2006 Subaru Baja Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Subaru Baja to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Baja. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Baja maintenance. Just follow your 2006 Subaru Baja maintenance schedule!

Subaru knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Baja's life, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 2006 Subaru Baja problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2006 Subaru Baja for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Baja's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2006 Subaru Baja? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Baja may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Subaru Baja battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Subaru Baja could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 2006 Subaru Baja's engine run smoother. To learn how often Subaru recommends you have the oil changed in your 2006 Baja, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2006 Subaru Baja? We can help with that, too!

Routine upkeep for your Subaru Baja suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones.

To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Subaru Baja's steering and suspension system.

Without routine Subaru Baja maintenance, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C.

Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Subaru Baja’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too.
