Welcome! We love pics here!!

Welcome!

Willkommen!

welcome to the h6 club and as stated above we all love pics

Welcome!!
Im sure youll find all the answers you need here

I havent got any pics of the car .... Its at Subaru Doncaster getting Diagnosed I could be looking at a head gasket job.
I've read other threads on here about that sort of problem and yup its going to cost an arm and a leg. My brother is a mechanic and he does not want to touch it *ouch*
as soon as I get it back I will take some pics

Welcome and ouch!

i too have been down the headgasket replacement path and it sucks, subaru will take both your arms and legs, id recommend sourcing your own parts and getting a trust worthy mechanic to do it. theres are some other people here in melbourne who have had a HG replaced, wouldnt hurt asking where they got it done.

Ask for George at Neilzeds in Collingwood.
Suby HG's at very reasonable prices are his specialty!

Thanks for the advice I will definitely look into it

Hey all ...... Well I've been told I wont get much change from $6000( if it is the head gasket) ..... If anyone here can recommend a cheaper mechanic I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks Benny I will contact that mechanic tomorrow

A member "poidagt" recently had his head gasket done recently for around 3-4k. It was in nsw, but that might give you an idea of price.

He's in my street so if I see him I'll ask.
Every third car he fixes is a Sube

Also for comparisons sake ask John at Little Sam's also in Collingwood.

Also would recommend PMing jakey who's also recently done a HG - he's in Melb too, and I'm pretty sure from memory he got a competitive quote to get it replaced.

Subaru has just called me ...... Head gasket confirmed ..... 7 grandddddddddddddddddd
Thanks to the people who are suggesting other mechanics I am feeling optimistic
