mhylim Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Hi, any suggestions for good mechanics in South Bay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadvw Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 What exactly do you need? Garage One advertises themselves as a Subaru shop, and I've had them do a few things and they seemed competent. For general maintenance, etc, I think they're probably fine. If you need more custom stuff, etc, Fredrik94087 seems to be in love with AA Motorworks.

mhylim Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 Nothing crazy. I have an old 2007 Outback XT and need the timing belt service and maybe the gaskets replaced. The place I have been using seems really expensive---they wanted something like $2000 for timing belt replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnusonsubie Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Do you do any wrench turning yourself? The timing belt is actually a very straight forward and easy job to do. I can send you the FSM instructions if you'd like. Or come down to the south bay on a Saturday to help. 2005 Vader Wagon Material Tests on Ringland Failure Piston I should have held off and purchased a wagon instead of the spec.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhylim Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 Looks like I will need to learn some wrench turning. Could you send me the FSM instructions? I will see about putting my engineering degree to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a wrench and get dirty young man! hehehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Company 23 Cam lock tool and a new timing belt tensioner, so it should be pretty easy. My OBXT build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
