2014 Subaru Forester

[zeardz]

Sir ano po ba fuel consumption ng 2014 Forester? and which is which, Subaru Forester 2.0i L or 2.0.i Premium. Im planning to have one this year end. thanks

[arisrites]

So far I'm getting around 7-8 k/l mixed city/hway driving (iPremium). It will get better according to my SA after the first PMS.2.0 iL and iP have the same engine config so expect a similar fuel consumption.

Matipid sa h-way ha. Nice. Hindi din daw nagkakalayo with the FXT diba. Sa city driving lang nagkakalayo.

Sabi ng mga naka XT pangarap daw sa kanila yung ganyang FC...safe to say na pag dating sa FC lamang ng konti sa tipid yung NA, pero pag dating sa kilig factor ng hataw experience malayo ang XT...

Nakalimutan ko i switch yung sport mode kaya pakiramdam ko mas malakas pa ang hatak ng innova disesel ko sa overtaking...medyo matamlay si fozzie...sayang di ko nasubukan yung difference ng sport at intelligent mode.

s-mode works well in overtaking i've tried several times. There's a gentle nudge of acceleration on every shift. Feels like a bit of an xt na rin (exagerating) sabe ng friend ko who has an xt. Just don't forget to switch back to i-mode otherwise you might burn more fuel on an unnecessary situation.

Sayang nakalimutan ko i try, minsan lang mag out of town..kaya pala sabi ko parang mas responsive pa yung innova at lancer ex ko...inisip ko nalang kasi since same 150ish hp sila ni lancer pero mas mabigat ang fozzie kaya siguro matamlay. Meron pa pala isang alas na di ko nagamit.

Guys do you experience the vibration of the engine of XT when idle? Sumakay ako sa FXT 2013 ng friend ko, pag naka idle nanginginig yung engine parang mamamatay, actually nakaka hilo sya dahil for almost 20mins naka idle di sya nawawala, ganun din ba yung mga naka forester xt? I'm planning to get one na next week. Thanks

i've never experience such in my i-premium or perhaps not yet. The engine's so quiet that you might think that' is the engine running'. I've read some post in the past that there was that vibration issues in some units on XT but it's tolerable naman daw.Try to scroll down the past post from xt owners.

Mine used to vibrate intermittently during idle. Not much, i can only feel on the steering wheel. But after the PAK update everything is smooth.

[SkyeEvo]

Hi koji, your is xt? I think only with turbo has this problem.

yup. XT.

i haven't heard of this problem in the NA engine. pero the PAK update are part of a recall and done free by MI. new xt units from casa's should be updated already. they issued the recall about 3 weeks ago.

[imperialv]

Before the release of my unit, MI had already updated the ECU...

yup. XT.

Baka puro sport mode ka na niyan. hehehe

Pero sa city driving hindi talaga need acceleration unless naghahanap ka sakit nang ulo. Talo ka pa din sa MC at mga balasubas na PUV sa daan.

Guys any suggestion which gas is much better for Forester XT, petron blaze or xcs?

And for the free tint do you guys get free tint also including the moon roof?

Thanks

It should be 95 octane for the xt. I use unleaded or 93 octane for my I-Premium but it's suggested to use 95 octane but casa said unleaded will be fine. No free tint on my sunroof/moonroof.

All gasoline types in the Philippines are unleaded. If the manual states that you use 95 octane then better to follow it. Using lower octane than required will cause engine to knock and degrade performance which might make it consume more fuel.

Take it from Walter.

Have A Forester XT.. with 4k kms. mileage.. have not experience vibration on the engine at all.. normal lang silent always... my only problem is when during cold starts in the morning.. while Blue temperature light is on, Missing or weak brakes while engine is cold.. ( almost crashed my XT at the steel gates in our garage while on reverse.. ). The Brakes will be Normal once the engine heats up... Weird lang and was very disappointed.

But just recently had the PAK update as MI called me up.. Voila!! No more brakes problem after the update.

it seems SUBARU knew all along the problem. hope this helps.

I use shell nitro. Only because it's location is convenient for me. The manual says use 95 octane, so I use 95.

I didn't ask for the free tint in the moon roof. Because I thought the glass is tinted like the XV. Wrong! It was very clear. So, I just had it tinted outside with 3M BC dark. I don't know if they are willing to give the moonroof tint for free.
