Every Subaru except the BRZ is symmetrical all-wheel drive with a boxer engine, which means four CV axles, two differentials, and spark plugs that sit inches from the frame rails. Parts differ between the older EJ engines (timing belt) and the newer FB and FA engines (timing chain), so the engine code matters as much as the model.
What’s different about Subaru engine, fuel and ignition parts
- EJ engines (2.5i through about 2011, WRX and STI turbos through 2021) use a timing belt — belt, idlers, tensioner, and water pump are replaced together near 105,000 miles.
- FB, FA, and 3.6 engines use timing chains; older single-cam 2.5s used a single coil pack with plug wires, while newer engines use coil-on-plug with long-life plugs.
- Boxer spark plugs sit close to the frame rails, so plug changes often mean removing the battery, washer bottle, or intake — we bundle plugs with the gaskets that job disturbs.

What we need to quote your Subaru engine, fuel and ignition parts
- Engine code or displacement (found on the emissions label under the hood)
- Any stored trouble codes (P0300-series misfire codes tell us which cylinder)
- Mileage, so we can recommend the service items due at the same time
- Turbocharged or naturally aspirated — plug heat range and gap differ
