Severe-duty schedule
The maintenance schedule for your 2024 Subaru Crosstrek can be affected by your driving habits. If you frequently tow, drive in dusty or dirty conditions, make short trips in cold weather, or live in a very cold climate, you’re driving under “severe-duty” conditions. For these Crosstreks, the most important change is the oil and filter service interval, which should be halved to every 3,000 miles or 3 months. Other services to consider more frequently are the cabin and engine air filters, especially in dusty areas.
Known issues by mileage
- 30,000-60,000 miles: Some owners have reported premature wear on the original equipment tires. Wheel bearings can also be a weak point on Subarus, listen for a roaring or grinding noise that changes with wheel speed.
- 60,000-100,000 miles: The continuously variable transmission (CVT) can sometimes exhibit issues. While Subaru has extended warranties on CVTs in the past, it’s crucial to have the fluid inspected. Any hesitation or unusual noises from the transmission should be addressed immediately.
Estimated cost per service
- 5,000-mile service: $80 - $150
- 15,000-mile service: $150 - $250
- 30,000-mile service: $400 - $700
- 60,000-mile service: $700 - $1,200
- 100,000-mile service: $200 - $400
What you can DIY vs shop
- DIY: Oil and filter changes, tire rotations (with the right equipment), and replacing the cabin and engine air filters are all very DIY-friendly on the 2024 Crosstrek. These tasks can save you a significant amount of money and are a great way to get to know your vehicle.
- Shop: For more complex jobs like spark plug replacement, brake fluid and coolant flushes, and any transmission or differential service, it’s best to trust a certified technician. These jobs require special tools and knowledge to perform correctly and safely.
