Hey all,
Long story short my buddy and I found that my oil pan and valve cover gaskets are all leaking, and, seeing as how the clutch has been starting to go in the last couple months we have decided to drop the motor and trans and do some updating and refreshing on my 2008 Legacy Spec B. To my knowledge the car is completely stock as I have yet to touch anything on it (other than adding an Accessport to monitor stuff) and the previous owners seemed to be an older couple up north.
As I am not well-versed with these cars I am looking for suggestions for parts and items to check while we have everything out. Bare minimum we are doing the valve cover gaskets, resealing the oil pan, replacing the clutch, spark plugs, checking/replacing the rear main seal, replacing differential oil, shifter bushings, checking the turbo shaft play. I am considering better motor/trans mounts since we will have the motor out anyway.
One thing to note that we are unsure of is if the slave cylinder on these 6mts is external or internal and if it should be replaced. The car is at almost 170k miles. It is my daily driver so I don't plan on going crazy with upgrades, but some fun is always appreciated.
I appreciate suggestions for what else to look at or consider replacing because I like options and this car deserves it. Thanks!
