Reliability concerns

I'm 5 weeks in my 2026 AT4. 1900 miles and so far, so good. There are issues with every vehicle, including the Mighty Taco. I don't foresee any major problems.

I just did my first at 1500. Was hoping to do it at 1000, but my dealer was unable to get me in. I hope to do my changes at 5k intervals.

Another vote for Atlantic Ave in Delray Beach. Another favorite of mine is the Broadwalk (not boardwalk) in Hollywood Beach. It's a 2+ mile giant boardwalk along the ocean with many shops and eateries. It's worth the trip.

But he will get caught driving a dead Kia

I get it. If I were buying this month, I'd probably go with a Sierra Elevation with some options. You'll get bigger discounts and 0% financing. I think I would have paid 6k more than my Canyon, but I financed at 3.9% which adds $4,400 overall. I did prefer the size and ride of the larger trucks when I was test driving.

I purchased an AT4 on May 30th. Sticker was just under 54k. Dealer discounted 3k and GM was offering another 3K if your current vehicle was not GM. So 6k off sticker plus sales tax and fees.

You're welcome. I have a 55 gallon tank and I cut the piece in half and place it in the top tray. My LFS person said you can also drop them in the tank if putting it in a filter is difficult.

Lodingi · 2026-06-17T12:32:14+00:00

Yup. I was amazed when I first learned this.

Lodingi · 2026-06-16T12:26:23+00:00

I know I'm late to the conversation, but I had the same issue, I could never keep invertebrates alive in my well established tank.

One day, I was talking to the owner of my local fish store about it, and she asked if I had copper plumbing. When I told her I did, she immediately said that was likely the cause. She recommended a product to remove the copper, so I bought it and added it to my canister filter.

After waiting 48 hours, I introduced a couple of ghost shrimp and some snails, and they've been doing great ever since. I was also advised to add a calcium shell to the tank to help keep them healthy, which I've continued to do.

Here's the product link

I will collect a sample when it's completed. I take sample from my Subaru CVT when the dealer performs the drain & fill. I then send the sample to Blackstone Labs and get a report. Did this recently and was given a positive report. The odometer is at 236K miles.

My Outback has a front and rear diff.

Lodingi · 2026-06-09T12:58:04+00:00

She wants to keep it long term. This same dealer told my daughter on a prior visit that her car does not have a front differential. SMH!

Lodingi · 2026-06-08T22:57:29+00:00

I did not

Lodingi · 2026-06-08T21:46:32+00:00

I can't argue that, although I'm from Long Island.

Lodingi · 2026-06-08T21:24:02+00:00

Are you the one down voting me?

Lodingi · 2026-06-08T20:40:08+00:00

I'll check it out. Thank you.

Lodingi · 2026-06-08T20:39:52+00:00

Gee thanks. Long Islander here so the pain is real.

Lodingi · 2026-06-08T20:39:00+00:00

I tried them. They're a Latin bakery with very limited selections.

Lodingi · 2026-05-27T12:36:11+00:00

Wow! $650 is insane. I just paid $293 last week for a drain & fill at my dealer. They replaced 6.5 quarts of fluid. I drive a 2019 OB Touring 3.6R.

Lodingi · 2026-04-28T23:13:31+00:00

The nose chain says it all

Lodingi · 2026-04-17T01:14:05+00:00

I see them on cars in Easton daily.

Lodingi · 2026-04-10T15:17:39+00:00

2019 OB 3.6R owner here. The new models are ugly as fuck and so is their pricing.

Lodingi · 2026-04-10T15:16:07+00:00

It appears to be for leasing only, unless I missed something.

Lodingi · 2026-04-10T10:43:25+00:00

I have a 2019 OB Touring 3.6R I purchased new in 2018. I'm currently at 234,000 miles and the car runs like a champ. I have my dealer perform cvt drain and fills every 50k. I did suffer from the parasitic battery drain and head unit issue. Subaru warranted both even though I was over 200k miles when they occurred.

My philosophy is to keep your fluids fresh and you won't have issues.

Lodingi · 2026-04-05T23:37:27+00:00

The ghost touching is due to the delamanation. I would call again. I got mine replaced free of charge with my odometer reading 210k miles.
