I used Amsoil cvt fluid
Subaru Legacy parts reviews
CVT price is pretty good. I paid 375 a few weeks ago for mine to get done.
Struts are Koni yellows made in Holland. I am confident they are higher quality than most anything else off the shelf.
Head gaskets. You're on the cusp of a very expensive and very necessary repair if it has not been done already. I "got a steal" on a 2001 Legacy wagon years ago. 130,000 miles. The head gaskets went at 140,000 and I was not in a financial position to have the car fixed. Absolutely loved the car.
I had a dark blue 1997 2.5GT five-speed sedan for a few years. I really liked that car a lot. Not fast per se but it handled well, was comfortable, and looked great.
Had Greenstuff prior and honestly liked more. I'll be using Greenstuff again next time
I seem to get 45k km from each full set of Goodride SA07s (215/45/ZR17). This is on a Subaru Legacy that spends most of its time above 80kph.
I ran two sets of nexen su1 across 80kkm on a 10 yo + Subaru legacy 3.0r a few years ago.
They were fine. Good grip in the wet. Only grumble I had was they were a bit noisy
This happened to me during rush hour on a busy street! 2020 Legacy, they told me it was a known issue with the battery and replaced it for free. It was an incredibly stressful morning though.
The auto start/stop failed to start the car today while waiting in a left hand turn lane at a red light in traffic. Potentially dangerous situation for anyone. Fortunately the person behind me got out of his car and pushed my car across two traffic lanes to the right curb. The Subaru dealer told me last week when I had the 42k mile maintenance done that the battery was fine based on a battery test. I had specifically asked for the battery to be checked because the starts sounded weak. Now I’m back at the dealer after the failure incident and the diagnoses is a bad battery. It is not safe to have the car automatically shut down on the road when the battery does not have the power to auto start.
