Used Subaru Engines You Can Trust

If your Subaru’s engine is worn out or damaged, replacing the entire vehicle isn’t your only option. A tested and certified used Subaru engine restores the original performance, reliability, and smooth handling your vehicle is known for—at a fraction of the cost of buying new.

Every used Subaru engine we sell is compression-tested, inspected, and verified for OEM-level fitment. Whether you drive a Subaru Outback, Forester, Crosstrek, Legacy, Impreza, Ascent, or WRX, our engines deliver dependable performance, perfect fitment, and lasting durability.

What Makes a Quality Used Subaru Engine Different?

A top-quality used Subaru engine isn’t just pulled from a donor vehicle—it’s inspected, cleaned, tested, and guaranteed to perform like it should. Subaru’s signature boxer engine design requires precision, which is why every used unit is thoroughly evaluated before shipping.

Each used engine is:

  • Compression and leak-down tested
  • Checked for head gasket integrity and oil leaks
  • Cleaned and drained for shipping
  • Verified for cylinder balance and oil pressure
  • Matched to your VIN for guaranteed compatibility

You get a ready-to-install engine that meets Subaru’s performance standards, saving you time and money on installation.

A used Subaru engine offers excellent value—OEM reliability at a much lower price. It’s the perfect solution for daily drivers, mechanics, or fleet managers seeking dependable replacements without overspending.

Warranty & Certification You Can Rely On

Each used Subaru engine includes 6–24 months of warranty coverage, depending on mileage and condition.

You’ll receive:

  • Compression and leak test documentation
  • Verified engine mileage report
  • VIN-matched compatibility confirmation
  • Warranty details and installation guide

Every used Subaru engine is tested to meet or exceed factory performance benchmarks before shipping.

Fitment for All Subaru Models

We offer used engines for nearly every Subaru manufactured between 2000 and 2024, including:

  • Subaru Outback
  • Subaru Forester
  • Subaru Crosstrek
  • Subaru Legacy
  • Subaru Impreza
  • Subaru WRX / WRX STI
  • Subaru Ascent
  • Subaru BRZ
  • Subaru Baja

Just provide your VIN or vehicle details to confirm a guaranteed engine match.

Cost Benefits

Purchasing a used Subaru engine can save you 40–60% compared to a new OEM engine—without compromising on reliability.

Average pricing examples:

  • Subaru Outback 2.5L H4: $2,000–$3,200
  • Subaru Forester 2.5L H4: $2,100–$3,300
  • Subaru WRX 2.0L Turbo: $2,800–$4,400
  • Subaru Crosstrek 2.0L: $1,900–$2,900
  • Subaru Ascent 2.4L Turbo: $3,000–$4,800

Lower installation times and VIN-verified fitment help reduce labor costs and ensure a perfect fit the first time.

Need help installing? We can recommend certified Subaru engine installers in your region for added confidence.

“A tested used Subaru engine is more than a replacement—it’s a second life for your car, built on OEM quality and performance.”

When Should You Replace Your Subaru Engine?

Common reasons to replace your Subaru engine include:

  • Head gasket failure
  • Rod knock or bearing damage
  • Oil sludge or contamination
  • Coolant leaks or overheating
  • Timing belt or chain failure
  • Compression loss in one or more cylinders
  • Excessive oil burning

A used engine is often the most economical and reliable solution when repairs become too frequent or costly.

Eco-Friendly & Sustainable

Opting for a used Subaru engine helps reduce waste and carbon emissions by reusing OEM parts that meet factory standards. Instead of discarding your Subaru, you can extend its lifespan while contributing to sustainable automotive practices.
