Subaru Forester Proves The SAWD Works On A Wet Genting Drive| YS Khong Driving

The gods myst have been really kind on that day to give us a spot of rain to make the drive more interesting.
Whilst everybody else is struggling to find grip, the Subaru Forester with its Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (SAWD) just kept on going at a steady pace - confirming for sure that it works very well.

That yellow Porsche kept wondering who was driving that Forester...haha

[@YSKhongDriving]

Actually he is my friend, and we are driving together. And the road was very slippery, so grip was an issue, even with the Porsche - we had awd, so had advantage especially through the corners and coming out of the corners.

[@syedputra5955]

Porsche with wide wheels susceptible to aqua planing. I drove a vehicle on 275 wide wheel and when it rains, car slides all over despite new tyres. Changed to 255 solved that problem.

[@jhf4930]

Both cars using Boxer Engine❤

[@danjudah5109]

Hi

[@kitzai6843]

Hopefully, there's a Subaru Forester XT genting ride soon...

BABE WAKE UP!, YSKHONG HAVE JUST RELEASED A NEW VIDEO!

[@orekampung]

Watching your video at home after back from work make my mind peaceful. The roaming sound of the engine is another thing. Its refreshing and full of energy. It brings back my good mood for work tomorrow. Thank you Uncle. Wish to join you in the future to experience that adrenaline in real life .

[@YSKhongDriving]

Sure, contact me. Thanks for supporting

[@A2KLAU]

The 911 wasn’t driving near its potential, when it’s wet the normal lane traffic is full of used tyre partials and becomes slippery. By trying not to follow the lanes but instead tighten entry and open up at the exit the driver could come on power earlier and would have easily kept up with Uncle. Glad to see the Porsche driver still drive within their limits unlike the BMW at the start. Driving style definitely changes when it is wet, and drivers who have a habit of snatching the wheel this really shows and is more detrimental when wet. Stay safe everyone and drive within your means 🙏

[@harvard_lee]

Smooth drive up despite the road condition 🎉

[@moinhaider1496]

The CVT whine almost sounds like a supercharger LOL!

[@kcyip1]

After overtake the yellow Porsche, I hardly see what's at front (I mean the road) YS drove this Forester like nobody buz or like driving back his home. 2 thumbs up.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, on camera it looks worse.

[@RajaSekar-USA]

Us model forester is powerful and its 2.5 Liter. Still 2014 forester 2.5 L Us model is sporty.

[@ezekielk.3629]

Everyone talking about the Yellow Porsche - walau give chance leh that car is MR and this Forester is SAWD hahahahaha

[@YSKhongDriving]

Anyway, the Porsche belongs to my friend - that was one of his early drives in that car. Now I cannot catch him at all because he got used to the car.

[@ajithkurian1]

The Porsche guy gave up driving after being overtaken by Forester 🤣

[@ejam2326]

STI version confirm no more understeer uncle. Hope Malaysia have one.

[@syedputra5955]

Lane keep assust is available on Forester but not on the XV. Since both are 2 litres, XV is cheaper and looks more youthful.plus new model Forester already sold in certain markets.

[@boboiboy9350]

forester is more upmarket and luxurious version of XV and the chasis is more dynamic and stiffer

[@talpolano4549]

Hi sir yskhong this or the CX5 turbo AWD??

[@YSKhongDriving]

CX5 turbo has much more power, so if you like power, go for it.

[@talpolano4549]

@@YSKhongDriving tnx sir! :)

[@zakiasakura6481]

forester using the same tyres as XV? yokohama bluearth? Nice drive Uncle!

[@zonghaolai6148]

the performance of E70(xv ori tyres) is not good at all. haha

[@zakiasakura6481]

@@zonghaolai6148 that's why i asked 😁 but the tyres last really long!

My 2023 Forester is using Bridgestone Dueller H/T

Subaru handling is super + economical on fuel consumption

[@johnonnmia4216]

Why this guy beside face no reaction geh🤣🤣🤣is he very kanciong???

[@Baked13]

.... sometimes it's more the driver than the vehicle 😊

[@YSKhongDriving]

The car also counts. Good car poor driver also can be a problem. Good driver poor car cannot beat good driver good car

[@RoelMC]

it would be great if there was a drone view or a chase car view that would show the car sliding etc. 😂

[@YSKhongDriving]

No budget for expensive shots, so sorry.

[@jeremiahfrancisberou3567]

Wow Subaru Forester 🤩. Can you also try Honda BRV 2024 ? 😍

[@YSKhongDriving]

I think BRV stopped production

[@jeremiahfrancisberou3567]

@@YSKhongDriving in Philippines we still have Honda BRV 2024

[@jacksonpang3130]

Uncle Khong, did you have the engine oil temperature reading set on the center console there, what's the max reading you got? 😮 as an old SJ forester owner, I drove normal also went upto 110deg C, yours i think easily +-130deg C already 😂

[@YSKhongDriving]

130

[@mie-fx1tm]

Sir, Does Subaru's torque vectoring system still work when driving in manual mode? or only in auto mode...tq

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes it does. Very good festure

[@MunwaiCheaw]

I think the cvt whine should be less apparent in actual driving

[@vims82]

Louder I believe..

[@yhcyber]

As a Forester Owner, CTV whinning loud above 3k rpm, actual city and highway drive which around 2k rpm is quite pleasant to drive

[@boboiboy9350]

@@vims82That means you hv never hv experience owning or driving this car

[@kueiseong]

Slippery, no worry it has asymmetric all wheel drive

[@mohammadtaufek5529]

Any issue on Boxer engine reliability ??

[@YSKhongDriving]

None so far. Subaru has been building boxer engines for decades

[@vims82]

The CVT is making the car scream... Hence I hate CVT....

[@ricg2005]

you will like CVT if you read the advantages of it.

[@thebestbees]

@@ricg2005yea reliable and low maintenance but of course there’s pros and cons to everything

[@boboiboy9350]

well, its actually the sound engine that most are hearing. It just rev a bit high thats part of cvt character on rpm

[@scott8919]

The CVT is whining like it's a Nissan.

[@jhf4930]

Not all CVT are make equal and the chain use also different. Guess who make the first CVT and has a lot of experience on CVT?

[@boboiboy9350]

may be because it is YS khong thats driving the machine. It never meant to drive like that, and it should be sounding more muted

[@ngchoining7980]

这辆车很好开，最大的问题是零件很贵可是不耐用。

[@YSKhongDriving]

Which modern vehicle parts are cheap nowadays?

[@MBaDog-hn6ot]

foggy wet road SAWD shines! but CVT 🤔

[@YSKhongDriving]

The CVT works fine, for this vehicle.

[@gunq69]

I enjoy watching your videos but you should have a format to give a content filled creation video (and professional). First a Quick Look outside the car and your impression on the design (before commencing journey) Secondly the description of the interior in particular the dashboard and the placement of the dials and buttons(some reader may be thinking of getting the car). While driving the performance of the car as you cycle through each gear, the brake and tyre performance in your opinion. When u reach the destination, stop the car, look into the camera and talk, it’s more engaging to the viewer rather than watching u talk and looking at the road. No offence ya, just sharing.

[@YSKhongDriving]

I do a separate video for the walkarounds. The Genting videos are for another segment, the drivers. Most of my reviews are in 2 parts, sometimes 3. Please enjoy and welcome to the channel. Suggestions are always welcome.

[@sleevenick]

Hopefully will have a review / genting drive for the subaru outback 😄

[@YSKhongDriving]

We dont get the outback here, so not likely to see that

[@klsooner5554]

the interior looks like my grand father's car

[@yangerek78]

Bet your grandfather car dont drive as well as this

[@YSKhongDriving]

Your grandfather has good taste.

[@boboiboy9350]

its also as reliable as your grandfather’s car as opposed to most cars nowadays except for Toyota
