When did the gas cap come back on on my Subaru Outback?
First time it happened, about a year ago, found out the gas station didn’t put the gas cap back on. It then happened again 2 months ago. Took it to my mechanic. He unhooked the battery terminals for about 5 minutes, then hooked them together for about a minute. It has happened again twice in the last 3 weeks.
How much does it cost to fix a Subaru Outback?
They say it is the Valve Body (it’s a module in the Transmission). Cost to fix is around $1400-$1600 if not covered under warranty. If you own a 2012-15 Impreza, 2013-15 CrossTrek, 2014-15 Forester or 2015 WRX, your CVT warranty is automatically extended by Subaru of America to 100k miles or 10years, whichever occurs first.
It also did not lurch when first engaging the accelerator in drive like our 2015 Outback Premium 2.5i does. We dropped transmission and dealer said caused by rear differential, that was proved wrong.

What kind of transmission does a 2016 Subaru Outback have?
CVT Transmission started making raspy whirring sound. After the transmission was replaced, the car would shudder noticeably when making tight turns.

Are there any issues with early H6 Outbacks?
All of the 5EAT’s have the filter in the fender as far as I know. The 5EAT’s came on the GT’s, XT’s and H6 cars. 4EAT’s have the filter on the side of the trans. The valve covers and timing chain covers will leak. If the oil wasn’t changed regularly, expect timing chain problems. The early 3.0s guzzle fuel.
