Subaru Manual Transmission Fluid Exchange Service Details From Shingle Springs Subaru

If you drive a Subaru with a manual transmission, you might think that you'll never have to have a transmission fluid exchange but that's not the case. The gearbox is a complicated mechanism and it requires the proper lubrication to prevent wear and damage. Protecting these components is Subaru gear oil which, like any fluid or oil in your vehicle, will break down over time and need to be changed for optimum performance.

Why Should I Have The Manual Transmission Gear Oil in My Subaru Changed?

It's a simple fact that there is a lot of metal-to-metal contact inside a manual gearbox and if those components aren't properly protected, serious damage could occur. Over time, the gear oil inside your Subaru gearbox will break down and won't be able to protect these crucial moving parts as well as it did when it was fresh.

How Often Should the Manual Transmission Fluid be Changed?

Your individual driving style and frequency will play into how often you'll need this service, but the recommended interval is usually between 30,000 and 60,000 miles. If you're concerned that your Subaru hasn't been shifting smoothly or if you've noticed a grinding noise when you shift gears, it's a good idea to have your Subaru inspected by one of our factory trained technicians as soon as possible. If an inspection reveals that it's time to have the gear oil in your Subaru replaced, it pays to have it done immediately to prevent further damage.
