Subaru Forester

Is the Forester's spare tire really just the steel rimmed kind?

Got a flat the other day and was really surprised because the spare wasn't the same as the other 4 rims.

thanks!

Yes, to save weight

Yes, it also says on the oil cap and manual, i dont know if the service manager from alabang is pulling my leg, he said they have a memo from japan saying use 10w 40 here coz of the weather here, i didnt argue coz service until 10k kms was free, my next change oil will be 5w 30, im looking at royal purple, some say yehey, some say nay..

Called up Subaru BGC to schedule my 1st month service. They told me they need to change the oil and oil filter. They also said they are using Motul 5w40 synthetic oil for the FA20DIT. I asked why as the manual requires 5w30. They said it was advised by Motor Image Singapore due to the weather conditions here in the Philippines. They say it will cost me P585 per liter (5 liters required) for the Motul 5w40. I can bring my own oil but I have to pay P50 per liter for the corkage fee.

They told me they only suggest using Motul or Shell Ultra for their engines. I might have to source for some dealers who can offer me 5w30 oils for 450 or less per liter.

Subaru BGC is offering 80k discount plus free 1-year maintenance cost on all Forester models.

If you want a big discount, the Levorg 1.6L turbo wagon is offered at a 200k discount.

possible bang magkaroon ng 200K discount ang forester?
when ba nilabas yung bagong face lift nila?
kakasya ba ang mtb bike sa loob ng XT? i heard na kapag may sunroof mas mababa ang ceiling ng kotse

was planning to buy one, sobrang bitin ako sa 2.0-L and 2.0-P, if only 2.0-P has bigger engine baka bilhin ko ang 2.0-P pero since ganyan ang setup nila sa variant, no choice ako, i'll go for XT

*RichardYap - April lumabas yung facelifted Forester. The big discounts was applied to MY2015 and pre-facelifted 2016 models. Best approach would be to give your contact details to a Subaru sales agent and inform him that you will be interested on a unit when a big discount is offered. If you need the extra oomph, then go for the XT. If you just need the extra features, go for the 2.0i-P. However, the base model 2.0i-L is already loaded with features compared to other base model CUVs.
