<prompt> Human: About four months ago I purchased a 2006 Subaru Legacy GT for about 10k all said and done. Im still making payments on it about 350. Two days ago I noticed a clicking sound coming from the engine. I took it to a Subaru dealership and they said the costs could be anywhere from 7k-13k for parts and work. The car is under no warranty. Financially I dont know what do...Buy a new car and make payments on both? Bite the bullet and pay for the fix? I dont particularly want to pay for two cars, one of which doesnt run well or at all. We cant be sure what exactly is wrong with the engine unless we take it out meaning to have to pay for a lot of work when it may not be the best option. Please help! I feel so lost. I appreciate in advance any advice or information!!  <response>: I had the same story a few years ago with a Mazda3. Engine was gone, dealership wanted 12,000 to replace it they would only put in a new motor from Mazda. I bought a used engine from eBay for 900 and a reputable independent shop installed it for 1200. I got another 75-100,000kms out of the car before I sold it.
