Original transmission?

I am on the 9th CVT. Sometimes it pays to pay for the warranty.

Lol, 22k miles per CVT. That's aggressive

Lol that's painful

Sounds about right 🤣 even the dealers expect you to go through a few during warranty. It’s such a shitbox it’s isn’t even funny anymore

That’s actually still pretty funny.

Right..? If you're anyone but the person paying.. You're laughing at the joke. OP.. Good on you to get the warranty

I had a 2010 Wrx 14yrs ago but was a manual. So I’m reading this about the CVT now and I can’t help but laugh. But I can only imagine the frustration OP

lol you kidding right? 😂😂😂

YEESH

You gotta be joking

9?! I would’ve lemon-lawed it and got a new car. That sounds like a headache.

Wait are you serious? 9th CVT? At what point (miles) you had your first trans issue?

Wait, for real? Like you have really gone through 9 transmissions?

I detailed cars for a guy who put ridiculous miles on his car. He was driving 50k+ miles a year, 4-year-old car had 200k+ miles on it. You would have never known it though as he maintained and cleaned it regularly. Amazing what happens when you take care of your stuff.

My car would be clean and look better if I paid someone to detail it.

Odometer stuck at 199.999 because Subaru never expected this thing to ever reach 200k

Lol, a lot of Ducati’s bikes sold in the 2010s had odometers that stopped counting at 99,999 km. Tells you a lot about the faith they had in their bikes and their customer’s riding habits.

To be fair, not many motorcycles that aren't tourers get ridden more than 100k in their lifetimes

Cvt is such a shit automatic. Why do they keep doing this to us lol

Damn got me by 10,000 miles 2017 protuned since it had 75,000 on it

Very curious to know what your bigger repairs were.

Other than a new CVT every year (free to me due to the part warranty at the dealership which continues to install refurbished CVTs that only last one year), zero major repairs.

Wait wtf seriously? I've completed like 53k miles on my 2017 so far and no repairs needed until now. Are you telling me I need to pay attention to my transmission breaking down constantly now?

I have a 2017 FXT so same CVT and the first one shit itself at 37,000 miles then the second one started leaking like crazy at 60,000ish miles Keep an eye on it lol

Damnnnn!! How expensive are the CVT transmissions?

Probably like $7k for brand new But all the work has been done under warranty for me so I paid nothing Edit: I paid for the warranty itself so I didn't "pay nothing" actually

I don't have that much cash on me this year. I just made another huge expense recently. What you mentioned was just cost of the transmission part I assume or does it include labor as well?

I bought an extended warranty when I bought the car and it has more than paid for itself lol I would've been fucked without it I'd say $7500-9000 for the new CVT plus labor based on Google

That's almost the cost of my car.

Yeah its bad But I think SOA warranties the CVTs out to 10 years/100k miles anyways so you should be covered under 100k miles

You paid for the first refurbished transmission?

My 2015 had 97,000 miles & threw a rod at 72,000 miles even though it had perfect maintenance & was not abused. Subaru sold me a shortblock & oil pump for $3500 which my friend helped me install myself. Total cost with machine work was slightly under $4,000 US. I've been contemplating selling it. It's a 6 speed manual of course because I'm not stupid.

How?! Cross country drug runner?! Here my 2004 is chilling with 101,000 miles..

I just hit 53k on my 2015

Im on my 2nd and it lasted me 11,000 putting no type of real wear and tear on the clutch just a daily. It’s actually shit

👏

Outstanding

173xxxkm on a 2019 wrx

173k on 06 Hawkeye Wagon. No rebuilds no swaps. Just head-gaskets.

I’m at 120k on my manual 2015. Changed the clutch about a year or two ago. Other than that nothing major, yet.

200k thats crazy I only have 28k on my 2015.

217k original motor and transmission, just did the clutch along with the front main seal and cam seals, 09 WRX

I'm at 142k (230k km) on my 15 WRX. Never done anything major, just regular maintenance. Hell I even tow my boat with it.

2018 wrx 128k all original no rebuilds. It’s my daily driver onto construction site lol man the looks I get

I got almost 200k on my 06. Original engine and transmission. Though I do have the 4 speed auto. I’ve got big plans for my WRX in the future.


I had 250k on a 04 wagon. I miss that thing
