740gle Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I have a 02' Legacy GT wagon non-turbo, and looking for another legacy wagon. Found 07' turbo legacy with 47K miles for sale on CL. How do the turbo's holding up? Are they problematic? Anything specific to look for compared to non-turbo from similar years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheinen74 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) check out http://www.legacygt.com/ YES, 05+ turbo engine is very problematic, like 100% failure rate of the turbo, and the block itself. Get only a car that has had this fixed under warranty, IE it has a new engine and new turbo.. 64 pages to read of blown turbos -> http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/anyone-oem-blown-turbo-please-83047.html?t=83047&highlight=blown+turbo+warranty http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/blown-stock-turbos-v40-many-67252.html?t=67252 126 blown turbs, 392 not blown in the poll. but you will find all the problems on lgt. I have to recommend no turbo, just get the N/A and you should be much better off.. Edited April 14, 2010 by bheinen74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
