    Hello, looking for reputable and, if possible, economical shop to do head-gasket and associated repairs on 2010 Forester. Looks to be the external oil leak type HG failure. Any leads are appreciated. I reside in S MPLS but am willing to travel within the metro area. Thanks for your time.

    Wow, just about the exact mileage our Outback had when it needed gaskets. We had the dealer do it, and because the rear main seal was also leaking they took the engine out to do all of it. Be prepared for that option to be presented to you.
