Subaru AWD Service for Sierra Adventures

Few vehicles fit Northern Nevada life like a Subaru. Outbacks, Foresters, Crosstreks, Ascents, Imprezas, and WRXs handle snowy runs up to Tahoe, gravel roads, and daily commutes through Sparks and Reno. Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is the reason many owners choose Subaru, and keeping it healthy requires attention to details others might miss.

For example, Subaru AWD systems are sensitive to mismatched tire tread depths, which can strain the drivetrain over time, so our technicians check tire wear across all four wheels at every visit. We also look for:

• Head gasket and oil leaks on boxer engines, especially older EJ models
• CVT fluid condition and shudder on Lineartronic transmissions
• Wheel bearing noise and CV axle wear
• Oil consumption on certain FB-series engines
• Cooling system and timing belt service on applicable models

After you schedule online or use after-hours drop-off, our technicians complete a multi-point inspection and send photos and notes to your phone. A written estimate follows, and no work begins without your approval.
