The 2013 Subaru Impreza comes standard with a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-four engine, designated as the FB20. This horizontally-opposed boxer engine produces 148 horsepower and 145 lb-ft of torque. It features aluminum construction, direct injection, and variable valve timing on both intake and exhaust camshafts. The FB20 replaced the older EJ series engines and was designed to improve fuel economy and reduce emissions. It’s paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or Subaru’s Lineartronic CVT automatic transmission, and comes standard with Subaru’s Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system across all trim levels.

The 2013 Subaru Impreza shares most parts with the 2012-2016 model years, as this represents the fourth generation Impreza platform. Engine components from the FB20 are largely interchangeable across these years, though minor updates occurred annually. Body panels, interior components, and suspension parts are generally compatible within this generation. Some electrical components and infotainment systems may have year-specific variations. The CVT transmission components are compatible across 2012-2016 models. However, always verify part numbers as Subaru made running changes throughout production. Parts from 2017+ models are generally not compatible due to the significant platform redesign that occurred for the fifth generation.

The FB20 2.0L engine in the 2013 Impreza is moderately reliable but has some known issues. While generally more dependable than older EJ engines regarding head gasket failures, the FB20 can suffer from excessive oil consumption and external head gasket leaks. Regular oil changes every 3,000-5,000 miles are crucial, and owners should monitor oil levels frequently. The engine responds well to proper maintenance and can last 200,000+ miles if oil consumption issues don’t develop. Avoid extended oil change intervals and consider switching to full synthetic oil early in the engine’s life. The timing chain design eliminates timing belt replacement concerns, making maintenance more straightforward than previous generations.
