The 2015 Subaru Legacy comes with a standard 2.5L 4-cylinder engine, but there is also an option for a more powerful 3.5L 6-cylinder motor. Models with the standard engine use a timing chain system designed to last the vehicle's lifetime, typically not needing replacement unless there is engine or chain damage. However, if your model has the 3.5L motor, it will have a timing belt that will require replacement every 70,000 to 100,000 miles.
