Took my 99 OBW (2.5L) to the dealer for some regular service at
130,000. The car has been very well maintained and garaged. I was told that the cam and crank seals are leaking (they were already replaced at 105,000 miles), there's a slight transmission leak and the head gasket is on its way out. I'm looking at a repair bill that's about half the value of the car (I'm not going to have the repairs done). Was it unrealistic to expect the car to run longer than this without needing major engine work? Are newer Subarus with the 2.5L likely to last any longer than this? Anyone want to talk me into another Subaru or should I look elsewhere?Where I used to work, we had a fleet of Ford Tauruses that all ran well beyond 130,000 miles without needing any major engine work...
