are models with 2.5 turbo engine affected by head gasket problem?

Hi,

there is a lot of talk about head gasket leaks, but no one mentioned turbo engines yet. Is there any evidence that models with 2.5 turbo (Legacy GT, Impreza, STI, Baja, etc.) engine are affected by this problem too?

They pop headgaskets like horses pop farts...... Keep $1600 ready and some vacation time from work for the car being "Down" Like others have said before, If a Subaru shop does the work, they will use the same crappy quality gasket.Expect the new ones to let go in less than 80,000 miles too. You didn't say how miles you have on yours, there is a long list of things that SHOULD be done while you are in there. Read on here....TONS of info.
