I’m not a big fan of stickers on my car. But I wanted a magnet that will survive the car wash, the highway and a monsoon thunderstorm. I think I’ve found it. Rare earth magnetic strips that are exactly the same width and length of my badges.

for context, i have a 2021 outback premium 2.5L, currently 62K miles. $1971 seems crazy high to me

This Subaru had a very severe accident this morning in Boulder, CO. I'm not going to dwell on specifics. But it likely was airborne for 100+ feet and landed on other (unoccupied) parked cars. Look at how protected the driver space is (it is believed the door was removed by jaws of life). Driver was reported to be extracted alive, no further info available currently.

Four (count ‘em four!) Subbies, all in the same building. Nice neighbors!

CORRECTION: 2020 Ascent (bought in September 2019)

Long daily commutes, road trips to Florida, GA, SC, NC, NY, MA, Vermont, Maine, MI, OH...

Original transmission. Regular maintenance, i.e. brake fluid and transmission fluid flush, oil change. Oil change @ 7-8000 miles. A few minor fender benders.

At some point, the ride was not as smooth but found out that 2 alloy rims were bent from hitting curbs and or pot holes at high speed. After fixing the rims, it has been very smooth again. My 17 years old son just commented about how smooth the car is this Sunday.

Hoping to drive at least 25-50,000 more miles (1-2 years).

(My last Subaru, 2013 Outback died at 187,000 miles because i neglected to fix the head gasket.)

title basically says it all my mom just got a brand new 2026 forrester hybrid touring in cbs and we were told the car is getting shipped from a different location since their were very few new tourings in OR.

Hey guys! I own a wonderful 2018 Subaru crosstrek with a 6 speed manual transmission. I don’t want to do any serious racing or anything, but will sliding around on dirt a little destroy my car? Thanks!

Want to start out by saying I have a 2014 Subaru Impreza base

For awhile now my A/C hasn’t been working and I can’t seem to figure out the issue, my compressor unit is basically brand new (less than a year old) and I just out refrigerant in the lines and it’s still not blowing any air and making the sound under neither the glovebox

Thank you in advance

How bad are these lower control arms? I don’t feel anything abnormal braking and no metal on metal noises. Maybe a little rattling when backing out of parking spaces but can’t remember if it’s always been like that or if it started later on

Hello, my girlfriend’s center diff failed on her car and we ended up putting a whole other transmission in because the shop figured it was their easiest bet. So now I want to rebuild the old center diff for a spare and I’m assuming the viscous coupler needs to be replaced but I was wondering if these roller bearings on the upper shaft need to be replaced? TIA

I have a Subaru Forester 2024, around 34k miles. I’ve been doing all my maintenance at a local Subaru dealer. Is this price legit and do you guys recommend doing all of this?

I checked the search feature and haven't found a definitive answer so I'll risk asking outright. Will an alternator from a 2007 Forester XT turbo fit on a regular Forester X NA engine?

Hi 👋

I’m considering buying my first Subaru. I’m really interested in the Forester Hybrid. The financing deals for this model aren’t as good as other Subaru models, unfortunately.

Do you think that will continue to be the case through the end of the year, or are there likely to be any good deals on the Forester Hybrid between now and January?

Trying to decide if it’s worth it to keep waiting.

I'm looking for a replacement window for the rear driver side and can't find any I'm getting mixed answers if the wagon and the sedan are interchangeable any help is appreciated thanks!

I just finished putting things in my 16 crosstrek back together after replacing the valve cover gaskets. I have this 1 little connector that I don’t remember disconnecting (doesn’t mean I didn’t though). I should have taken pics before unhooking everything, I know. Either way I still would like to know where this lil guy should call home. Thanks in advance ❤️

2022 Impreza Hatchback, has check engine light popped up 2 days after filling the tank. Code is P0455

~48000km, Car drives very normally as usually. Without clearing the code myself, I tightened the gas cap and drive for more than 100km, check engine light still there.

Gas cap looks very normal to me (or I just dont know how to inspect?), had a shop put on another gas cap from another impreza, they said check engine light still popped up,

I am very new to car and what should I do/inspect/diagnose next? Would this be something still under warranty- checked warranty booklet, very less likely.

What would it possibly be other than gas cap?

Thanks everyone in advance.

Getting a clunky when turning at slow speeds and I'm thinking either tie rods, cv joints, or axles. I usually do the work myself but don't have the time or tools for the job.

I could do Fairfield or New Haven county but would go a bit further for a great shop

Earlier this year we bought a Tribeca with a cracked head. Threw in the known good engine from my old Outback 3.0R and a new radiator, flushed the coolant system 3 times and called it a day.

It's been running great ever since.

Now is our first time towing with it. Relatively light caravan of 1400kg ish. Car packed (quite full).

First days went fine. Includes highway and B roads, lots of hills etc.

Now we're in the south of France with the temperature being around 32C. Same amount of hills as before.

Everything went fine until we arrived at the campsite.

Whilst waiting on the parking lot, and letting the car idle, the temperature gradually shot up quite badly. The AC performance also went down. 3 above the middle, right below the red. When driving onto the campsite we turned on the heat inside the car and the temperature went down.

Is this normal behavior or should I be worried?

Perhaps I'm being a bit paranoid due to the nature of these cars, or perhaps I just shouldn't have let it sit idling for 15 minutes with the AC on full blast.

Any suggestions?

If I buy a cpo Subaru Crosstrek from a dealer, is the extended warranty negotiable? If so, what is reasonable?

Also, can you take the car home and call multiple dealers to see who would give the best deal, or do you have to get it from the dealership you bought it from?

With the fam!

Hi guys i saw this 2011 sti on marketplace I was wondering if it was a good deal and what should I look out for thank you!
