It's the actual dealership it will be sad is they are doing that as they said they are taking out the engine and fully stripping it out .. I did try other Subaru specialist and got a similar quote just a couple hundred cheaper !
QLD Leaking Head Gasket Issue
- Thread starter Davendran Prusuthman
- Start date
I’m no expert on cars, but I did used to have a Liberty GT. Some Subaru models are known to have head gasket issues. If you’re only driving it as a weekend car, I’d assume you’re giving it a decent workout and then letting it sit idle for almost a week. As Scruff pointed out, that’s not good for wear and tear.
In terms of cost, $3k is on the higher side but it can depend on what else has to be done. I’d also think that if your model has a boxer engine this may be more expensive that an ordinary head gasket replacement.

Hi Rob
So do I have any ground with my appeal to subaru Australia if it's a common issue
No. You’re outside their warranty period, and as a ‘known issue’ you can be inferred to have bought the car capable of being reasonably aware of the issue had you done sufficient research.
