    What size clear tube for flushing brake fluid on a 2015 Subaru Crosstrek?

    Will be doing a brake fluid flush on my Crosstrek in a month or so and I'm starting to research what I need. This will be a two-person flush, with one braking and the other managing the bleeder screw. What size clear tubing will I need to fit over the bleeder screw? Thanks.

    Changing spark plugs on a 2015 Subaru Crosstrek

    Greetings, Seems like it's a ridiculously tight fit between the fender chassis and plug location, especially the rear driver's side. I'll be replacing the plugs with OEM NGK. I have a combination of different sockets and extensions, but I doubt I can get my torque wrench in there. Am I good...

    4th Gen Subaru Outback Brake Pads

    Can I use this grease for brake maintenance?

    Is sil-glyde good for all areas of the brakes where grease is normally applied? Or is it best to just use it for the caliper pins since they're inserted in rubber boots? Thanks.

    Can I use this grease for brake maintenance?

    Thanks everyone! Napa carries the Sil-Glyde but it's branded with their name. Is this the same thing? Napa Item Number: 765-1351

    Can I use this grease for brake maintenance?

    MAG1 Hi-Temp Disc Brake Wheel Bearing Grease. It's at lease 20 years old but it seems fine to me. I'm replacing the two front brakes on my Subaru Crosstrek next weekend and was wondering if I could use it for the pad clips, slide pins and back of pad shims. Thanks!

    Tire purchase at Walmart - great price, poor service

    I had tires installed at my local Walmart several weeks ago and when I approached my car I noticed the wheels were full of some kind of grease. The tech saw me wiping the grease off and ran toward me and apologized for not removing it when done. Apparently they add a coat of grease around the...

    Hello all, Rural King is running a special on their Harvest King Full Synthetic 0w-20 for 9.99 for 5 quartz. Should I stay away from this oil? I used to use their Rural King brand on my Subaru Crosstrek, but they no longer carry it. Thanks in advance.
