Subaru parts reviews

I swapped my fog light bulbs out for some Hella-brand yellows, but they ain’ hella yellow lol. Still, I like the look.

I'm 2+ years and 47,000 miles in to the factory battery and haven't had an issue.

Couldn’t believe it lasted that long.

3yrs in on my 22 XT ,still good

I have a 2015 OB, just surpassed 200k. This car has gone coast to coast, up to the Great Lakes, across to PA, through the desert, everywhere, all for DOG SHOWS and sports. The past 6 weeks I had two trips to TN, one to MO, and one to KY. It has hair in it that’ll never get out again, but I bought this vehicle to haul them as well as equipment and people. Worst thing to happen to it is my AC went out this year (I live in Texas) and I had to get a new compressor for it.

The reality is that they need more thoughtful and consistent maintenance than other cars, and the maintenance tends to cost a bit more.

As long as you pony up the effort and money to maintain them, they are very reliable.

And I'll repeat, again, as I have so many times: Change your CVT fluid every 30k miles.

Just got a rock chip on my 2025 Ascent with only 2400 miles. We weren't anywhere close to the car in front of us so we don't even understand how it happened. On the edge of the black area around all the camera stuff. Heading to get it repaired now so it hopefully doesn't spread. Wish us luck.

The OEM Subaru battery does not have a lot of reserve power.

It started overheating while I was on I-95, and I managed to limp it to an off-ramp. It needed a new radiator, and that was the last straw for me.

The cap which came on the Koyorad is probably a two way cap. If so it needs to be replaced with a Subaru one way cap.
