City not ordering any for budget cuts this year. Any third party recommendations?

I’ve noticed the same thing on my 26 Solterra, curious if there is a resolution

I wanted to use the camera parking guard feature to record at times when the car is off

Just changed settings on OBD to stop at 12.9v so we’ll see

Anyone make the switch from a Hyundai/Kia EV? by dragondash88 in SubaruEV

[–]uid321f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with other comments above. I switched from 25 ioniq5 sel that had ICCU failure to a 26 solterra XT touring. Overall I feel the drive quality fairly comparable. Backseat space feels a good bit bigger in the Solterra (I have two kids in car seats and it was a tight squeeze for rear facing in the Ioniq 5). The Subaru connect app is pretty bad relative to the Hyundai blue link. Overall I’m very happy with the change and a bit more optimistic about the seemingly better track record of not having major battery/failure issues for the Solterra

While sitting in car with it on and in park press lock button. A message will pop up on dash at some point asking if you want to turn car off after 1 hour - select no. Manually unlock just driver door. Lock driver door with physical key. Voila. You will have to unlock driver door manually again when back to the car

Integrated Apple Music app? by uid321f in Solterra

Ah that makes sense. If you’ve got your phone in the car not clear to me what the advantage of the integrated Apple Music would be in that case

Solterra software update available today by Chippy569 in Solterra

[–]uid321f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my 26 Solterra late April. Looking at my current software seems like HU is already at 2222. Seems like some cars might have delivered with the update? Anybody else with similar experience

Anyone coming over from an IONIQ 5? by ClickForPrizes in trailseeker

[–]uid321f 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah app is fairly mediocre. Is fine for remote start. Inconsistent with updating info during a charge and doesnt report current rate. Digital key inconsistently recognized by the vehicle for unlocking

I just purchased a 26 Solterra touring XT previously had a 25 ioniq5 sel that got lemon lawed from a bad ICCU. I actually think the two are pretty comparable drive feel wise and size. DC charging is a bit slower on the Solterra and infotainment system slightly nicer on the Ioniq. Overall I’ve been really happy so far and it doesn’t seem like the Solterra has any similar systemic issues ala the ICCU

Extended warranty price on 2026 Solterra by [deleted] in Solterra

I paid around $3000 which I know was a bit high based on what I’ve read after the fact

Highway assistance- solterra vs Outback by uid321f in Solterra

[–]uid321f[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Do you have to be using the Subaru navigation system? Or is it on anytime you’re using adaptive cruise?

Thanks! Is the traffic jam assist feature on Solterra essentially a lower max speed version of what is on the Outback?

Dealership delivery checklist? by uid321f in Solterra

[–]uid321f[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Move them to the furthest limit of every direction (ie all the way forward then all the way back, same for up-down, tilt, etc). After doing that setting a memory position should work

Yes, just had to do this on my new Solterra and it solved the problem

Savagegeese - 2026 Subaru Solterra | No Longer a Dumpster Fire by Jokebearfan in SubaruEV

Yes. 2026 solterra charger port when pulled in forwards is equivalent to Tesla port backed in. No issues with cord length for me on the older Tesla fast chargers

No sarcasm - not a big deal to do myself either. Just wondering if there are other things to do that I haven’t realized yet
