Ya but even in a 13 year apart test it feels the exact same when compared to my legacy and the only real noticable thing was the fact that the engine was alot quiter when u hammered it in the forester where as with my legacy u hear the engine roar, but otherwise highway speed and city all sounded the same. We even tried the 2.5l with turbo and we floor it nothing till like 4000rpms whats the ppoint with all that turbo lag.

But u know how i said the 2006 forester i test drove wasn't torquey well it could also be the drive ratio right? ANd yes aerodynamics, but i still love my 93 leg and i sank $10,000 CAN into it to make it exactly like new,and a little better. Although im still running the original 2.2l with 285,000km and it feels like day one (well i was young when we got the car so this is my dad talking). As you can tell im going to push my subaru for atleast another 13 years, through high school, university or collage, and a little bit of life.

i beleive 2000 to 2002 has headgasket issue it was the first gen 2.5l engines but 2004 2006 im sure is alright. By the way u think 1000 is alot to spend? i had spent 3000 to get my tranny fixed like brand new, however im talking canadian funds. But u really need to love your subarus to spend this much.

Ya i doubt the temp sensor. I love my dealer. But i remember one dealer i hate them. I only go to dealers acually owned by subaru. ANd that looks nice(lol). I suggest another dealer. I just preffer the dealer just because they only work with subarus. ANd i have the worst luck with mech. shops. They dont know what there looking at. These cars arent built like a GM or ford or chrysler there built complex. But if u dont mind waiting for someone to reply u may. Im sure someone will say a knock sensor O2 sensor theres are thousands of sensors in your car. Oh and i dont know if they test air leaks. But i doubt it. All they do is stick a hose up ur muffler(my interpretation).
