Any other SVXs here?

[jacare]

Just bought by first Subaru, and it's great apart from the gearbox (advice needed). But it's an SVX- are there any other owners here? A problem shared is a problem solved...

Not any other svx owners I don't think. Svx are quiet rare. They have a flat 6 engines I think.

yup flat six engines - not sure if they have same gearbox as a legacy??

Supposedly it is the same box, also found in the Forester and Nissan Pathfinder. It's the 4EAT, so not too rare.

That's good then, probably the easiest thing to do would be to source a 2nd hand box and swap it out

Yea just ignore me

 

Sound 👍

Brilliant!

Here's a picture of one end of the gearbox innards after a slight cough at 70 mph- a crucial bit of the thing at the end of the 'box (technical term) had all its coggery sheared off...

wow - a little oil contamination then
