So I swapped my transmission with one that was supposed to be correct for my 95 LX coupe 2.2 4EAT but now it’s only working as RWD and also feels sluggish to accelerate does anyone know what could be my issue?
CV axle? Solenoid? Different gear ratios?
Thank you for any information

that seems....impossible. i'm like... 90% certain that it should be the other way around as there is a physical connection with the front and not the rear. I'm gonna say that transmission you put it was not correct. what are the transmission codes from both units? should be a sticker on top of the bell housing, starts with TZ or somesuch thing.

There is something wrong with the transmission you installed, or you need to run the impreza tcm. Information available to me right now says they are compatible, so your issue is a noodle scratcher.
