Topic starter

Going to check out a Subaru for sale by private party seller who has owned it for the last 10 years.  2004 Subaru Forester X with 229,xxx miles.  2.5L Automatic - Owner uses it as her daily driver.

Has a Check engine light on and wondering what it might be... Woman who owns states, "The check engine light is something about the 1 and 3 cylinders. There has been a water pump, timing belt, new plugs, wires etc about 50,000 miles ago.

Drips oil from head gasket,\ but that's something I can fix if I buy it.

Thoughts?

Get a scan for codes.


Yea, just trying to get an initial idea of what's possibly wrong before I drive 1.5 hours there to take a look and get a scan.

“Drips oil from the head gasket”

Thanks, but no thanks. The CEL is probably on for the P0300 due to a blown head gasket.

Keep looking..
