1998 Subaru Legacy GT review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Crank seal leaked.
Front strut leaking oil needs replaced.
Replaced broken Power antenna.
General comments?
All Subaru's have a dead spot from second gear to third.
Subaru's are know for leaking oil, mostly from the cams.
One thing Subaru could greatly improve on is excessive interior noise.
Subarus all wheel drive is very good on any weather surface.
