How to get correct part

[albjames]

Hi All,

My 2006 outback is now marking its territory with gear oil as the drivers side gearbox drive shaft seal is shot,

How can i be sure to get the correct seal as i don't want to be stranded with out a car as I need it for work?

The main stealer up here is "Too busy to deal with this at the moment" so any help appreciated [emoji106]

Don't really know much about outback spec tbh but on impreza turbo manuals they're all the same from the 92 5 speed to the later (o2 onwards) sti 6 speed .

As I fitted the same seals in my 94 sti's 5 speed and then into the 6 speed I fitted a few years later .

You could try cross referencing part numbers for any outback drive shaft seals you can find online and if there's only one type /part number , you'd probably be ok to just order one .

 

Get a genuine subaru one though ,as most aftermarket seals and gaskets are sub standard and will probably leak again at some point
