1998 Subaru Legacy review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1998 Subaru Outback Legacy.
It has a blown head gasket at 130K miles. This is after spending about $3000 on a timing belt, water pump, new right front axle (boot cracked), spark plug wires, and paying to stop an oil leak (unsuccessful). Mechanic says at least $2600 to repair engine, but probably more.
General comments?
Don't buy a Subaru with the 2.5L engine!!!
