Do any of you know where I can get Rear Shock absorbers for my 2010 Forester 2.0X? Wala pa kasi stock sa fusionR

Thank you for all the replies. Much appreciated mga sirs..
Subaru agent advised me that the discount is now back to only 200k (might get reduced even more as the year ends).
I wonder why considering that the New Fozzie will be coming soon.

Because if they tell the potential buyer that there will be better discounts / deals in the coming months, they won't have sales for the current month ... Sales agents will basically say anything just to make a sale or meet quota ...

Assuming you replace the rear shocks with stock auto-levelling function with the usual KYB Excel-G, the rear end may drop lower than the front so you need to adjust the springs to compensate the drop.

JP Wheels in Paranaque can provide a solution of properly using KYB shock as stock replacement. It was discussed within SFX FB community.

Thank you Istan and Egan101,

Right noe, I have this problem. When I go 30-45KPH and I let go of the accelerator, I feel as if the car is braking slightly on it’s own for a while then it starts to go normal again. Any thought on this?

I have no idea how the old tranny of the previous gen Forester behaves. Besides, why let go of the gas pedal at such speeds? Are you crawling in EDSA traffic?

I let go when I see incoming traffic and in smaller roads
