MAHLE HS55016 cylinder head gasket set for the 1999-2005 Subaru Forester H4 2.5L and other vehicles seals the cylinder head to the engine block.
Coolant loss with no outside leak, overheating or milky-looking oil can mean a head gasket is leaking. These signs alone don't prove the gasket is at fault, since a leaking radiator hose can also drain coolant.
This MAHLE cylinder head gasket set, also called an engine cylinder head gasket set, fits the H4 2.5L engine. The vehicles it fits include the 2000-2005 Subaru Outback H4 2.5L and the 1999-2005 Subaru Impreza H4 2.5L alongside the 1999-2005 Subaru Forester H4 2.5L. If your car isn't one of these, look up your year and engine in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
