Also, as far as I know, it was only DOHC 2.5 Subies that had leaky heads for a while, not all of them-certainly not my neighbors 2.2 with over 300K miles! I only used one bottle of the "coolant conditioner", maybe I should dump another one in there-it was only $2.50 a bottle.
hey jeff all the subies even the old 1.8 and 2.2 had problems , just not as bad as both of the 2.5L did even the SOHC and the DOHC. I think they improved them in 2006 . On vannies it normally will take at least 2 bottles of the subie stuff to work and even then I have seen some where nothing other than fixing them worked. later mark d |
