At King's Auto Repair, we're committed to providing you with the knowledge you need to keep your Subaru running smoothly. We emphasize transparency, exceptional customer service, and trust-building through detailed information and testimonials. Let's delve into our recommended routine maintenance schedule for Subaru vehicles.
Every 6,000 Miles
It's crucial to replace your engine oil and engine oil filter every 6,000 miles to ensure smooth performance. Additionally, a tire rotation at this stage can help extend the lifespan of your tires by promoting even wear. Please note: One place we at King's Auto Repair differ from Subaru on oil changes is they claim 6,000-mile oil changes for normal maintenance. We see a lot of vehicles that develop engine issues once they are out of warranty from these extended 6,000-mile oil changes. Mostly timing chain, Variable Camshaft issues and Oil Burning issues. We only use high quality synthetic oil from Quaker State or Pennzoil to keep your engine clean and running efficiently.
Every 12,000 Miles
Upon reaching the 12,000-mile mark, continue with regular engine oil and filter replacements, as well as tire rotations. At this stage,we also recommend replacing the HVAC system A/C filter to maintain optimal air quality within your vehicle.
