head gasket on 2008 Subaru Forester
The head gaskets have apparently been leaking oil on my 2008 Subaru
Forester with 171,000 miles on it. The mechanic where I take my car told me
last year "they are just little leaks and nothing can be done". Today I was told
the amount of oil leaking from the head gaskets has increased and they need
to be replaced. Since they have to take the engine out in order to do the work,
I was told it would be best to replace the timing belt at the same time. The
timing belt was replaced at 105,000 miles. The estimate for the work, head
gaskets and timing belt is $2600. Is that a fair price?
