Can Subarus get engine sludge?

Yes, regular oil changes really ARE important! If you’re driving around with old motor oil, the broken-down fluid (and resulting debris) isn’t protecting your engine parts. In fact, it may even be causing slow damage to your Subaru Outback’s engine! Routine oil changes may seem like an insignificant maintenance task, but trust us – your future self will thank you.

Do I need to follow Subaru's recommended maintenance schedule?

Yes! Subaru has written a maintenance schedule for your Outback. Since they made your vehicle, they know it well! Your manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule gives you solid guidelines for the frequency of specific services, and it can help you know when to replace certain parts before they cause secondary issues in your car.

What should I tell the technician when I bring my Subaru to the shop?

Listen to your car (and your gut!). As the person who drives your vehicle day in and day out, you know it best! When you notice something that feels different while driving or just feels “off” to you, trust your gut! Often, small issues can be easily fixed if they’re caught early. But, letting even minor issues linger can spell real trouble for your car down the road. Don’t wait to get a repair service for your Subaru Outback.

The radiator is an important piece of your vehicle’s cooling system. It helps regulate engine temperature.

To properly maintain your radiator, you should replace the coolant/antifreeze in your 2013 Subaru Outback at the intervals recommended by Subaru. You might need radiator repair if you notice leaking coolant, overheating, or an illuminated low coolant dashboard light.
