Yes, it is definitely good to use Transmission Fluid in your Forester. I highly recommend it and use it in my 2000 with no problems.
What is the transmission fluid capacity on a 2001 subaru forester?
30,000 miles
It depends on if you have a manual or an automatic transmission. aut is 3and a half quarts of subaru automatic transmission fluid, a manual is about a gallon of 80W-90 gear lube
I need Dexron III in my Subaru Forester, but I don't need any right now, thanks. Your owner's manual will tell you what to use in yours.
I want to check the level of atf temp in my subaru forester 2010. On checking the transmission fluid level, after the car was driven about 10 km and was put in each gear and setting the select level in the "p", do i have to turn off the engine or idle the engine before i check the atf level?
Just like changing engine oil only in a different location and with different oil.
Of course not. To paraphease the old saying, the only thing you must do is pay taxes and die. --Ken
Foresters from MY06 require automatic transmission fluid type J This fluid only appears to be available from 2 companies at present. Castrol Transmax J and Havoline ATF J
Dexron III. It will take around 4 quarts if you drain using the drain plug on the transmission driver's (left) side.
This question has been asked before. The answer depends on why you are asking. Draining fluid with the drain plug, refilling will take about 4 quarts. You should do this at least yearly to get long life from your transmission. Good luck! --Ken
