lekmedm Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Hello all... Well, I'm looking to replace the engine in my 98 OBW and I wanted to know what other years and/or models used the 2.5L DOHC engine? For example, did this engine go into the Forester also?

cookie Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I would be tempted to look for a 2.2. I think the 95 is a bolt in but you might do a search here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subie Gal Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 forester, legacy, impreza all had the DOHC 2.5L 98-99 model years hope this helps Jamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomson1355 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I believe the forester had the DOHC only in 98, and was SOHC in 99. Legacy/Outback wasn't SOHC until 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomson1355 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 BTW, some dealers don't like to do the HG jobs and just want to throw a new engine in there. Are you sure the dealer isn't hearing the well-documented piston slap? Be suspicious. HGs alone aren't reason enough to spend all that money on a new or rebuilt engine.
