Subaru Crosstrek Service Intervals

What is the Subaru Crosstrek Maintenance Schedule?

If you are searching for a rugged and reliable SUV, the Subaru Crosstrek is one of the top models that you can get. The Crosstrek is designed to withstand the elements, and it has some of the best reliability ratings in its class. While the Crosstrek will easily accompany you to all the places you want to go, it also requires maintenance and service periodically to continue working at its best. While the ideal Subaru Crosstrek maintenance schedule might vary slightly based on your specific model year and trim, Subaru Crosstrek service intervals usually start at 15,000 miles. You may need to take your car in before that for an oil change as well.

15,000-Mile Service

To keep the Crosstrek going strong, Subaru recommends four main service intervals. The first major service milestone for your Subaru Crosstrek is 15,000 miles. When your car reaches this point, it will need to have its oil changed again. For most models, Subaru recommends an oil change every 8,000 miles for good health. The Subaru Crosstrek will have its engine filter inspected, and the engine filter might also be replaced at this time. All four tires are inspected individually for remaining tread and uneven wear. The car may have its tires balanced and rotated if necessary.

30,000-Mile Service

When the car reaches 30,000 miles, it will have another engine filter change and oil change. A tire rotation once again takes place at 30,000 miles. The transmission fluid is checked at 30,000 miles. However, if you drive in more strenuous or extreme conditions, the transmission oil may need to be checked before the car reaches this point. The clutch will get checked if your Subaru has a manual transmission, and the clutch fluid will need to be checked as well. The brake fluid should also be changed by 30,000 miles.

60,000-Mile Service

When the Crosstrek gets to 60,000 miles, it will need a replacement engine filter. However, the filter may need to be changed more often if you drive your Subaru in dusty or dry conditions. The hoses and radiator are inspected as well, along with the car's cooling system. A knowledgeable Subaru mechanic will also look at the car's fuel system, fuel lines, and connecting hoses and components.

90,000-Mile Service

By the time your Crosstrek gets to 90,000 miles, it will require a full flush of the major fluids in the system, including the engine, braking, transmission, and power steering fluids. The tires are rotated and balanced, and the Crosstrek may be due for a new battery.
