How much does it cost to replace a Subaru Outback transmission?

My Subaru Outback makes a grinding noise every time it shifts. I’ve always heard that transmissions are expensive, and I’m guessing that’s what’s causing the grinding noises. How much does a replacement transmission for a Subaru Outback cost?

A Subaru Outback transmission replacement can cost anywhere from $1,500 to $4,000. Grinding noises when switching gears is definitely a sign that something is going on with your transmission, so you’ll want to take it to a mechanic soon.
Other transmission issues can present as:
  • Burning smells from under the hood
  • Engine stalling or surging
  • Transmission warning light comes on
  • Delayed shifting
