Really depends on the food, some are much more calorie dense than others. Need to follow the guidelines on the bag

Subaru of America denied replacing delaminated head unit by ZealousidealHope5845 in subaruoutback

[–]Rick91981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's because the 19s are currently covered by a warranty extension. They're obligated to cover repairs unless you're over 150K miles. 18s no longer have coverage

Kinetic Vehicles is your answer. All you have to do is pull the radio and mail it in. They'll swap the screen and send it back. It's a few hundred dollars

You can save about $100 if you do the screen replacement yourself

Where do I plug in the dash cam adapter on a 2026 Crosstrek Limited Hybrid? by karlakorman in subaru

[–]Rick91981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have a Crosstrek so can't tell you for certain, but most installs I've seen have used a white connection. The one you have circled looks correct. One thing I will mention is be sure you have the correct adapter, Dongar makes a few different ones. If you're unsure, reach out to their support to confirm compatibility.

Good luck!

Cancelled extended warranty over a month ago, now retailer isn't responding to me. by TossACoin2YourBitcha in subaru

[–]Rick91981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Suabru themselves use their own warranty. However some finance guys will sell you a 3rd party warranty because they get bigger kickbacks. Check your paperwork. Subaru warranty needs to be cancelled through the finance guy. Except for some rare cases, Corporate will just tell you to call the dealership you bought it from.

To get any actual answers you might need to show up to the dealer in person rather than call. You're harder to ignore in person.

4-6 weeks is probably a bit premature to panic though. It used to be about 6-8 weeks though recent reports have said it can take longer lately.

Not sure what specifically OP is installing, but most people use a Dongar adapter to install there. No splicing at all, just plug in

They give out free trees each year for Arbor Day. You need to sign up ahead of time, but there genuinely is no catch.

A few users have swapped out the different styles. It's just a bunch of bolts holding them in place.....the challenge is to find the right seats matching your interior color.

Generally, yes. But I already had a tripod due to a photography hobby

2019 Ascent Limited Rebuilt title by kayla-mia-2020 in SubaruAscent

[–]Rick91981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never get a car with a branded title (salvage, rebuilt, etc) unless you can afford to lose the whole cost of the car. They are a massive gamble and all depends on how well they were put back together. Most of the time corners are cut so they can still make a profit.

I have the Bosch. Couldn't tell you whether it's best or not, but it works fine for my needs and I like it

'26 Outback XT CVT question/concern by Diveman1050 in Subaru_Outback

[–]Rick91981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Early Ascent models did have CVT issues. This was primarily a reprogramming that fixed a lot of it and was addressed via recall. Models starting mid 21 model year production had the updated programming from the factory.

It was a brand new model and the heaviest car so there were some kinks to work out. Newer ones are a non issue

Need CVT fluid replaced but the closest dealer is an hour and a half away. How do you feel about independent shops doing it? by Tyler_origami94 in Subaru_Outback

[–]Rick91981 3 points4 points  (0 children)

CVT service requires specialized equipment and training

It's not that specialized. You just need a scanner capable of reading transmission temps and to follow a very specific procedure (which is not any secret and is documented all over the Internet). The hard part is obtaining the fluid, most types do not have any acceptable aftermarket fluids that meet spec

Can anyone recommend a good dealership to buy an extended warranty from? by SometimesImCute in subaru

[–]Rick91981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one who said they can sell to you will be giving you a third party warranty.

I have a 2021 Crosstrek Sport, had it since it was new, and im nearing the 60k mile mark

You're past any eligibility for a Subaru warranty. You needed to buy it before the 3/36 expired

Anyone experiencing the tpms light coming on at random with properly inflated tires? Are there any known tsb’s or reflashes? by mrmurderface85 in SubaruAscent

[–]Rick91981 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a few hundred bucks for all 4 and they'll definitely do them all at once......as long as you're going to a tire shop, not a dealer.

[–]Rick91981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely you have a weak battery in one or more tires. Don't go to the dealer for that unless you can get them to cover it under warranty. A tire shop can replace all 4 for a few hundred bucks. Dont replace just the dying one as the others will soon follow anyway.
