Hi All, Are the brake parts on the older cross treks the same as the new ones? I have a 2019 and I am looking to get some stainless steel brake lines, but options are limited. I was thinking I might need something from an older crosstrek or an impreza. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

2015 Impreza Premium I replaced front calipers and I can't get the air out of the lines. I replaced rear calipers 6 months ago and had the same issue. Limped it to a shop, they said they just needed to hit it with a vacuum bleeder and it was done in a jiffy. Fast forward to now, I have a...

I’ve seen posts about the rotor rubbing the dust shield but mine seems to be rubbing in an area that bending doesn’t affect. I’ve attached a pic and you can see the area that is rubbing at the bottom. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey everyone I just bought a used 2017 Crosstrek Limited with 26.7k miles. I originally wanted a truck, but this AWD beauty with insane mpg sang to me and I fell in love. I bought it at an off-lease dealership as it was the only Crosstrek around and I needed a new car desperately as my old one...

Hi there! This is my first post, so bear with me. I bought a 2013 Crosstrek in March and love it. It's at about 67k right now and I'm due for a checkup, so of course my first issue with my car happened on Christmas Eve/Christmas while I was at my parents' before I could schedule my appointment...

Hi all, in Aus & just got myself a 2012 XV, needs new rear discs/rotors... What brands are recommended please?

New pads and rotors about 10k miles ago. No issues until about 2-3k miles ago. When damp outside (but not raining), or any normal conditions, there are absolutely no braking issues. When it's raining a lot, my driver side front brakes grind really bad and don't feel like they are doing much. The...

Good day everyone, I had a question regarding my 2017 Subaru Crosstrek. Let me preface by saying my Subaru Crosstrek is performing just fine. I think its brakes are probably fine, too. But this point of curiosity has always crossed my mind: I've noticed after literally every scheduled...

Was getting tired of that spongy feel in the brake system of my 2017 XV limited so opted for an upgrade. I do use my xv to respond to medical and fire emergencies in a very hilly area - this means harder braking and accelerating using emergency lights on the street. It's got me wanting a bit...

2016 Hyper Blue Premium A/C is not very good at all. If the car is sitting in the shade, the A/C seems to do just okay. If it is hot, the A/C barely does anything. And if I get on it say going up a steep hill or getting onto the highway, it will start to blow warm air until i ease up on the...

Im going to buy a 2016 subaru crosstrek and I plan to change the stock wheels and tires to offroad type, but do I need to lift my crosstrek in order for them to fit and do I have to upgrade brakes if I do?

Hello, We have a 2015 Crosstrek that is about three months old with 3,500 Km on it. Mostly City driving and a couple trips to whistler. After driving for more than about an hour in stop and go traffic, the brakes begin to make a moderately loud click or light clunk when pressing the pedal...

Hey Everyone, just wondering... I had an interesting thing happen at the mechanics today. My Subaru dealer informed me a couple of days ago that I needed new brake pads. When I found out the price he was charging I decided to look around. I then took the car to a mechanic that I trust pretty...

So just picked my new cross trek about 3 weeks ago. I am loving it, handles well in snow, great gas milage. After looking through many threads I have started to customize my subaru a little bit. Stole a couple ideas I saw on here, sorry just looked to good to pass up. I need to take some...

Regarding regenerative braking, does anyone know if the brake pads immediately kick in when you depress the brake pedal or do they only kick in when the required braking power exceeds the braking capacity of the regenerative braking system? The reason I ask is it affects how I should drive to...

I need some help! I'm not going crazy, but I work on a mountain and after a long day at work I get into my car, start the car, and proceed down the mountain to the first stop sign. When I depress my brakes for the first time approaching this stop sign the brakes studder and it almost feels like...
