If you had problems with a recently purchased new Legacy/Outback assembled in the states pitch in this thread. Lets see what the seat-of-pants meter will show.

You need to be a little more specific. Exactly what year span? Problems or problem? Does the crank seal oil leak count if you fixed it at the timing belt change interval?
I don't think the data you collect could have any statistical value, given that usenet posters are not typical users.

I don't see why not.
As I said. This is a seat of pants meter.
I'm not collecting data for the sake of typical users. There are Consumer Reports for them. Amen :-)
You also need to know who has NOT had problems. Me: 04 OBW H6 8000 miles no problems except that birds seem to like red better than other colors.
The timing chain pensioners on my 04 H-6 failed on the day of delivery. no problems since though.

Looks like those pensioners chose _way_ early retirement.

Good one florian!

04 OBW H6 no problems, 4k. Excellent car. 00 OBW no problems, 30k. Excellent car, not the power of my 04. What are you fishing for?
Opinions, before I take a big breath and plunge for a second Sub. I don't want to make a second expensive mistake and would really like to believe that "mechanic's specials" are more of an exception than the rule.
