2020 wrx premium has 217000 miles, stock except K&N air filter. Change oil every 6000 miles and tap out and remove debris from air filter every 3000 miles and clean every 6000.
Some of those markups are insane. I can get NGK laser iridium plugs for less than $70.
I just had my front lower control arms + bushings replaced on my 2017 Forester two weeks ago. The vehicle was shaking pretty hard at highway speeds. 56k miles.
Had my oil tested and it was recommended for 3500. I went with 3k as I do a lot of miles and use mobil 1 so my cost is relatively low.
have run penzz plat 5-30 for the entire life of the car almost, recently switched to the high mileage version as im pushing almost 150k miles on it.
All three I ran Rotella T6 5w-40. I ran 5K oil changes with OEM or WIX filters. All had Blackstone oil analysis done, and all passed every time with flying colors.
I requested Pilkington glass. The view through the glass is quite clear, but there were some noticeable wavy spots compared to OEM, and the new glass also had a gap between the glass and the dashboard that I didn’t notice before so I can see light leaking in through the cutout for the VIN while I’m driving.
I’m on my third battery in my 2018
My battery died on my ‘15 Outback within a year of my buying the car brand new off the lot. I noticed some issues with the lift gate and the car was having problems starting at times. It was a bad cell in the battery so it needed to be replaced.
I had this issue as well, one day the car wouldn’t turn over. Then it would. Then there was no power. Then it would start. Over several days and weeks this would happen. It was explained to me that the Subaru batteries that come from the factory are made to hold just barely enough power to start the car. If that power is diminished in even the slightest degree, like with normal usage in the first 50k miles, then the battery does not have enough charge to do its basic task anymore, rendering it useless. As I understood it, the batteries in the new cars are not up to snuff.
