no major issue. i total stock. i think as long as dont kay kian mod here mod there should be fine.

 

during the last servicing, the ws did a engine flush after that got heat issue. i have no evident to point to the flush job and it was fixed by replacing the thermostat but...gee..

 

sold it and bought a new lexus gs.

Ok so I don't flush n mod then. Actually, stock forester very shiok liao, no need chg or tune liao. Sometimes wonder if ad purposely recommend such stuffs so can do repair jobs? Although developed by car brand mfg itself.

if want to mod must fully understand what we do. agreed, stock subaru (turbo version, no experience with their NA) is good enough for most driver.

 

try better eng oil and RON98 petrol you will feel quite a bit of feel

new forester only comes in 2.0XT...hmm...and it seems like they are price to sell aggressively

well at least its cheaper than rav4...160k

[Chucky2007]

Actually anyone looking at Land Rover FreelanderII? Priced at 180k with OMV 40k, ARF50k.. cost price already 170k+ with current COE. Power output same as Forestor XT. Freelander depreciation over 10year is $15k per year compared to Subaru 13.6k.. damn good deal if upfront budget can increase by 35k.

Weeks ago when I accidently run in during the launch day where only invited guest r allow, did try their forester, damn shiok lo.

 

Downside is the FC, as I though CVT(8 Speed) should be better at around 13Kml, but its only about 11Kml on paper.

Life is short for some... Don't think so much liao.. last time I keep thinking save $ no use..

 

Somemore just now today traumatized... When at lunch around office area, saw police tent with black body bag. Someone jumped from The Sail. My priority in work and life is to be the happiest person now.
