★ Top Answer
The 2009 Subaru Legacy should have its timing belt swapped out every 105,000 miles as recommended by the manufacturer. Neglecting this could lead to damage and potential failure, causing the car to quickly overheat. When replacing it, anticipate spending around $100 for the replacement part and another $100 for labor. Watch out when purchasing online, as some vendors mistakenly label both timing chains and timing belts as cam belts. Using a timing chain won't suffice and could result in being stuck with an ineffective component.
