It feels to me like it might be worse in reverse, but it's subjective, I am not 100% certain that is true.
At normal speeds the car is very good, I only feel this at low speeds, and only with the wheel cranked.
Is this normal for a Subaru? Or is this a symptom of a mechanical AWD issue?

Kinda normal for any make when in 4WD/Low on pavement.....Try it in 2WD and now worries if problem goes away....
