Servicing at AD, no matter which AD, confirm need to wait at least half a day even for normal type of servicing and much more expensive than outside. I think why needs to wait half day; it is because they need to wash car for you.

You can always tell them no need wash

They called me. Its actually 1.6k for 2 years or 40k whichever comes first.

It works out to be 2 per year which includes the 40k I am going next week. They will also do a free 1 time change of brake pad.

 

Subsequent purchase of servicing package will enjoy 10-15% discount.

and during their Kansha Festival, the promotion for service package (4 servicing) will come with a free 5th servicing, which is very worth it.

in my case, my free 5th servicing happens to be the 40km servicing.

Hi guys my ride is XV. Today the TPMS alert popped up. When to the normal workshop to check. Tyre pressure all OK and it's likely the sensor faulty. Workshop said subaru newer version does not allow them to fix this sensor as they cannot access the sensor board even if they have the tools. Anyone encounter it before and how much does it cost? They said 2019 and newer subaru is like that

Did you go to a Subaru specialise workshop?

[Extremme]

I just go to the one I frequent. Not sure if they specialise in subaru. Any recommendations?

Hi guys, is a used 2020 XV worth getting? Is there anything to look out for when viewing? 

[Roadhogger]

@Kguanz Aircon

[ccc888]

@Kguanz nowadays used car mostly not worth….vy high depreciation and unknown repair cost

[Colin03]

@Kguanz the air con compressor is too small - breakdown after 4-5 years - lookout for it -

 

[Colin03]

@Kguanz the wheel's bearing too

 

[Jp66]

Indeed, Subaru's aircon very lousy. My Impreza kaput after 5 years. XV even worse, kaput immediately after 3 years.

[ccc888]

@Jp66 hmmm whats yr mileage when it kaput?

 

3years vy jialat….5years seems OK for >100k mileage
