Avg Life of an Engine and Transmission???

[kramer]

what is the avg life of an engine and automatic transmission in a car
like a subaru impreza? I know it varies but if anyone can give an
educated guess-timate that would be great. OR is there a web site
that might have this info. Also, what is the average cost for a
rebuilt engine (installed) and a rebuilt automatic transmision
(installed).

200-300k for the engine though mine crapped out at 155k;
~150k for the tranny if you drive like I do

educated guess-timate that would be great. OR is there a web site
that might have this info. Also, what is the average cost for a
rebuilt engine (installed) and a rebuilt automatic transmision

~$4k for the engine
$1.6k for the tranny if they have to rebuild it themselves less if they can
get a rebuilt
tranny from someone else

In the Nothern California.

I always get rid of mine at about 300,000 miles and 8-10 years but at that
point they still work fine. 2.2 liter auto trans.TG

I don't know but a fellow Subaru owner was parked next to me yesterday and I
asked her how she liked her car.
She said she was going to take it in for transmission trouble. Car looked
fairly new but it has 144,000 miles on it.
She said she loves the car. Personally, I don't drive that much, and if I
get those kind of miles on my new Forester, it may be the last car I ever
buy.
