johnb102 Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 My 95 Legacy LSi wagon has only 70K miles, but at 10+ years I was thinking it is time to replace hoses, etc. My shopping list includes: Radiator Upper and Lower Radiator Hoses Thermostat Heater Hoses Heater Control Valve Is there anything else that is part of the cooling system that should be replaced at the same time? Should I stick with Subaru parts from the discount Subaru dealer online or are after market parts just as good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 ive never seen a heater control valve go bad, how is the water pump. I always got my radiators from raidiator.com i like them good prices and they will adive you if a betteor bogger raditor will fit in the car then stock. i like them. You may also want to inspect your colling fan motors and see how they look and spin. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setright Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 John, stick with Genuine Subaru parts. They are very high quality - they did last ten years after all! The only parts I swap with non-Sube parts are the front brake discs and pads. Subaru parts aren't bad, but I take my car on tracks and need the extra performance.
