Mine is Avocarado. I wanted to incorporate guacamole into the name but had trouble coming up with something with guac- in it. I like how Avocarado rolls off the tongue but if anyone has any nice sounding suggestions using guac- bring them on!
Not really sure I'll end up using the name...
I always do the triple click so it honks when I lock the car. I recently moved to a new apartment and a lot of people have Subarus. When I’m just chilling at home I always hear people doing the honk too. I feel like it’s a Subaru thing. Do other car brands do this too and I’m just ignorant? I know the sound of a Subaru one when I hear it. Let me know your thoughts.
I have an OG 2013 XV Subaru Crosstrek I’ve had for nearly 10 years. She’s my baby and I love her. I actually just had to get my horn fixed because it stopped working. Maybe it’s all that honking
EDIT - didn’t expect such strong opinions on this post - if it’s early in the morning or super late at night (quiet hours) I won’t do it. I just heard another one typing this edit
TIL I can get a 9 foot roll of paper into my Crosstrek. Probably could haul a 10 foot roll but it would have been right up against the front windshield. No passengers allowed on this trip.
My 2026 Crosstrek Hybrid Limited near Pike’s Peak, Colorado. The aspens were breathtaking! She sure is great on those winding mountain roads! 🔥❤️
I bought a brand new 2018 Subaru when they came out.
I had a check engine light come on after around 15k miles driven. It turned on maybe 4 times while it was still under warranty. I brought it the Subaru dealership everytime to get it checked out, and every single time they would give me a shite reason : "You probably didn't close your gas cap well [I always do]" or "we did a system update and erased the code" or "we didn't see anything odd [although they never opened the engine] so we erased the code, come back if it turns on again" and "we did an oil change and will hope it clears it".
Now come around 60k miles, out of warranty, and I need a new engine. I had a low engine pressure light come on so I towed my car to the mechanic. It was not a faulty sensor so I gave him the go-ahead to open my engine and see what's going on. He called me quickly after because my engine was obviously fucked : the crankshaft was falling apart. This come from years of neglecting the check engine light, seeing as the dealership would just clear it every time.
I was naive when I first bought my car but you best be sure I will fight for my next car if problems arise under warranty. I feel like I've been cheated by Subaru of Canada and I'm genuinely so upset at myself.
Edit : I can post my oil change intervals once I'm home (Oct 5-6) as I've got nothing to hide. I might contact SOC and see what happens. When I brought my car to the dealership for the CEL once it wasn't under warranty, only then did they tell me they had to open the engine to diagnose the issue and it would cost "$$$$" (as written on their invoice). Anyways, take care guys. I love this car with my whole heart and it will be getting a new engine put in soon. :)
Hi everyone! I have a 2026 Subaru Crosstrek Base (the one with the dual-screen setup), and I’m looking to upgrade the speakers to improve the sound quality, especially the bass.
For now, I only want to replace the speakers. I don’t want to install a subwoofer or amplifier yet because the car is still under warranty.
What speakers would you recommend that work well with the factory head unit and provide good bass without an amp?
Thanks!
Took my first big trip with my Crosstrek Limited Hybrid. 42 mpg! Very happy with that. đź‘Ťđź‘Ť
