Engine problem - expert advice appreciated
Haiya,
knocking sound of my engine was finally recognized by local subaru mechanic - it seems there are bad crankcase bearings or even crank itself. It is mainly on 6th valve, when disconected, sound is not so sharp. Car has 192k KM on it, engine is in perfect shape except knocking...
Is there somebody who changed crank shaft and crank shaft bearings? I need to set up some preliminary budget for desicion repair it or not. Also some hint of doing such a work is very appreciated. Local mechanic is quite familiar doing such a job on Legacys but no experience with SVX engine. I uderestand that engine has to be taken off - so many thing can go wrong. Thanx pals for any information.
Peter
