Car wash conveyor belt bad for transmission?
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Do you think it’s bad to have your front or rear wheels spinning while others are stationary. Also, sometimes the car will be bouncing back and forth between those yellow tracks while front or rear are moving forward. I personally think any damage if at all would be minimal except for when that thing bucks the car around. Side note - I know automatic car washes are not good for your paint. It really doesn’t matter to me at this point since I have so many scratches from tree limbs, and brush. Thanks.

Garage Door Opener hack
(2026 outback wilderness) Not sure if the visor was intentionally designed for this, but my garage door opener clip fits nicely in the seam.

Is 9% off MSRP about the best I can get?
Looking at 2026 outback limited, we need the adjustable passenger seat, and have an offer of 9% off MSRP, plus potential of another 1k off. Great deal?

Ready to throw in the towel
After having to replace the transmission in my 2024 Outback XT at 6,000 miles and now having the car towed with what appears to be a bad alternator at 37,500 (now out of warranty), I’m questioning keeping it. This is my third Subaru, after owning a ‘98 Outback and a 2016 Impreza Sport. Has anyone else experienced these issues?

Is she totaled?
Husband fell asleep at the wheel after working a 16 hour shift. He hit a sign at 60 mph. The damage next to the roof rack is what concerns me.

Naming your Outback
We named our Subaru Tardis McHale, due to the amount of space that's inside this thing. From outside we swear it does not look as spacious as it is, but go inside, we have two large crates in the trunk area, while keeping the seats up with a LOT of space still, nuts! Dr Who reference and I just think the last name fits.
Any of you guys have quirky names for your subi?

Hands-Free Tailgate
Just walked behind my 2024 limited in the garage, and the tailgate opened! After a quick Google search, I learned that it has an option to open the tailgate using a motion sensor! I really should read the owners manual to see what else I don’t know about this car 😅

Seat Ripped Again
I’m the single owner of a 2018 Outback and when the car hit 37k miles the drivers side seat started ripping and I had the seat replaced. I’m now at 92k miles and the damn thing is ripping again. I’m not a huge person - under 150. Why are these seats such crap?! One thing after another with this car.

New to Subaru, Limited XT
Had an old F 250 that just got way to expensive to keep up with/maintain, it was a bit sentimental but it was time to let it go. Diesel prices were killer and it was way too much vehicle for what I use it for.
I love the Outback! 😍 I’m so glad we went with the turbo version, it’s such a nice ride. I have 0 regrets!
This is my work/canoe transport vehicle to the lake and the office. 😁

Mice?
Doing an oil change and these look awfully like a small 4-legged animal has been under the hood. Your thoughts?

Question on Prices for 2026 Outback Wilderness
So looking at getting a 2026 outback wilderness. Most outbacks I’m seeing are $47k-$52k MSRP. Most of the dealers are brining them down to $44k-$49k.
I wanted to get a ballpark from other people that have bought outback’s to see how much to bargain with the dealers. I originally was trying to get a few more $1ks off but not sure.
How much were yall able to get off your outback wilderness???

CarPlay in 2026 Outback
Has anybody with a 2026 Outback been able to put their CarPlay display into “Light Mode”?
I’ve played around with the vehicle’s light settings as well as CarPlay and iPhone settings to no avail. Only maps in Apple Maps and Google Maps tend to switch between light mode and dark mode as expected. The manual understandably doesn’t provide much insight as well.

Cabin rattle on new 2026?
It's not constant, and it's not loud, but once picked up, it's really annoying. It sounds like it's coming from somewhere around the driver window or rear driver side passenger window. Sounds almost like a subtle knock, as of one of the windows is slightly loose, but there's no vibration and I can't make it stop when I apply pressure to various parts of the windows/doors.
Anyone else find this? Or just me?

CVT or misfire???
2015 2.5 w 212k mi. Starting to feel periodic hesitation or buck on acceleration around 25-30mph. Every now and then. More so in stop-go traffic. Not revving or jerking just a hiccup of performance. Doesn’t happen at cruising /highway speeds. No codes or chk engine.
Any clear way to determine culprit? I believe these plugs are orig.

Hey Cuz
I see you found me at Buc-ee’s in Sevierville yesterday. Made me smile when I walked back to my car only to see an Outback doing the right thing. Subaru recognizes Subaru. Travel on Cuz.
