Want this question answered?
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
What is the transmission fluid capacity on a 2001 subaru forester?
Just like changing engine oil only in a different location and with different oil.
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
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.
The recommended automatic transmission fluid for a 2000 Subaru Outback Legacy is Subaru ATF HP. This is a proprietary fluid which is sold by local dealerships.
30,000 miles
The recommended ATF for a 2002 Forester is Dexron 3.
no
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
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.
