Diesel engine knocking noise

Is there any other outback owners who have been having problems with the diesel engine?

My outback was making a very loud knocking noise on start up after about 30k miles. I was told it is just the noise it makes. I am now on 80k with the same noise and have been told I need new injectors at a cost of £4000.

Although reported well within warranty Subaru have washed their hands of the problem.

My advise is don't buy a diesel Subaru.

Hi mate welcome to S.O.C

Is there anyway you could record it making the noise and upload it on to youtube ?

It could be just one of the standard knocks they do seem to carry from what I have heard from other outback owners or a bit of piston slap. :)
