Running, 4x4, 246 thousand km, TA until 11/2026.
Diagnosed twice – 3rd cylinder or injector. Sold unrepaired.

A reliable Subaru Outback "grandpa" is looking for a handy owner!
Yes, the price is strange again. Simple prices somehow don't suit this "grandpa."

For sale: a true, time-and-road-tested workhorse – the 2009 Subaru Outback "Zombie Slayer."

Fair warning right away – this car is not for the opera or for shows. It is a fully functional "grandpa" that is still ready to work and serve, but it needs an owner who isn't afraid to tinker with the mechanics themselves.

Honorable biography and maintenance

The car was registered in Lithuania in 2009. No dark secrets from foreign auctions. Maintained and loved at a specialized Subaru service center.

The first person to drive it, straight off the ferry that brought it, was an office-based asphalt worker. After three years, the car passed into its second pair of hands, where it remains to this day.

Although it is a four-wheel drive (4x4) tank, it hasn't seen black mud – it mostly worked on asphalt, on light trips to Klaipėda, Tallinn, or Warsaw.

Holy mileage: a real, untampered 246,000 km.

Super plus: the engine block was fully replaced in 2012! The old block still exists as a piece of home decor :)

Documents and maintenance: TA is valid until 2026-11. Original car manual is included.

And now about its old-age whims and battle scars

Engine tantrums: while the engine is cold – it drives perfectly. However, once it reaches operating temperature, it starts to shake at idle and may stall. While driving and keeping slightly higher RPMs – it keeps going.

The car was checked twice via diagnostics for this problem. Both times the conclusion was the same – the problem is related to the 3rd cylinder; a possible cause is the injector. The exact cause has not been fully determined, and no repairs have been made. This requires someone who wants and knows how to tinker themselves – the current owner's technical skills end at this point.

Bumper vs. Roe Deer: six months ago, on a night road while driving at about 50 km/h, a fateful encounter with a roe deer occurred. For the deer, it was a kiss of death, but the Subaru proved its toughness – the airbags didn't even deploy. The visual consequence – the front driver-side bumper is slightly misaligned. Everything was fixed seriously, masculinely, and reliably – with "zip-ties."

All other bumper corners are also scratched – parking scars. It doesn't bother me, because a tank is not a ship – it doesn't catch on the asphalt with its sides.

Heat and ventilation in the cabin: possibly due to age, the glowing eye for temperature settings – the screen/bulb – went out a few years ago. Therefore, the current driver has developed a sharp intuition and perfectly guesses which direction the ventilation is blowing and where the car is taking air from. The temperature "level" can also be counted out like unlocking a safe. True magical realism.

Both front seats are heated and work properly.

The air conditioner, I believe, does not work – most likely the fluid has leaked out. But in Lithuania, there isn't that much summer heat - you just open the windows and breathe.

Trunk protest: the latest news – upon learning it would be sold, the "grandpa" fell into a deep sadness and stubbornly jammed the trunk door. Currently, it does not open. It will need an owner who knows how to negotiate with locked latches – either nicely or with force.

Body fashion statement: at the bottom of the doors, the classic of Lithuanian winters has appeared – rust spots.

If you are that handy person who will fix the engine tantrums yourself, unlock the trunk, and for whom cosmetic scars don't hinder driving to the forest, fishing, or construction sites – this tank is just for you.

The car is in Vilnius.
Call – the car is waiting for a new captain!
