Featured Replies

As it says on the tin please folks - is the 2003-2008 Outback 3 litre auto belt or chain driven?

 

Thanks ever so  :)

I suspect it may be chain driven, but would be good if an owner could confirm this  :)

6 cylinder will be chain .

Hi all,

 

I'm a Subaru Owners club virgin :D,i've just joined as it happens.

To answer the question about the 3.0 Outback,they are chain driven,!Removed! good engines as well !!

No cambelt to worry bout.

I've owned 4 over the past 10 years,and ForestersTtribeca's and i'm back to a 2003 -3.0 H6 model after selling my Tribeca last year due to redundancy/retirement.

 

Hope that helps the asker of the question,

Hi to all, and i'm looking forward to joining in other conversations ;)
