2006 Subaru Forester X review from Australia and New Zealand
"Nice car, but annoyed by the dealer!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear suspension has sagged 15-20mm.
Front left shocker noise.
Excessive oil consumption.
Drivers seat becoming uncomfortable.
General comments?
Normally only has a driver in the car; occasionally a family of 5.
Keep getting flashed by other oncoming traffic for high beam headlights, as the rear of the car sits down all of the time.
Had to put in 1.5 litres of oil in last 11000 kms!
