yums88 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 i have a problem and was hoping maybe you can help me. yesterday while pulling into my parking lot at work i began hearing a loud noise from my engine as i pulled into my spot the engine died just as i put the car in park. i drained the oil after seeing that there was twice the needed amount and put in new oil. the car starts but you still hear a knocking and it dies soon after. what can i do about this, i was thinking about getting the engine rebuilt or getting a differant 2.5 engine put in, maybe wrx or sti but i have no clue about compatability.

elmwood22 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I hate to ask.....but who did the last oil change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 swap in an EJ22 is another option. although the 2000 year is harder to find, they can be cheaper and easier to find than the EJ25 - and as a bonus they have fewer head gasket, piston slap, and bearing issues.
