Hello all,
I'd like to get a used Subaru. Both head gaskets went on my 98 Outback at 185K miles. Up until them it was a great car. From poking around the net I've learned that the problem was wide spread in the DOHC 2.5 engines. But there seems to be conflicting info out there concerning the SOHC 2.5. Some sites say that the 2.5 SOHC experiences 'external' head gasket leaks and that the problem is found from 2000 - 'present'
What do you all recommend? I will probably be looking at a SOHC around
2000 - 2002 with around 125K miles on it. Model doesn't really matter to me (except non-turbo)Thanks very much for the info.
