  1. Lighting, Electrical, and EyeSight
    Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and (relatively) new to owning a Subaru. Unfortunately, my halogen headlight on the passenger side keeps disabling whenever my steering assisted headlights turn to the right. From what I gathered, there isn't really a fix for it, and my local Subaru...

    2 weeks ago we purchased a 2018 cross trek from a used lot in Reno Nevada. During covid-19 it went through 3 dealerships 2-3 auctions, was located on the east coast in Conneticut, and was never officially sold to anyone for an entire 1 year and a half until we bought it on the West Coast in...

    Greetings from the 5th gen impreza forums! I own the 2017 impreza sport and I envy your XVs headlights. I looked online, tried calling distributors and talked with dealerships, but nobody seems to know if the crosstrek headlamp assemblies would fit the 2017 impreza sport. I wanted to install...

    Hey Everyone, I have been dealing with a leaking issue in my Crosstrek for approximately six months now and was wondering if anyone else out there had a similar issue?

    I returned to my car the other night with a surprise, my driver side mirror dangling by its wire. Ugh, I guess it was in someones way? Anyway, its a clean break at the bracket that attaches to the door. My question is if anyone is familiar enough to know whether that bracket can be replaced or...

    I am trying to install tweeters into my 2018 base model that only came with 4 (door) speakers and have a couple questions. Sorry if this has been covered before but I've done a fair amount of searching and haven't found the answers. I'm fine with doing the connections and brackets myself. 1...

    Hey all, just bought a new 2018 Crosstrek Premium with the 6 spd Manual. I ended up taking it back to the dealer almost immediately after noticing a slight thumping / popping sound — a little like properly functioning twin cylinder motorcycle engine — coming from the left side of the engine. It...

    The user manual says that an iPhone can be paired to use CarPlay over Bluetooth in a '18 Crosstrek Limited. However, I cannot seem to to do. Does anyone have any insight into this? I can't find a definitive answer anywhere.

    Hello all, I am new to the Subaru world and my first car is a Subaru XV 2018 2.0. I got it three days ago and so far it's a joy to ride. One thing that I can't seem to figure out is the presence of two small lamps in each fog light compartment. When I turn on the fog lights the lamp in the...

    Hello - I live in New England and do a lot of driving. About 30,000 miles per year. I drive both in small town hills and on the highway. My driveway is steep and bumpy. I'm going shopping for a 2018 Crosstrek and am very cost conscious. But I don't want to be penny wise and pound foolish...

    Hello All, Has anyone installed a Fumoto on their 2018? I went to Fumoto's site and the 2018 isn't up there yet. I'm ready for my first oil change and wanted to install the valve. I have one on my 2015 WRX and it makes changing the oil a breeze. Thanks!

    Hello! I purchased my 2018 crosstrek a few days ago because my old car blew a head gasket. I had been planning on getting a new car for a little while now so it couldn't have happened at a better time. The Sunshine Orange really grabbed my eye so I couldn't resist. I love the car so far and...

    I received an email from our dealer today saying that our choice of the 2018 Cool Gray Khaki Limited with EyeSight is sold out. Our dealer is in Toronto, Canada, one of the biggest dealers in the country. So what does that mean? Subaru ran out of Cool Gray Khaki paint? I just don't get it. We...
