Timing chain tensioner

Postby Keyringg » Mon Jun 20, 2016 1:36 pm

Hi, i've found a 3.0r-b on carsales, everything looks alright but the owner mentions that the timing chain tensioner will need to be replaced.

Big job isn't it?

Can be a $2K+ job.
My advice is consult a subaru specialist, and get a quote for getting it done before you commit to buy a car that needs it.

Here is my shortlist of parts from PartSouq to do a full timing chain service (and water pump while it is opened up)

Yeah, that's the exact ad.

Thanks for the tips lads. Probably ads insult to injury that it's interstate too.
