Need Help! Which 2nd hand car to pick for coding ang long drives.

[blaster101]

Which generation of the Forester XT? I have the SJ platform (2013-2018) and it proved to be a very good all-around family vehicle not to mention sporty enough for my aggressive style of driving.

It is the best one for long drives. It can seat 5 people comfortably plus you still have a big trunk for cargo and stuff. It is also the quickest and fastest among the list. The Mazda 3 will handle better but the Forester XT offers more grip not to mention that it offers a high ground clearance like a PPV (Fortuner or Monty or Everest). The Forester XT drives like a tall sedan with the grip of an AWD vehicle. If you want a sedan form of the Forester XT, look for a WRX.

Hi sir, how about the maintenance of the FXT? i already have prospects that I would check after the ECQ. Its a 2015 model FXT. I just want to know how much would it take for the maintenance maybe compared to an Accord?. As people here say, I'm changing my preferences to a midsize sedan or CUV.

I just follow the maintenance instructions listed on the manual. Change oil and fluids regularly. Only difference with a FWD car is that AWD cars need gear oil change the same as you change the tranny fluid.

For a normal change oil, it requires 5.5L of FS 5w30 API SN oil plus the required oil filter. CVT fluid change is every 40k km actual mileage.
