Most common problems:

Head gasket failure

The 1996 Subaru Impreza with a 6-cylinder engine is notorious for head gasket issues, leading to coolant leaks and engine overheating.

Oil leaks

Older Subaru models, including the 1996 Impreza, are prone to oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets and camshaft seals, which can cause oil to drip onto hot engine parts.

Timing belt wear

The timing belt in a 1996 Subaru Impreza needs regular inspection and replacement as it wears out, which can lead to engine misfires or complete engine failure if it breaks.

Cooling system problems

This model can experience issues with the radiator, water pump, and thermostat, which can lead to engine overheating if not properly maintained.

Spark plug issues

Worn or fouled spark plugs can cause misfires, poor fuel economy, and rough engine performance in the 1996 Subaru Impreza.

Fuel system problems

Clogged fuel injectors or a failing fuel pump can result in poor engine performance, reduced power, and stalling.

Exhaust system rust

Older Subaru models like the 1996 Impreza often suffer from rust and corrosion in the exhaust system, leading to leaks and increased emissions.
