Subaru Crosstrek Maintenance Schedule
Your Subaru Crosstrek is a dependable vehicle designed to accompany you for many years, and here at Subaru of Utica, near Utica, Yorkville, Rome, and New Hartford, New York, we want to guide you with the required maintenance schedule. Like any car, it requires proper care and maintenance to ensure longevity. Typically, your owner's manual serves as a guide, detailing the specific maintenance procedures and optimal timing for their execution.
We recommend you check your owner’s manual to determine when to do your maintenance schedule. However, here are some key scheduled maintenance milestones you should be prepared for whatever happens first.
Six Months or 6,000 miles
For this first maintenance, you need to rotate and inspect the tires. Replace the engine oil and the engine oil filter. This should be done every six months as long as you have the vehicle. When the vehicle is used under severe driving conditions, the engine oil and filter should be changed every 3,000 miles or three months.
One Year or 12,000 Miles
Every year, there are also some additional services you will want to complete. On top of the services you should have completed every six months when that yearly appointment comes up, you will also want to evaluate the functionality of the clutch and examine the condition of the disc brake pads. Additionally, inspect the disc, front and rear axle boots, and joints.
Check out the status of the steering and suspension components, the brake lines, and the operation of both parking and service brake systems. This inspection should take place every year.
For vehicles subjected to severe driving conditions, consider the potential need to replace these components possibly around the 15,000-mile mark.
30 Months or 30,000 Miles
On top of the regular services mentioned above, make sure you inspect the drive belt(s) and fuel systems, lines & connections as well as the cooling system. Also, it is time to replace the air cleaner element.
Consider This About Your Subaru Maintenance Schedule
There are some habits or situations you can consider to keep your Subaru in peak condition.
- In extremely dusty environments, conduct more frequent inspections of the air cleaner element.
- Replace a tire when the tread wear indicator becomes a solid band across the tread, indicating that the remaining tread has worn down to 0.063 inches or less.
- To prevent cooling system leaks, ensure the addition of a Genuine Subaru Cooling System Conditioner whenever coolant replacement is performed.
Vehicle maintenance is an important factor for proper vehicle operation. To maintain your car’s health, make it a habit to ensure that fluid levels are checked frequently by the instructions in your owner’s manual.
