Frequently Asked Questions About Subaru Repair
What Makes Subaru Boxer Engines Unique?
The Subaru BOXER engine is renowned for its horizontally opposed cylinder design, where pistons lie flat and move like a boxer’s fists. This unique configuration results in a lower center of gravity, which significantly enhances stability, reduces vibration for a smoother ride, and allows for a more symmetrical drivetrain – a perfect match for Subaru’s Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system. This design also contributes to enhanced safety, as the engine can drop below the passenger compartment in a severe frontal collision.
Why Are Genuine Subaru Parts Important?
Genuine Subaru Parts are crucial because they are designed, manufactured, and rigorously tested to the exact specifications and quality standards of your original Subaru components. This ensures a precise fit, optimal performance, and superior durability, protecting your vehicle’s integrity, safety features, and often, its warranty. Using genuine parts helps maintain your Subaru’s legendary reliability and resale value.
How Often Should I Service My Subaru?
While specific intervals vary by model and driving conditions, most Subaru vehicles typically require routine service every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. This generally includes oil changes, tire rotations, and comprehensive inspections. More detailed services occur at longer intervals, such as 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000 miles. Always refer to your owner’s manual or consult with our service advisors for the most accurate and personalized maintenance schedule for your specific Subaru.
What Should I Know About Subaru Collision Repairs?
If your Subaru is involved in a collision, it’s vital to ensure repairs are done correctly to restore its safety and structural integrity. Subaru strongly recommends using a Subaru Certified Collision Center and Genuine Subaru Collision Parts. These centers have factory-trained technicians, specialized tools, and follow Subaru’s specific repair procedures, which are crucial for the proper function of advanced safety systems like EyeSight®. Always insist on genuine parts and certified repair methods to protect your vehicle’s post-collision safety and value.
