idosubaru Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 at $60 - $70 for an entire set of valve stem seals, Subaru is pricey. don't see a lot of reviews or folks talking about valve stem seals, though I did see Shawn mention aftermarket is bad. stories, experiences anyone? it's a really good car with low miles so i'll probably opt for Subaru this time....but Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccrinc Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 MOST of the aftermarket are iffey, however Viton ones from reputable supply houses can be good, as long as they're "made in Japan". We get the majority of ours in engine gasket kits from the dealer, but when we have to go aftermarket, we get them from WorldPac or local Rebuilder's Supply which sells (I think) Safety Products brand. Northeast Imported Parts used to sell them, but now they're for newer engines only. Oh, and they only sell to businesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
