Trying to be a nice uncle and buy my niece a car....she just had her first baby.

My '99 Legacy Outback is in the same situation; overheats under load at 215k miles.
I am saving money for a full swap to other used engine w top-end rebuild, new timing belt etc First estimate in the high-cost San Fransico Bay area was $4,000 for everything, all labor too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Anybody else have an opinion on the quote?? Favorite Subaru shop in Marin county?? Or within 100 miles towing of PT Reyes?? I put it out to pasture last month, and start it every week. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) But, with leather interior, new tires, heated seats and mirrors, great stereo etc I want to keep it! |
