And it's not a top engine rebuild, it involves the Oil Control Valves (for the VVT), the Exhaust Cam Sprocket and the ECM. In some cases just the OCV's need to be replaced, in others only the Cam sprockets, and in a few, all of the parts need to be replaced.
It can affect Impreza's with the FB20 and all models with the FA20.
The TSB only applies if you have had a CEL.

The question was "could it happen to an AUTOMATIC as well." and i responded saying that it could happen to any regardless of transmission. and i have 6 people locally that had to have valves, cam shafts, sprockets, a timing actuator. so YES it can happen to ALL FRS/BRZ regardless of transmission. That is what was being said.
