The 2014 Subaru Legacy comes standard with a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine, designated as the FB25. This engine produces 173 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque, paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or Subaru’s Lineartronic CVT. The FB25 features direct injection technology and is designed to meet stricter emissions standards while providing improved fuel economy compared to previous generations. This horizontally-opposed engine design helps lower the vehicle’s center of gravity for better handling and is a signature characteristic of Subaru vehicles.

The 2014 Subaru Legacy shares most parts with the 2010-2014 fifth generation Legacy models. Many engine components from the FB25 2.5L engine are interchangeable across these years, including intake manifolds, cylinder heads, and various sensors. Body panels, interior components, and suspension parts generally interchange within this generation. Some electrical components and infotainment systems may have year-specific variations. The CVT transmission components are typically compatible with 2013-2014 models. Always verify part numbers and specifications, as mid-cycle refreshes can introduce subtle differences that affect compatibility.

The 2014 Legacy’s 2.5L FB25 engine is generally reliable but has some known issues to monitor. While more dependable than earlier EJ-series engines regarding head gasket failures, the FB25 can still develop external head gasket leaks and oil consumption problems. Regular oil changes every 5,000 miles are crucial, and owners should monitor oil levels frequently due to potential consumption issues. The timing chain design eliminates belt replacement concerns, but the CVT transmission paired with this engine has proven less reliable than the engine itself. Overall, with proper maintenance and early attention to oil consumption, this engine can provide 200,000+ miles of service.
