Subaru Forester Common Problems & Maintenance Tips
First, high oil consumption and head gasket failure. Actually, based on the most complained problem collected from Subaru Forester owners, we can assume the engine in it goes wrong. Drivers also told that the engine performance decreased dramatically such as loss of power when acceleration, inability to start, poor fuel economy and so on. Blown head gasket you should check certainly. And if you do not want to waste more money on oil in your Subaru Forester, you had better get the Forester air filter, Forester oil filter, Forester lash adjuster and other engine parts.
Second, braking and transmission failures. As braking system basically decides your driving safety, so you should never be too careful. According to Subaru Forester drivers, they would have a noisy brakes and pulsating brake pedals. Sometimes, the brakes would respond poorly. This problem could be solved simply by replacing the old brake pad set. As for transmission failure, it manifests as difficulty shifting gears, making grinding noises and inability to switch back to two-wheel driver or four-wheel drive modes. Once these symptoms also appear on your Subaru Forester, you should get the transfer case cover checked.
As a matter of fact, there are many auto parts in Subaru Forester should be maintained well if you want it to give its full play all the time. It is very common that modern vehicles are all equipped with many electrical parts. In Subaru Forester, power window switch is a more vulnerable part if be exposed to too many repeated usage times. If windows could not work properly or not work at all, you should replace the power window switch. Wiper blade and wiper arm, however, are responsible for providing better driving visibility. They should be on your maintenance list, too.
