Here we ago again. We literally just had a certified Subaru mechanic replace my daughter’s 2013 Outback engine (yep, it was one of the models included in the glass action lawsuit). Her car had 104,000 and because it was over the 100k extended warranty, SoA offered her $1000 credit for a $9000...

Hello! First time Subaru owner question here, but what is the typical mileage anyone has seen Subarus reach if they are routinely serviced on every 6000 miles as recommended? I have heard some interesting reliability issues from some users… Can I “expect?” 200,000+ miles out of my car if...

Hey y'all, I've been stressed out lately about a car issue I'm having and I thought it might be worth getting your opinions on what to do. I have a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek, which I bought brand new from the dealership. It currently has about 22,000 miles on it. A few months ago, I was rear-ended...

I am looking for advice on this bummer situation. I own a 2013 Crosstrek XV with about 90K, took it into the dealer for a oil change and 21 pt inspection. I had mentioned that I was needing to add oil after about 3500K miles and knocking noise I hear around 40mph, then seems to dissipate upon...

I bought my first Crosstrek new in 2013 and traded it for a new one in 2018. A few months ago, I noticed a squeaking sound when starting. I assumed it was some kind of belt friction. A few weeks ago, it started a new issue where sometimes it wouldn't start at all on the first crank - squeaking...

Hey everyone my head gaskets have recently started to fail on my 2013 Xv 2.0i @(131256) miles and I was wondering if anyone had any good seal kits I could buy to get all the seals I need at once w/o buying a bunch of seals from different places thanks y’all.

Has anyone had any issues with the P2764 error code lately? I bought my 2014 Crosstrek XV Used a year ago in February, I had no issues prior, then my Brake Light Switch became faulty. Had that fixed by the Subaru dealer under the recall, but all my lights (Hill Assist, Slick resist, ABS, Check...

Hi, I recently bought a 2013 automatic subaru crosstrek, the car seemed in great condition no previous accidents etc. however a week in and I was already having trouble. my current issue which I can't seemed to find much on specifically is that after driving highway for around 30min when...

Hi! So I got a 2015 Crosstrek XV, and few month ago I decided to put an almost 3inch lift kit (spacers) with some off road tires. After those upgrades, I notice when I step on the gas, I hear a knocking sound from the driver side, I can almost feel it on the gas pedal, and it knocked faster the...

I have a 2019 Crosstrek 6MT with around 5500 miles on it, and I just took it in for the first oil change. When I left the dealership, it drove differently but I kept driving because I figured it was in my head as I was expecting a problem. The car lurches and bogs down after gear shifts, and it...

I have my ‘18 Limited 18 months now and I’m still getting this pretty loud ticking sound when I shut off the engine. I’m guessing it sounds like oil dripping on a hot pan. Is this normal?

Ive read alot about this on different forums and websites, but most of the answers are either vague or not in agreement. I want to bring it up here is anyone has had similar problems. I really just wanna know if I need to take it to a subaru dealership or not. Can I get an indication of how...

I bought my 2016 hyper blue crosstrek new in Nov. 2015. I have 44k miles on it. I've kept up with regular maintenance and always at the dealer. I'm having 2 issues with it: 1. The key will intermittently get stuck in the ignition when I turn the car off. I have to start the car 3-4 times...

I have just recently bought a new 2018 crosstrex premium automatic, and have less than 1500 miles.... and this car has stalled on me three time now... does anyone know what's going on?

At the Beijing autoshow in late April Subaru announced two Hybrid models for the Chinese market. This is not the plugin hybrid that is expected to hit the US market later this year. The new Forester and the XV/Crosstrek are available with the "Intelligent Boxer" technology. It adds an electric...

Hey there guys, my first post and I come seeking some wisdom and answers haha. I bought this car from a private party at around 86k miles. The previous history with the vehicle was literally perfect, except for the part about the excessive oil consumption, but luckily it was replaced as per...

Hi all, I have been thinking about this for almost a month now and I thought I'd ask you guys. Do you think it'd be possible to put FA20 uneven exhaust headers on the Crosstrek's FB20? I can't make a decision becuase I'm worried that the pipes will run into the front passenger driveline. Even...

New to the Forum, and I can't find anything about this, so I thought I would ask. I purchased my 2013 Crosstrek used about 18 months ago and have loved it. But, within the last month or so, it has gotten a lot louder. I know that when it starts up cold it runs higher RPMs until it has warmed...

Hi My 3,5 year old Subaru XV with the FB20 gasoline engine has developed a problem - it has started to make a strange sound while idle and especially when the revs come down. I have included a sound clip for you to listen on this link. The specific sound is first heard at 0:07 and is more...

This may be a dumb question, but do the BRZ and XV have the same 2.0L engine? If so, is it just internals that give the BRZ an extra 52hp? Would be neat just to get those internal parts have 200hp for the XV... Just a thought...
