2005 Subaru Forester - Is it worth it?

[@PetrolHeadBrasil]

It's a good car! Low maintenance, huge internal space and very reliable!

[@agirlwholovesgod1645]

I have 06’ forester. My first car. I hope it lasts well into 300k because it’s fun to drive & has okay gas mileage.

[@PetrolHeadBrasil]

@@agirlwholovesgod1645 it will!!

[@sergioherrera3029]

Nope , they overheat, consumes oil 🛢️ head gasket goes bad

[@doublea6364]

Haha not my dads, his 05 Subaru with only 90,000 miles was babied all its life, barely driven in winter, the thing was a complete piece of junk, head gaskets went bad like once a week and it rotted out so bad the front right wheel fell off

@@sergioherrera3029 no not rly, these 2.0l are bulletproof

Mine has 167000+ miles, doesn't burn oil, doesn't burn a drop of coolant, original tranny, drives like new. I guess it's all about the owner and who's owned it...

[@toot1231]

Driving mine until I cant afford to maintain it anymore. 240k miles still going. Not a check engine light but yes does have an oil leak prob gasket and im not messing with it also coolant mia so yeah typical problems. paid 2k for it, had around 170k miles when I got it and from what I remember of course didnt have these issues lol

Nice video, thanks for sharing about the forester, it’s a reliable and cheaper car!

How can we change language please help us.

[@sergioherrera3029]

They burn oil 🛢️, head gasket goes bad , if you don't maintain tires they affect the transmission

[@carmaniaoficial8584]

That’s true. These engines need a straight maintenance. Otherwise you may (and probably will) have serious issues wi the that…

[@Marco-qe5zw]

Haha yeah like every AWD car. So what's your point?

[@sergioherrera3029]

@@Marco-qe5zw . ) My point ☝🏼

[@JimBrideau]

@@Marco-qe5zw They are the best AWD car out there...I still like this generation Forester over any other...getting hard to find in Canada with out the dreaded rust problems tho

[@jasonhurley1293]

Worse car I ever owned

[@carmaniaoficial8584]

😅🤣😂 fair enough

[@Wavecoastkennels]

Why?

[@JimBrideau]

depends on how previous owner maintained it....just like any other car...if maintained these are 1 of the best older cars on the road...I have and have owned a couple and I say they are the best...I haul a trailer with 2000 pounds in it all the time and handles it very well even when braking....I live in Canada and they are a little tank in the biggest snow storms...
