A 1999 Subaru Forester typically requires approximately 4.2 quarts (or about 4 liters) of gear lube for the manual transmission. It's important to check the owner's manual or consult a mechanic for specific recommendations based on the vehicle's condition and any modifications. Using the correct type of gear lube, such as 75W-90, ensures optimal performance and longevity of the transmission.
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
Yes, it will fit and mount up just fine. But you will have to make sure the front differential gear ratio matches that of your rear differential. Or what you could do is swap the transmission from the Forester along with the rear differential from the Forester
it holds the gear that the car is in
That means that the car is in low gear.
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?
Manual transmissions do not typically have dipsticks --I believe that thy run on gear lubricant that doesnot wear out often or escape the trans.
For a 1999 Subaru Outback, the recommended transmission fluid is Subaru's own High Torque CVT Fluid or an equivalent fluid that meets the specifications for Subaru automatic transmissions. If the vehicle has a manual transmission, it typically requires 75W-90 gear oil. Always consult the owner's manual or a trusted mechanic for specific fluid recommendations based on your vehicle's transmission type and condition.
The heated front seats are an optional extra on the 1999 Subaru Forester. If you have them, the switches should be on the center console (between the driver seat and the passenger seat) just behind the gear shift lever. There should be two switches - one for the driver's seat and one for the passenger's seat. The switches each have 3 settings - off, lo, and hi.
It's a shame to drive a subaru with an automatic transmission
They are different gear ratios. Outback turns 3100 @ 65 while the Forester turns about 2700. I'm currently running this combo and have about 4-5k on it expecting viscous coupling to go when I need it the least, then I go nowhere and I'm on as unmaintained road in the Colorado Rocky's so I'm looking for the correct answer as well.
In a 2000 Subaru Forester, the button to turn off the overdrive is typically located on the gear shift lever. It may be labeled as "O/D Off" or similar. Pressing this button will disable overdrive, allowing the vehicle to operate in a lower gear for increased power when needed.
