Hi everyone, my cars approaching 100k miles and I would like my head gasket replaced. Subaru want £3,000 and I think it’s a bit excessive just to replace them with the sane gaskets that have known issues to begin with. May I ask if anyone knows somewhere in northwest I could maybe have it done cheaper with good gaskets like cosworth or something. Thanks 


It was only graphite gaskets on some non turbo engines that had known issues & TSB .
Subaru mls gaskets are pretty good, head design along with maintenance driving style and tune is more linked to failures .
With high mileage and if been leaking for a long time you could require more than just head gaskets, more so if been tuned.
Really need engine health assessment before considering repair options .

Sorry the engine is not showing any signs whatsoever of had gasket failure it’s just about time I had them changed before issues do occur thanks
