EXTENDED MAINTENANCE GUIDE
KM
Applicable Subaru Models:
2002-2011MY Turbocharged 4-cylinder engines (all models)
You won’t find many car manufacturers that bother to publish a maintenance guide that extends beyond the 160,000 km mark.
Of course, there’s a reason for that. But longtime Subaru owners know that their vehicles are capable of easily going past that
threshold and running strong well into the future. A vehicle with significant mileage needs special care, though, because parts do
wear out over time and an ounce of prevention is still worth a pound of cure. This is why Subaru Canada now offers a first for the industry – a
comprehensive extended maintenance schedule for our vehicles all the way up to 500,000 km. (In other words, many ounces of prevention.)
