Hitting 300,000 miles on my Subaru Outback

[MrCarlonso24]

Hey man have u ever have a major problem with your outback im about to buy one with 144000 miles thanks its automatic

[gompth1966]

@MrCarlonso24 This is NOT my video, but I'll respond to your question. I bought my first Subaru (Impreza Outback) with 153K miles on it. I took it up to 168K, and it ran beautifully. No problems, and looked great. I traded it in for an '06 Outback with 20K on it. I now have 98K on it, and it runs like new. Amazing build quality. I have had one engine repair on it so far - new wires and coil pack. My plan right now is to take it to 300K. My next car will be the BRZ, or Forester.

@gusswilliams

It's a kufi.

[gusswilliams]

Whats with the funny hat?

[frumsatire]

My transmission died in Yosemite National Park last summer at 363,000 miles - RIP

[Conrad1147]

Nice dude! I live in the Elmira/Corning area and I drive Route 17 pretty much everyday =]

[woowoowaffel]

Thanks for the awesome vid. I have a '99 outback legacy. Its @ 298k right now...

[Inessotosubaru]

Hi, I'm working on a project for a Subaru brochure and we would like to use your video. Can you please respond back to me and I will give you more details?

Thanks, Ines Soto

[Inessotosubaru]

Hi Frumsatire,

Subaru of America is interested in using your video in a brochure. Can you please reply back to me if it is ok and I will give you more details.

Thanks

Ines

[bobwatters]

well damn if this aint the original engine than there is no reason to make a video

[thecardrawer10]

judging by your hat, no wonder you didn't buy a new car a while ago.. jk :P

[fledgehog]

300k on a subie is nothing ;)

[shelton705]

I have a 1999 Subaru Outback with only 59,390 miles on it. Great car, except it leaks oil.

[spdarkjoe]

why do u let a mechanic do the fixing? they are rip off and lie a lot.

[iloveweedsomuchable]

You should check your car because check engine light is on...

My check engine light came on at 98000 miles only..

[frumsatire]

@iloveweedsomuchable my check engine light has been on for about 150,000 miles, mostly to do with the evap system - luckily NY has loads of folks willing to pass you inspection for an extra 50 bucks - my move to California has forced me to keep my NY plates for this reason

[boxer3main]

that is awesome, take care. I first spotted a high mile scoob in the early 90s, it was a 1987... getting resold with fresh inspection from a dealer, with 365k miles. Complete with the little tiny 13 inch wheels! I never expected it from the expendible EJ series.

[ShelbyMustang456789]

if you take care, its good for another 300.000^^

[DeliciousMike]

Here's to 400miles!

[SubaruXT6]

Woo !

300,000 Miles !

yup agree what you said about guys and there cars.

i know it will make it to 400,000 miles !

Subarus are the Best !

[crammage]

it what makes a subaru a subaru .....

mine has 220,000miles 92 loyale

[kolbpilot]

It's encouraging to see hi mileage 2.5 dohc. It can be done. I'm hoping for the best for my new 176k, auto., '97 Outback.

[frumsatire]

@kolbpilot Just hit 351,000

[kolbpilot]

I guess I'm good to go then. I'm banking mine has had a new timing belt at least, poss. HG repairs. Who knows. I'm going to change all fluids & drive. (my chk. eng. lite is on. isn't everybodys ? My plan to put a piece of tape over it to make dissappear).

[parsley0120]

Mine was on for a year and a half before I got mine fixed. It was only because of an O2 sensor. I'm probably going to have to get the head gaskets replaced soon.. Ugh!

[kolbpilot]

That's where you make the call of yes or no. If you wracked up those mi. on the orig. HG's, than that is a feat. Eng. owes you nothing at 350k+ mi. Mine has already done a temperture surge (gage at 3/4, once) at an intersection, but jumped right down once rolling, Could of been t-stat. Something I'll have to watch. I want to like Subaru, (agree w/car relationships). This is the highest mileage car I've owned to date.

[parsley0120]

I have less than 115K on my car. But is has a salvage title, so doing the head gaskets is about half of what my car is worth.

[smirage22]

@kolbpilot thats how you fix the chk. eng. light

[parsley0120]

You're check engine light is on..

[frumsatire]

@parsley0120 its because of the evap system which I never got fixed because the mechanic says it doesnt matter

[ROFLpwnedvideos]

Subaru engines and transmissions are awesome. Can't beat 'em.

[GendoPrime]

i have a 98 outback that has almost 400,000 miles on the original engine. as soon as it blows i'm dropping a WRX motor in there.

[poopklown90]

I had a 1997 ford escort that died with 350k miles on it back in october.

[kwg2005]

i had 250,000 miles on my 1995 grand am. origonal engine. got rid of it 2 years ago due to rust.

[roguetrip99]

these cars rule

[GurlzLuvAChaud]

If that is a Jew cap on his head, then I give him an extra 5 points. Good job though...

[frumsatire]

You are correct it is a yarmulke on my head

[GurlzLuvAChaud]

Good Lord!!! I thought my 137,000 on my 2003 Maxima was a lot!!!

[jmurray01]

how far towards 400000 miles are u. ive got a pug 405 glx 1.9 td 1994, 299989. please reply with the amount of miles u have on ur car and what car it is.

[frumsatire]

I am about to hit 327,000 on my 99 outback

[acwardtur]

did you have to replace many part? expensive?

[frumsatire]

The engine was replaced at 150,000 miles just before I bought the car. I had to replace the clutch twice - but I have 325,000 miles and the thing runs great

[Soob4ME]

It doesn't even count if the engine was replaced. That's cheating.

[swampkid02]

How is that cheating? The rest of the car has traveled 325k. It was probably for headgasket failure anyway.

[Soob4ME]

Guess which part of the car does the most work. The bearings just turn, the body just, well, shines. And wiring just conducts electricity. The engine and transmission do the most work out of any part of the car.

[frumsatire]

@Soob4ME the engine was replaced at 163,000 just before I bought it. That engine had 80k on it and now the car has 351k which would that I have about 270k on the current engine

[Anythingbut4]

holy tits

[eautocad]

I bought my 2002 impreza wrx b/c when it was made GM owned 20% of Fuji heavy industries. Did you know that 99% of the machines in GM factories that actually make the cars are "Fuji heavy ind" ?? So in actuality, GM is more Subaru than anything. :) And likewise, subaru is more GM.

[raysn09]

"What's is wrong with my car?" LOL

What a piece of crap!

[BAlexandrov]

Only check why Check Engine is On :)

[wsjd46]

I AM MCLOVINNNN!!!

[djypsydjazz]

How many more miles before you need to rebuild the engine?

[frumsatire]

its going strong

[pisketty]

haha! we made one for my car when it hit 123456, but i accidently deleted it from my camera!

[kumquatsrorange]

wait, who's driving and who's video taping? This is dangerous!

[frumsatire]

Its all me baby

[guylookin4fun06]

lol

[frumsatire]

My friend Tamar made it and its so comfy

[itsthatmovieguy]
