Head gasket OEM Honda or OEM Subaru
Reviews
The Tig won't need head gaskets at ~150k like every other subi does. The TSI pretty much has reliability nailed down now, IMHO. Change the oil and drive.
Pros: reliability nailed down
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
Mileage: 150000 km
Head gasket, typical Subaru issue.
Cons: typical issue
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mine went at 180k and took the engine with it due to loss of oil pressure.
Cons: failed at 180k, engine damage
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Mileage: 180000 km
My 2006 head gaskets were leaking prior to 130k. Ticking time bomb in my opinion.
Cons: leaking prior to 130k, ticking time bomb
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 130000 km
Mine went at 160K so it’s coming soon. The single layered graphite that is on there now will always wear out quicker with time. It’s a “design flaw” and will always go out quickly.
Cons: failed at 160k, design flaw, wears out quickly
Mileage: 160000 km
the EJ25D, famous for blowing its head gasket and mixing oil and coolant inside the motor (in-laws had that happen, twice).
Cons: prone to blowing, mixes oil/coolant
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
