How Long Do Subaru Transmissions Last. 510k miles later you can expect to need a new shortblock or a rebuild. If abused it might fail at 60k miles.
Older cars may have shorter life spans. Customer complaints are also a good anecdotal indicator. On some 07-ish and later turbo Subarus the cold startup tune is so aggressively aimed at emissions red.
Common Subaru CVT Repair Costs.
In a late-model vehicle you can expect the CVT to last more than 100000 miles. My Subaru is a 1993 Legacy L Wagon and is currently flirting with 294000 miles all on the original engine transmission and suspension. In general it has been observed that with proper care and maintenance of Subaru cars it can last to do well up to 200K mark. I feel like Subaru is letting us down by using a transmission that will only last that long.
