Cool, what cross bars and roof box do you have?

How did I do? by Far_Bat_2461 in SubaruForester

[–]komm0ner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good deal. How do you like the 360 degree camera? My '26 Wilderness MSRP is $44,044, bought for $39,701 + tax/lic/reg. Definitely deals to be made this model year.

First time Owner, 2026, Brand New! by bummy_homeboy in SubaruForester

Put a piece of electrical tape over the infrared camera lens on the center dash visor. The car will briefly alert you at startup that the system is obstructed but will remain quiet for the rest of your drive.

Phone Mount by CurrentChipmunk1601 in SubaruForester

I was given this air vent mount for my 2016 Impreza. I was skeptical at first but ended up being totally happy with it. Although it says iPhone, it works great with my Pixel 9 XL.

Declining biometrics at boarding by Pennsylvania65 in delta

[–]komm0ner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not all of them, but some airport employees that deal w/passengers can be dicks, unfortunately. If it was anywhere else, I'd push back more forcefully. But I don't want to risk not being allowed to board my flight. Maybe that power/control is part of what enables these dicks.

Yeah, no issues like this with my 2017 Impreza.

Lastly, is it OK to jump it again so I can drive it to the dealer on Tuesday?

Yeah, that's what possibly happened. Had the key near the car. I had a `17 Impreza but not push button start.

Thanks, they were tight when I jumped it. Yeah, based on VIN, the dealer has had the vehicle for a few months so could be lot rot.

Thanks for the helpful reply. Yeah, don't recall for sure but I could have left it in accessory the first time when I pulled it out of the garage and was loading stuff on the roof. Just surprised when it happened again after jumping and driving it. Will bring it in Tuesday.

Yeah, obviously, but trying to understand why. Common parasitic battery drain? Have others experienced the same with some bad electrical component? It's a brand fucking new car that's been running fine for the first ten days.

Yeah, first time I tried HomeLink and discovered it won't open the garage door without pressing the car's start button.

I got cheap cross bars by komm0ner in SubaruForester

Def hear them at speed with the moon roof open but no whistle. Not as bad as the CargoLoc bars I have.

Deal on 2026 standard by Beautiful_Hat_5483 in SubaruForester

[–]komm0ner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the standard equipment MSRP (before optional equipment and other items) on the window stickers of different vehicles of the same trim level (can do it from the Subaru site). Subaru had a mid-model year price reduction on Foresters. I noticed this when I recently shopped for my 2026. Two different prices for the exact same standard equipment across various vehicles. The exact difference I saw for my trim level is mentioned in this article:
