The Subaru Dealership Alternative For Repair & Service in Kalamazoo, MI
We see our fair share of Subarus. A couple of common problems we see: inner CV boots tearing open. Once, the boot tears open, dirt gets in the joint and destroys it. Aftermarket CV axles tend to cause vibration issues in Subarus and original equipment axles are expensive. Replacing the boots when they show signs of cracking but before they split open can prevent costly problems.
We are familiar with timing belt replacement on these cars. We also recommend inspection of the oil pump during the timing belt repair as the oil pump case screws tend to come loose. This will cause a loss of oil pressure to the engine.
We also have experience with head gasket issues on these cars.
Some other services we offer:
- Factory scheduled maintenance
- Suspension and steering work
- Diagnostic work
- Air conditioning work
