    Hi all! I need some help with my Subaru and I’m hoping someone has some advice. I have a 2013 Crosstrek xv, last summer While driving all my dash lights came on at once, I took it to the dealership and they said I need to have my cvt valve body replaced. I had them do the work and ever since...

    I have a 2018 with the 6 speed manual trans and just under 105k miles. As long as I can remember it has made an intermittent, light chugging noise which I assumed was just some AC or electrical component, but recently the noise has gotten much louder and has started squeaking and then stopping...

    Hey there, I am new to this site and thought I would just ask my question here where an actual person who probably knows what they are talking about can assist in answering my questions or at the very least can point me in the right direction, where as Google was not really helpful at all...

    I bought Crosstrek Limited 2018 in April 2021, currently has 40K miles on it. Had intermediate humming noise after I bought it when driving above 70 MPH.

    Hey guys, So I recently purchased my 19 XV CROSSTREK with 21k on the odometer in February. Since then I’ve put another 7k on. New tires, oil, and wipers have been the only items replaced. Since probably the first week of owning the car I’ve noticed several things with the transmission. I should...

  9. Crosstrek Shopping
    My wife and I are looking to buy a used Crosstrek. The 2013 XV. In doing some research I'm seeing that it had some problems with the transmission. However, on a few other forums/websites people are saying the transmission isn't really an issue. I'm just wondering. Do you have the 2013 XV? How...

    Edit: I found it. I am looking to change the front diff / gear oil and realized that I can't locate a dipstick, despite the service manual and parts diagram saying there is one. I believe I've found where one would go... there were leaves in there. I picked out what I could and felt around with...

    Getting my valve body replaced on the CVT and need to find out the "relearn' procedure. Anyone know if this is the correct one for a 2015 XV crosstrek?

    The Story: So... my 2014 Crosstrek has about 40k miles on it and I wanted to run some Motor Medic through the engine before changing the oil. I've found that it really helps with keeping the engine idling smooth, and since I purchased the car secondhand, I wanted to make sure the engine was nice...

    I have a 2013 Crosstrek with about 90,000mi on it. I bought the car in for the 90,000mi service. The repair shop gave the car a once over and said there was some 'Zinging' coming from the transmission and it could go any time. He said the soluiton would be to think about getting a new...

    Hey everyone, mechanical question here that maybe someone has experienced or has an idea about. My '15XV has a weird noise coming from I think the transmission. On a hot engine (so this happens usually in the afternoon or after driving a while, not the mornings), When I accelerate I get...

  19. Engine and Drivetrain
    I have a 2014 Crosstrek and have been having an intermittent problem with my manual transmission (for the past few months). Sometimes it won't allow me to downshift (usually from 5th) into any other gear without me having to double-clutch. I haven't found any correlation to driving style or...
