Ranger83 Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 Dropped off the baby sitter Saturday night and noticed the mileage on my '97 OB was 123,455. Drove an extra block or two to get 123456. I approached this mileage cautiously, since I was sure that the [original] head gaskets on this 2.5l engine were going to jump out from under the hood!

FillG Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 I just hit 100,000 a couple weeks ago. Woohoo! When I get to 111,000 I'm gonna reset my trip odometer so I can get a picture with 111,111 on the regular odo and 111.1 on the trip odo.

CROSSTBOLT Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 To whom it may concern: I was right: we are just a little nuts about our Subarus! OK, REAL nuts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger83 Posted December 24, 2003 Author Share Posted December 24, 2003 Here it is. Next 234,567 I called my garage today and told him that all people talk about on this board was the detonation of head gaskets on 2.5l Subaru engines, and would he run the tests on it at the next oil change (I had an oil analysis done at 65K). He said, "We'll do them if you tell us to - but we don't see it happening...." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
