  1. General Troubleshooting and Technical Help
    Hi Everyone, am hoping someone has encountered this and maybe has a suggestion or a comment. Thanks for taking the time. We have a 2015 Subaru Forrester with an automatic transmission. We were on the road last night, weather was a balmy 30 degrees Celsius below zero with strong winds and...

    Brand New here. ☺️ My 2015 Forester Will Not Pair With My New iPhone SE.😖 Any ideas? I don’t know if this is an Apple or a Subaru issue, if it just me! (I had no problems with my iPhone 7) Is my Subaru software outdated? If so, can I get it updated? ANY ideas would help. Thank you so much! 😊
  3. General Troubleshooting and Technical Help
    So I've used the search feature on the forum for the last hour - I've found a bit of knowledge but need more. Wife's 2015 2.5 CVT (170 000km) is presenting with a very much speed oriented "howl", not engine rpm as have dropped it into neutral at "howl speed" - no change. Switched to manual...
  4. General Troubleshooting and Technical Help
    Hey fam, while my 2015 2.5i Touring is in the shop for a completely unrelated issue (needs a new transmission, not stoked to pay for that), I was reminded of another weird issue I've been having. Sometimes, not every time, when I make a slow turn, I hear a couple of knocks coming from the...
  5. Forester Shopping
    So, yes I am a first-time Subie buyer and am looking at Foresters for legroom and the larger cargo capacity, plus it's got to be good in snow and ice! Did I mention low maintenance? Also had in mind a Highlander ( older for that budget) The RAV and the CRV don't do so good in snow tests what I...

    Need exterior width measurement, including mirrors, for 2015 Forester 2.5i Limited, and it has "Ext. Mirror w Approach Lt/Compass" as optional equipment.
  7. General Troubleshooting and Technical Help
    Hello all, My 2015 (130,000 miles) has started making a rubbing and spring being stretched thin noise when I push in the clutch. Yesterday, a smell and grind happened. It's going to a local mechanic on Monday. I've been googling what the best replacement would be but not coming up much. I've...
  8. Lighting and Electrical
    So my forester for the past couple weeks has been misfiring at idle with no CE light. At first, I thought it was because I skipped a carbon cleaning (I do a crc turbo treatment every other oil change) as it has the same symptoms of excess carbon. But it recently has gotten so bad where it...
  9. General Troubleshooting and Technical Help
    Got under the car to check my sway bar bushings since my brother mentioned I might wanna see to them. Yeah, I could use new bushings. And I found rust. And I found a leak. [long list of very nasty swear words] New gasket time?
  10. Australia / New Zealand
    Hi there, I'm new here and looking for some advice. I'm currently eyeing up a 2015 Manual Forester 2.0D-L S4 and I've heard that people have had DPF troubles with short range driving in the diesel. I live in a coastal town north of Sydney so I'm not doing small distance, city driving but I'm...
  11. Steering, Suspension and Handling
    I asked my local dealer about the front sway/tow bar and he said they stopped making them in 2013. Anyone have a part number or know of a good quality one that will fit the suby?
  12. General Troubleshooting and Technical Help
    Like the post thread, I've got a 2015 Forester 2.0 XT Premium, my heat dropped out and is only blowing cold air. I've finally found some diagnostic manuals (thank you cardiagn.com), however, I wanted to get some advice from this forum. I should note, I'm not a gearhead by nature, but I'm handy...
  13. Interior and Electronics
    I have a 2015 Subaru Forester. I've lost a few small items that have slipped out of my left pants pocket while sitting in the driver's seat, but they are nowhere to be found. I've removed the floor mats and looked under the seat with a flashlight, but no luck. The main items I'm looking for...
