Can I prevent engine sludge in my Subaru?

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 XT’s engine! Routine oil changes may seem like an insignificant maintenance task, but trust us – your future self will thank you.

Is Subaru's recommended maintenance really that important?

One of your best defenses against paying for repair services is following Subaru's recommended maintenance schedule for 1988 XTs. Subaru built your vehicle and can best anticipate when something will need to be serviced or replaced.

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

When you bring your Subaru XT in for a repair service, give your technician as much information as possible. What's your driving style? What type of conditions do you drive in? Do you haul heavy loads? When and what was the last service you had if it was at a different repair shop? This information can help them make an informed diagnosis.

The radiator is an important piece of your vehicle’s cooling system. It assists in keeping your engine temperature within a safe range.

Radiator repair is essential for long-term engine health, and Subaru’s maintenance guidelines recommend that you replace the coolant in your 1988 Subaru XT at regular intervals.
