    blown headgasket welcome to the blow headgasket club have had this senario 20 tims this year it pushes the coolant out becuse cly preshure is 175-200 psi pushing agansit 12 psi rad preshure the combustion leaks into coolant sestem and over preshures the rad cap this is what you are seeing

    The headgasket denial runs deep no one wants to blame them BUT ME lol but is always the headgasket most times is because the rad failed or was overheated on a coolant fill at some point in its life

    6 broken awds in five speeds in one month sounds like got a bad trans unit the rear berrings go and tears the awd apart check for meatal in the oil or any tiny bitts. the ujionts are replacabble. pn 1-0430 neapco ujiont. Anyway of the 6 i dd 5 were 01-04 outbacks all bad awd seems more commen on outbacks as they are heavyer cars. Also i put 4.5 L of oil in them keeps the awd in oil all the time and makes trans less likly to fail. Have determined that they die from long downhills all the oil ends up in front of trans and backend runs dry overheating the awd unit untill it pops the snapring and eats itself

    oil preshure check min 10 psi hot at idle if higher engine is ok if lower do bottom end List headgasket x2 seporater plate x1 front crank seal x1 front cam seals x4 must be brown subaru ones valve cover gasket set intake gaskets ex gaskets plugs waterpump/ thremostat subau stat only coged idler or timing belt kitt timing belt. MUST surface heads check block for damage and burning on lower part of fire ring and make shure Cam buckets go back in exact holes they came out of and that they have adaquite clearance to tight will cause missfires

    So see the reverse idler gear right between it and the front case should be a 1/4 inch brass spacer washer this wil prevent reverse kickout and make reverse 70 % stronger I putt one in every case make a bigg difference

    Headgaskets always the headgaskets were heads planed ? I a'm constantly redooing headgasket jobs that people/ shops did poorly or got wrong of the 20 ej2.5ds i did this year 15 had had heads done less than 50000kms previosly they are so picky on the surfaces is very hard to get a good seal. This is why i bought my own head surfacer so i can get the best surface posibble when doing heads. And 90 % have burns on lower fire ring surface more than 2 thow deep

    Down hill yes start up mabee slightly for a few seconds but lots of oil and not stoping smoking rings. Ex get alot of damaged valve engines 3 or more bent valves even runing on 2-3 cly valves bent guides seals damged no smoke just pop pop pop out the ex yes a bad valve seal or guide / valve could cause oil burning but not alot just minor oil burning. When they sitt over night if rings are bad at all the oil slips past the lower part of oil ring and gets on top of piston so when you start in morning puff o smoke.
