Subaru Forester: Maintenance and service / Spark plugs
It may be difficult to replace the spark
plugs. It is recommended that you have the
spark plugs replaced by your SUBARU
dealer.
The spark plugs should be replaced
according to the maintenance schedule
in the “Warranty and Maintenance Booklet”.
CAUTION
Make sure the cables are replaced in
the correct order.
Recommended spark plugs

It is unnecessary to check the deflection of
the drive belt periodically because your

tension adjuster. However, replacement of
the belt should be done according to the

Two separate circuits
Your vehicle has two separate circuit brake
systems. Each circuit works diagonally
across the vehicle. If one circuit of the
brake system should fail, the other half of
the system still works. If one circuit fails,
the brake pedal will go down much closer
to the floor than usual and you will need to
press it down much harder...
