How Many Miles Forged Pistons Last
Hi to all,
Just after some info regarding how long Mahle forged pistons last for, as in mileage before replacing? Car being 2.5 WRX full engine rebuild. Thanks Marc :) |
Engine rebuilt by Thwaites in 2017, with 6k miles since rebuild.
Car has VF43 turbo, and STi top mount intercooler. |
Just an update, car running 313bhp with 5 speed box.
Mainly used at weekends, maximum 5k miles a year. |
The pistons should last the life of the engine, just keep your car maintained and use decent fuel and all should be well mate

The forged pistons should be changed out every 10k miles at every service generally.
