Hands down the best ej255 removal video on KZread. Thank you both Subi Mike and Carey for such a fantastic and thorough step by step video. I really appreciate it! 🙏🏻

Hoping the Subaru series is still alive, would love to see more content from Mike.

Thank you for your vids! This is my exact engine and it helps to no end whenever i'm trying to identify something or replacing parts.

Why I get the feeling Mike has done this before. Lol, awesome tutorial. Too bad I live live in the east coast. He’s like master Yoda from the Subaru world.

Fell asleep watching something else woke up 1:33:21 seconds in the vid nice video had no idea what i was hearing in my dream thumbs up for waking me up lol

Just did the timing belt on my 2009 non-turbo Impreza. I loved the bit about retrofitting the tensioner pulley bracket from older EJ-251 motors for the stretch fit A/C compressor belt... great hack!

This was in my recommended. I watched the whole thing out of boredom and I’m very glad I did

Yet another video I like and save to my Cars playlist before even watching it. This mechanic is so awesome, I automatically know I'm going to like it and want it around to watch again.

My dad was a man of few words, but I believe he would have described your work as “first class.” Thank you both very much.

Outstanding videos. I truly appreciate the time and effort it takes to share these videos. Mike makes it look easy and his dexterity is second to none. Not as easy as he makes it look. Thanks Mike.

Wow love these Subaru videos, big thanks to Mike and Carey for putting in the effort to make them, please please keep them coming

This video really demonstrates Carey's cammera skills and just how proficient he is.

I just replaced my turbo's CHRA. Watching this man do this with such... ease. I have so many questions. And an urge to shake his hand and even buy him lunch just because I learned something I will use as long as I wrench.

I enjoy watching these vids. Helpful and entertaining. You keep making them and we'll keep watching them.

to anyone who also ripped the knock sensor plug off there is a way to repair that problem. looking into the female plug there is a withe piece of plastic you got to pull gently 4mm(2/8inc) out then you are able to push down two grey lever in the plug with each release a pin. after releasing the pins you solder them to the wires and put back the pins into the plug

There are kind people in the world

These videos are so much better than all the time lapse with annoying music type videos that have no real information.

''We gonna need a bigger boat'' This guy is a bit of a legend. Forget about catching that shark, this is real skill.

Earlier i told my wife i found a subie wizard on youtube and he looks just like main character on jaws! Lol

OMG you saved my Forester. TY

Thanks for the cool video. Its totaly badass how you stay so calm and clean after working on a engine compartment that looks so dang grungy.... Respect!

Subaru Mike is a Savage! Thanks Carey for this collaboration.

If you're watching this to learn how to remove your turbo engine you don't need to remove the intake in the car. Run a seat belt as a strap around the intake and use that to attach to the chain on the hoist and pull the engine with the intake on. That's what we always did at my dealership

Great video, thanks very much for posting it guys. Mike, I didn't hear you moan about having a sore back from bending over that engine bay once - what's your secret?

glad you demostrated the fuel line detachment ! I am those right now with my 05 OB, 5 speed.

Thank you Mike! I have to do this to my wife' 09 XT soon, you are a Subaru GOD!

thanks for all you do mike and carey you are the best

Yes! I second that its not easy working on cars but you both make a good team and Mike is a real Honest Ace!!!

Anybody else check their phone at 1:12:54? Lol at the earth shaking when the bolt cracked loose... I felt it over here I tell you... Keep up the great work Mike and Carey. I as well would love to see more a lot! More please!! I seriously wish I could pick this guy's brain... what engine is compatible with what transmission? What engine is compatible with what car? What parts are interchangeable?? Of course changing stuff around like that you would have to swap out some sensors and components maybe the manifold(pending on your application), but how many different years makes and models will just bolt straight up without having to do wiring or possibly moving engine mounts and/or subframe? There should be a video of Mike just talkin about everything he knows that comes to Subies. His wisdom should be spread like a wild fire. Carey none of this would have been possible if it wouldn't be for your great video footage, Mike you are the main! man! Can't wait to watch the rest and more!

Great video, though I am a little surprised you have to take off the intake manifold and a whole heap of other parts to remove the engine. And my understanding of the air pump is it just reduced emissions during startup

Thanks Mike & Carey!

Awesome video but was just curious, when I took out the air box from my 2011 Forester Turbo I noticed a connector underneath the power steering pump reservoir. Does it go connected to anything? On this video when you took out the power steering pump, you can see it just there. At the 26:08 minutes of video you see the connector branch off the cable that goes into the fender to the left of the power steering reservoir.

thank you!

Great video, thanks!

Thanks Subaru mike you make it look so simple, please on of these days take apart a wrx or sti

Can we please get more Subaru content? We love subaru Mike and Carey thanks for the uploads. Cheers!

Tanks Mr!! Great Work Very Very cool.

Great camera work Carey and wrenching from Subaru Mike. Love the detail and explanations. Very knowledgeable

Does anyone know if this motor or 09-14sti swaps well into the X model of the same year?

@17:50 "age of the vehicle" .... it's barely 10 years old! haha so much love for you guys but this made me chuckle since mine is a 1995

Mine is a 1980! 😆

is it better to remove the intake ? I'm about to pull my 06 OBXT with Auto Trans and swap the shortblock.

Very informative. Thank you.

I'm assuming Mike had 20 pairs of white shorts and was changing them every 15 minutes??

HollomanUFOLanding are you kidding? That’s one of the first lessons of Subaru Master Tech Wizardry School! The most important one, of course; is the ability to remotely activate oil leaks on command. Amazing how they are able to do that...

Awesome stuff thank you guys for taking the time to explain and document.

Anybody got the part numbers of all the dried hoses? specifically at 1:58:09

hi Carey can you tell me why the coil packs on the sparkplugs have to be changed around 292345 kms or the simlier in miles is it the heat or bad quality my subaru is a 1990 legecy ej 2.0 yes its old but goes well great video to

What are the symptoms of a bad Air Pump?

great video

My son and I had to replace the head gaskets on his 2006 Subaru Legacy. We performed the job with some struggles put it back in but it runs really rough any idea what could be the problem.

That is my car. Or just like it. Question, on the bottom of the engine near the front edge are two plugs with what looks like a bit of Antifreeze leaking. This is my first Subaru, Are these plugs with O-rings? Can they be removed and fixed without losing all the coolant?

This extraction should almost be the exact same for the 08-14 WRX, right?

love your videos keep them coming!

Wonderfull video

Is there a reason why you pull everything from the motor vs pulling the motor complete then tearing it down on a stand.

@1:40:20 I think Fuji Heavy Industries has a whole special department devoted to designing under-engine spill containment. Did everyone see how deep that ‘car diaper’ was??? Holy Scoobity-Doo-Doo!!

MIke, what brand is your right angle ratchet? I must have one!

Bravo.

Love your work. Man the intercooler is tiny!

Those secondary air pumps are a PITA i deleted mine too

I wish you would do more 2.5 Subaru..2001 subi

I love you. This video is absolute gold. Very detailed and informative.

Followed your instructions and got the engine out. But forgot to make a mental note like you said of where every screw goes. So I’m stuck. You think I should take it to the dealer with a bag of parts? :-p

Subie Mike The Subie Curmodgeon! Love that guy!

I know few mechanics more knowledgeable than You Carey 👍🏻

Yesss this is back!!

Great mechanic ,. think I'll stick with the non -turbo ,Way too much crap stuffed in there .Lot a hard work wasted if mistakes are made .shouldn't have any if you carefully go through Mikes channel .The camera work is very solid Thanks so much.

Loved that Intro. SubiMike has hit the big time. And did I hear a "get 'er done"?

EJ205 please

lol my favorite part was @27:00 sorry ladies... i know your all in tears...but hes taken....lmao...we are all broken...and stuck paying attention so we can do it ourselves now...lol

I don't even know how I ended up here. But hey, at least I know how to pull a motor from a forester

Can't you just pull the plastic intake part off the TGVS and go to town ?

Love these videos! Mike and Cary are the best. Funny how when mike pulled this engine, How big of a job it was Yet it didn't look like mike had one spot of grease on his clothes. Not me when i pull an engine i'm covered from head to toe. LOL!

As much as I respect Mike, PLEASE do not work underneath a car in the way Mike did without the rear wheels being chocked in place, it's far too dangerous otherwise. The car could roll backwards off of the stands and crush the mechanic. It has happened.

The whispered “there is a god” just killed me lol. Although, I ripped the head off the lower outside turbo>down pipe bolt, where there should have been a stud but my eBay turbo had a hole and I used a bolt. Not looking forward to dealing with that when I pull the engine out of my 05 OBXT. Probably have to remove it with the down pipe and scrap it all and get a new down pipe with my new BNR, and therefore an accessport. Little $2k addition to my project :(

1:12:28 nice thats what i made

lmao yo i love how vulgar mike was getting towards the end, cuz of his shop crane

I had those air valves removed and deleted from my ecu. That setup is a money pit when it goes bad and totally useless in my opinion.

Turbo is sooo small for a forester

42:50 Lol this whole motor is a 'necessary evil'

Gasoline cars, what nightmares. Thats why you go with a tesla
