Longevity of 2011 Outback?

Asked by rackets123 Jun 14, 2024 at 02:38 PM about the 2011 Subaru Outback

Question type: General

I have a 2011 Outback, 191,000 miles. Head gaskets just went and will be
making that repair along with timing belt. Already have done brakes, serpentine
belt, tires, water pump. How much longer will this car last and is it worth it to
make almost a $4k repair at this point?

In my opinion it's not worth putting that kind of money into a 13 year old vehicle with nearly 200,000 miles on it. You'll be better off spending the $4,000 on a newer vehicle. It's already started "nickle and diming" you. It will only be downhill from here. Time to move on! Jim

A professional compression test can tell a lot , If it's not rusting out , you have the cash and you like it then hang on to it , It's not like a new car is cheap
