Subaru PMS Costs

[number001]

40,000 km PMS today for my 2012 Forester NA. Estimate is 29k. Half of the cost is the ATF.

Anyone know how much the 40k PMS is for manual Subbies such as the WRX?

What was the MI casa's reason for replacing ATF at 40K kms only?

Owner's manual clearly indicate ATF change at 105K kms or 84months/7 yrs. (page 11-5) - 4 speed models for Europe.

4 speed models for general - every 100,000 kms or 48 months/ 4yrs.

Which old one?

Care to share with the forum your source for the 48K ATF change?

the same link above. click on which year your subi is. and look for the severe usage and atf interval is.

im actually wrong.... hehehe

I opened the link and its say 15000 miles.

30000 miles or 48k should be good for an atf change though. especially for stop&go traffic. which is considered severe driving condition

The link does not indicate when to replace the ATF (i clicked on 2012 and 2013). It just says inspect.

I would follow what is indicated on the owner's manual, irregardless of what the website says. MI casa cannot expected to be a trusted source of advice since they also need to make a buck here and there.

I just follow what they suggest while the car is in warranty.

After the warranty, it's my way or the highway

I just spoke to a guy from the service department from MI BGC and and to Vanessa (also with service) and inquired about flushing my 09 FXT's ATF. I specifically asked what AT fluid they are using and I got these:

1) Guy from service - Subaru ATF not the HP type
2) Vanessa of svc - Subaru ATF not the HP type

Question: Are they using the wrong fluid?
