Toyo Tires

Toyo RA-1 - I bought a set of these to run on wet days or when there is real threat of rain. On a dry day, especially with full tread, they don't live up to the other three tires up there. But on a cooler day, especially a slightly wet or wet one, these tires can move. I also find them the easiest of these four to recover from a slide

Pros: good on wet days
Cons: not good on dry days
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ

Rating 4.0

Penzoil platinum held up nicely. A hair thinner and less active additive than Valvoline but wear looks great.

Pros: wear looks great
Cons: hair thinner, less additive

Put new tires on the crosstrek (some Goodyear from Costco) and they are better but I think that's to be expected.

Pros: better than stock

OEM Subaru Battery

I'm still running on the original battery, which does surprisingly well until subzero temps set in, and then the poor thing just cries a lot and breaks my heart, so I jump it with my Noco and things are fine.

Pros: does well in mild temps
Cons: poor in subzero temps

EBC Brake pads

I’ve driven roughly 150 miles and I’ve done EBC’s suggested bed in process. But they’re still squealing when I’m coasting from 0-40mph. The squealing sounds like the wear indicator rubbing on the rotor, but they’re brand new and nowhere close to the rotor. Do they take longer to bed in? The squealing is really high pitched and annoying

Cons: high pitched squealing
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 150 km

OEM Subaru Starter motor
abierosete
  • Cranking:
Rating 1.0

My CPO Base Impreza 2019, with 26k miles, wouldn’t start. The starter motor failed and that part is out of warranty. I was just pissed because I had the car for less than 2 years.

Cons: premature failure, out of warranty
Vehicle: Subaru Impreza
Mileage: 41843 km
