Hi,
I brought my 19' Outback 2.5 for an unrelated service to the dealer and they ended up calling me to say they discovered coolant in the oil and ended up replacing the head gaskets under warranty. The car has 50k miles and has been meticulously maintained (at the dealership). From everything I have seen fifth gens rarely have this issue and the head gasket does are a thing of the past. Is it likely that this is a real issue or that the dealer is just making up unnecessary work to generate revenue for the service department?
