Turbocharger may develop problems, including boost leaks, bearing failures, or wastegate malfunctions, affecting engine performance.
Oil consumption
Some SUBARU WRX models are known for higher-than-normal oil consumption, which can lead to engine wear if not monitored.
Engine knock
The engine may develop knocking sounds caused by pre-ignition or detonation, often due to poor fuel quality or carbon buildup.
Timing belt/chain wear
Over time, the timing belt or chain may wear out or become misaligned, leading to potential engine damage if not replaced.
Cooling system leaks
Radiator, hoses, or water pump may develop leaks, leading to engine overheating.
Clutch wear (manual transmission)
The WRX’s clutch can wear out prematurely, especially if driven aggressively, leading to slippage or failure.
Cv joint and axle issues
The constant velocity (CV) joints and axles can wear out, causing clicking noises and potential drivability issues.
Exhaust system corrosion
Exhaust components may corrode over time, leading to leaks or increased emissions.
