Guest D1Driver Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Just bought my first Subaru....98 OBW. I think it needs a t-belt. Anyone know of a good mechanic in Columbus area who can change it for me? Don't want to be taken to the cleaners by the typical dealer service shop.

It is a 2.5. I live on the southwest side of Columbus, but I am willing to travel to save a buck or two. I just hate dealers charging $90 and hour, and charging twice-the-price for parts. I am a firm believer in going to dealer only if you have to. Would much rather hand my money to the small mechanic who appreciates his customers and actually cares.....and knows what the heck he is doing!

wave o babies Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 .....and knows what the heck he is doing!Fox knows what he's doing, hell I wasn't even sure what he was doing under the hood of this 83 I'm rollin now, but believe me. He will do what you need, and he'll do it damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest D1Driver Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Learning is definitely what I need to do. I bought a Subaru because my neighbor has two early 90's Legacy L's that both have over 200k miles on them. The bodies are rusting away, but they drive great, with no problems. The t-belts have been the only things touched on either engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86subaru Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 have all parts ready to be installed , so when miles gets down there then the job will go smooth , ebay has good priced timing belt kits , + other parts that might need to be replaced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
