Hi Guys. Does anyone know of any good(cheap) suppliers for shocks for my
1997 2.5 outback in the UK. (For both new and used).

Used shocks? They arent great new so why would you want used ones.

KYB is what I have got as replacement in my outback'97, both fronts and
rears. No problems since installation, cost was around 40-50 GBP a piece
(not in UK). Other brands were something like upgrade and costed more. Used
shocks were no option.

I've also got KYBs - two in the front of my 98 OBW. I paid $90 a
piece in the U.S. and haven't had any problems. Keep in mind you'll
need a strut spring compressor to do the job too.

'97 Outback oil consumption - My new/used Outback is going through a quart of oil about every 2000 miles. This sounds about normal to me. What say you? The engine has about 35k on it. Thanks. Sheldon sheldon@sopris.net

1997 Subaru Outback - Looking at getting this rig, however, there is a slight tick in the engine, particular when you rev it up. Is this something I should be concerned with? 160kms and timing belt changed.

New tires for an Outback? - It's time for new tires on my 2000 Outback, and I'm debating what to get. Right now I'm debating between either Goodyear Assurance TripleTred and BF Goodrich Traction T/A-H tires. Any useful comments are welcome, especially in areas regarding gas..

07 outback questions - Thinking of getting a new 07 outback. Will the manual transmission be better than my 98 Forester? (I hope so as it's a little finnicky) Our Forester has been pretty reliable but what about the outbacks? Searching finds some people have had..
