Can Subaru service save me money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are the symptoms of a damaged Subaru drivetrain system?

Noises toward the back of your Subaru Impreza, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

How often should I come in for Subaru Impreza differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

What causes a Impreza’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

A multitude of problems can activate your Impreza’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.

Can you clear the Impreza check engine light on your own?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my Impreza?

Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Impreza. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Impreza.

Is my Impreza’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Impreza’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Impreza forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

Follow Subaru's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.
