Warning regarding Subaru diesel replacement engines
Did a search for this and couldn't find anything so not sure if it is general knowledge, but the Legacy diesel boxer engines (EE20 I think) from 2008, 2009 and possibly 2007 have a known problem with the crankshaft that seems to affect a high number of cars.

Re: Warning regarding Subaru diesel replacement engines
Its a well known fault. The Subaru diesel isnt supposed to be much cop anyway. Not driven one myself, only what I have read.
