How many timing belts does my 05 Subaru Forester have

Asked by Dukes Jan 03, 2019 at 04:25 AM about the 2005 Subaru Forester XS

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My mother in law had a different Subaru than I do
and when I mentioned I was gonna replace the
timing belt that I should do research to see if it has
2 of them because her Subaru did and no one new
she had them both replaced but I only have enough
for one and it badly needs it so how do I go about
finding out before the mechanic takes it apart?
Also if it has 2 could I just replace the one and still
be fine?
