Research notes

Caveats and conflicts (2)
  • Chart codes are market specific; US/CA codes used. JDM and EU codes differ (e.g. TY856UB1KA JP STI MY08-14, TY856UG1MA EU). Subaru parts catalog (parts.subaru.com) is Cloudflare-blocked so no OEM catalog confirmation. Wikipedia gives TY856UB1KA for MY08-14, which the chart assigns to JDM; chart's US code preferred.
