Here's my story, I've got a Ford Laser at the moment that is great on fuel and just getting around. I'm looking for an SUV to suit my weekend activities of Snowboarding, Surfing and Mountain Biking, but I don't want to go to far away from the efficiency of my laser and how good it is as a run...
Subaru has taken the wraps off of its all-new Forester ahead of the Los Angeles Auto Show. The Forester, a favorite here at WR, borrows its looks from the well-received Impreza/XV Crosstrek, with aggressively styled headlights and a split grille. Seventeen-inch wheels come standard, while...
The Forester 2.5XT has a couple things going for it that can be found in tandem in many other Subarus, but it is an especially nice combination, and worth mentioning straightaway: its turbocharged boxer engine, and all-wheel drive.
My mom bought a Subaru Forester this summer, (not sure what model, but it's new, not used, so it's probably this year's) and she recently discovered that there is a problem... you're not technically supposed to put chains on it. In the owner's manual it says 2 different things: one page says you...

Hello.
Upon getting a 2003 Subaru Forester, I was involved in some damages. All in all, I clipped the front right corner (beneath the headlight) against the garage. The region below the headlight is dented in (significantly), but the headlight is fine. The headlight has some scratches on it...
problems after a decade? I am considering to buy Subaru Forester 2010, for my mom, since it seems like a good small suv. Would you say this vehicle is good quality vehicle like Honda and Toyota (despite Toyota's current problem). Is this suv smaller than Ford Escape?
Also what other SMALL SUV's...
I live in CT, I have a 2005 subaru forester and want to change the oil myself. It reconmends that I use 5W30. But I want to use 10W-30 instead. would it be OK to use 10-30 if so would it damage the engine or have any neg. effects.
I am car shopping. I can get a new CX-9 Grand Touring for around $27k and a new 09 Forester XT Limited for around the same or slightly less. I know the reduction on the 08 CX-9 is a lot more than the Forester. But, I wonder which is the better car?
How come it is almost impossible to remove the power steering fluid cap on this car, not only is it almost buried underneath the air intake. It does not have a gasket, has a cone-like plastic structure under it and does not move when you put it back on? Sorry to ramble on about a relatively...
off the accelerator. Why? This may have first occured after I got 2 brake pads replaced. Then I got the other 2 replaced. Does that have anything to do with it? If not, what is causing this?
Thanks, in advance, for your help, people :)
I got the first 2 brake pads around 4 months ago; the...

Problem occurs when engine is cold. The engine will start and tend to stay lit when throttling back to idle. However for about the 1st minute or two advancing the throttle will tend to kill the engine, unless I quickly bring it back to idle. After about two minutes of operation everything is...

I am about to buy my first new car. I never look at new cars, so i don't really know what's out there right now, but these ones are appealing. I need lots of room for a dog and band equipment. I want decent factory stereo with iPod connection. I would like it to have a high green score. What...
the repair shop said they have to take apart the dashboard to get to it. Just wondering if there is anyone here that was able to easily access it because I know they will charge hours of labor just to change a simpe module.
And who knows how much they will charge for the module itself?!?
