Which 2.5L engine prone to Head Gasket Failure


Recommended Posts

I just bought a 01 legacy sedan GT Ltd. I love the car. Is my engine prone to H.G. failure?

 

What can I do to increase life of H.G.

 

I have had subaru's for 10 yrs. Never have I had engine problems

 

Thank you for your assistance.

Steve,

 

Thanks so much for your response. I appreciate the time you took to post the link.

 

It appears that my 01 legacy is prone to an external HG leak. I will follow up to ensure that the coolant conditioner is installed.

 

Any other advise would be helpful.

 

Thanks,

 

PS: Is it a serious enough issue to sell/trade the car. Just bought the car. It has 65,000 Miles. It was dealer maintained. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
