problem #1

Mar 012018

Forester X 2.5L

  • Manual transmission
  • 147,000 miles

Oil leak went unnoticed but oil and filter changes were done with full synthetic and at ever 5k miles. The leak caused a bad ticking in the engine while driving that was said to be a rod bearing failure and the engine would need to be replaced.
