I have a dealer estimate of about $2k for a complete engine reseal...all seals and gaskets, including the head gasket (which has a small coolant leak). About 1600 of this is labor.
An independent Subaru mechanic says the head gasket is so labor intensive he recommends a rebuilt engine It's hard to believe this would be less than repairing mine, which has 107K miles, but I am wondering if there is good reason to spend the moneyt for a rebuilt engine vs rebuilding mine?
