When your Subaru engine starts to fail, replacing the entire vehicle isn’t necessary. A remanufactured Subaru engine delivers the same reliability and performance as a new OEM motor—at a fraction of the cost.
Unlike used or salvaged engines, remanufactured units are completely disassembled, cleaned, precision-machined, and rebuilt with new or reconditioned components. Every engine is tested to ensure it meets or exceeds Subaru’s factory performance standards.
Whether you drive a Subaru Outback, Forester, Impreza, Crosstrek, Legacy, Ascent, or WRX, a remanufactured engine can restore your car’s signature balance of power, safety, and fuel efficiency.
A genuine remanufactured Subaru engine is re-engineered from the inside out. The process ensures every detail—from compression ratio to torque output—matches original factory specifications.
Key components replaced or rebuilt include:
Each engine is pressure tested, compression tested, and dyno-tested before it leaves the facility to ensure consistent Subaru-grade performance.
Feature | Remanufactured Engine | Used Engine | Rebuilt Engine |
|---|---|---|---|
Testing | Dyno-tested & leak-tested | Not tested | Limited testing |
Warranty | 1–5 years | None | 30–90 days |
New Parts | Majority replaced | None | Only damaged parts |
Longevity | Like-new | Uncertain | Variable |
Fitment | VIN-matched | Unverified | Partial |
A remanufactured Subaru engine provides dependable power and longevity—making it ideal for drivers who want dealership quality without the dealership price.
