About the Forester
The Subaru Forester (AWD SUV) is a popular choice with south-east Melbourne drivers, and it stays affordable to run when it’s serviced on time with the right parts and oils.
We service Subaru to the correct schedule and use the right parts and oils for your exact Forester — usually for less than the dealer.
Common Forester service points
The things we keep an eye on with the Forester: regular oil and filter services, the all-wheel-drive and transmission (CVT) fluid services, the boxer engine’s cooling and any oil leaks, brakes and suspension. On the Forester, staying ahead of the schedule is the difference between cheap upkeep and an expensive surprise.
Everything is quoted in writing up front, so you always know what your Forester is getting and why.
