT transmission? CVT is Continuously Variable Transmission. Lineartronic is Subaru's name for their CVT.  CVT is a gearless chain drive transmission that efficiently matches RPMs and power  for better fuel economy because the engine runs at its most efficient RPM over a range of speeds. 
The Subaru CVT uses a chain and  has  'manual mode' with paddle shifters and 6 selected 'gears' for drivers who want more control or better performance and just like to play.
> Maintenance: only use Subaru CVT C-30 oil. The oil does not need to be changed unless driven under very hard or frequent towing in which case replace at 25000 miles. There is no dipstick.
> Background Subaru's 1989 Justy EVCT was the first production car in the U.S with a CVT, and Fuji has sold their technology to other companies, and they still use it in small cars in Japan. Other companies using a version of a CVT recently are the Toyota hybrids under the name Hybrid Synergy Drive (ie Prius, Highlander, Camry, Lexus etc), Honda Civic hybrid, Nissan Murano, BMW's Mini Cooper, Mitsubishi Lancer, Dodge Caliber, Jeep Compass and Patriot, Ford Freestyle, Five Hundred and Mercury Montego etc etc. (from wiki) more Subaru glossary and terms

TCS Traction Control System is part of VDC. TCS senses spinning wheels and applies the brakes to maintain traction.

Emissions:  4 cylinder models are available in either Fed or PZEV (partial zero emission vehicle)  spec.

PZEV required on all 4 cylinder Legacys with the CVT only, sold in CA, CT, NJ, NY, MA, ME, RI, VT, PA, OR, WA

ie the Legacy 2.5i and 2.5i Premium with manual transmission are not PZEV.


What is PZEV, a brief, simple summary
The EPA says a PZEV is clean running gas engine car based on emissions testing for carbon-containing compounds, oxides of nitrogen, particulate matter, and other tailpipe nastiness. 

 It is required on 4 cylinder Legacys with the CVT (not on manuals) sold in CA, CT, NJ, NY, MA, ME, RI, VT, PA, OR, WA
1. A charcoal cannister catches unburned gas left in the engine when it's turned off so it doesn't just evaporate. 
2. Fuel injectors that close tighter when they're not in use.
3. A finer mesh in the catalytic converter, as well as optimized placement of its precious metal.
4.  The engine's electronic brain is tuned to run the hot at start up to help the catalytic converter heat up so it can start doing its job faster.


PZEV emission cars are indentified on the Monroney window sticker

Hill Holder button and dash 'on' light
Hill Holder button
This redesigned for 2010 Hill Holder system is now electronic and standard on all models. 
It uses the electric parking brake. 
After the car is started, the system can be turned on by stepping on the brake and then pushing the Hill Holder button by the driver's left knee (next to the parking brake button).  A green dash light  indicates the system is on.
When stopping on a hill 5% or steeper, either going up or down the hill,  the Hill Holder activates the parking brake to briefly hold the car from rolling as the driver moves their foot from the brake to the gas pedal.

Brakes
To use in as emergency brake tap or hold the brake button down but only in an serious emergency when you cannot normally brake! This will cause your rear wheels to lock so be very careful.
The mechanical release for the electric brake if the battery is dead is under the car in front of the right rear wheel. It's an awkward process, so keep the battery charged. Dead battery brake release info

Towing  Towing a trailer- with a Legacy is not recommended. If you do tow keep the weight down around 1000lbs. Have a properly equipped trailer with brakes, Replace the CVT oil around 24855 miles if towing a lot.
Towing the car- a flatbed is always recommended when towing your Legacy. A manual transmission can be towed with all wheels on the ground behind a tow truck or motorhome for example, but never with just 2 wheels on the ground. 
An automatic or CVT can be towed with all 4 wheels on the ground in an emergency for a short distance (under 31 miles) and at very slow speed (under 20mph) but a flatbed is strongly preferred.
