Subaru Service FAQs
How Often Do I Need a Subaru Oil Change?
Subaru oil changes are recommended every 6,000 miles or six months. Oil changes are the most common routine maintenance because oil provides the lubrication your engine needs. Letting your oil get too old makes it worse at what it needs to do, causing potential issues for your engine.
When Should I Check My Fluid Levels?
Fluids should be checked every two or three months. Our team can check on your transmission fluid, brake fluid, engine coolant, and power steering fluid to provide the performance you want from your vehicle.
How Often Should I Replace My Air Filters?
Your cabin air filter is recommended for change every 12,000 miles, while the engine air filter is recommended to be replaced at 30,000 miles. The longevity of your air filters changes based on conditions, with dusty and dirty regions needing air filter changes more frequently.
When to Replace My Brake Pads?
Brake conditions vary based on your driving habits, but Subaru recommends scheduling an inspection every 12,000 to 15,000 miles (or 12-15 months) to ensure your brakes continue performing as they should. Our experts can help you determine when to schedule a brake pad or rotor replacement to keep you safe and confident in the driver's seat.
How Long Will My Car Battery Last?
Car batteries should last roughly five years. Battery lifespans change based on weather conditions and driving habits, but our team can give you a more accurate idea of how long your battery has left. If you notice dimmer lights, your vehicle has difficulty starting, or electricals are reacting abnormally, you're probably close to needing a new battery.
When Should I Schedule Tire Servicing?
Tire rotations should be every six months of 6,000 to 8,000 miles while checking your air pressure can be done more frequently. Keeping your tires in their best condition ensures they wear evenly and provide the best performance and efficiency for as long as possible.
