I just bought a 2008 Subaru Forester from a private party. What should I do to it?

Source: Yahoo! Answers

It has 18,000 miles. Obviously, I'm going to get an oil change right away. However, Subaru people, anything you know that I should do to keep this vehicle running for a very long time? Any specific air filter, oil, etc? Tips are much appreciated, I guess this goes with any... Read More

  • Always use Mobil 1 changed every 3000-3500 miles never use fram oil filters I use purolator oil filters http://www.pureoil.com/ Stock air box is very good so it doesn't need to be changed. I also think its always a good idea to let your car warm up before taking off. Make sure you have 4 of the same tires at the right... Read More
  • do check ups and everything on time and you should be fine. subaru's run till they die. you dont need to do much.
  • bring it for a thorough checkup. you should have done this before buying it. oil change, all fuilds checked, brakes checked, tires checked
  • Take it to good dealership,,ask people about it where you live.. there more then one in many areas.. Talk to the Tech people there... if they sound like they know what they are talking about....Have them run a check on the cars history/Updates./Warranty.Go for it ..Sounds like you have good deal!!

Other Choices:

The Honda CR-V has been completely redesigned for 2008, and it has a very spacious interior, with comfortable seating and a smooth ride. The CR-V is also more fuel-efficient, but it just isn't much fun to drive and it's not as rugged when taking on the rutted trail to a campsite. The Outlander is a different type of crossover; it also caters more to on-road performance, but it has a decidedly sporty character, with a firm ride and very crisp handling. On paper, it competes closely with the 2008 Subaru Forester, but in reality, it's quite a bit heavier and just doesn't feel as nimble. However, both of these models have the Forester beat for refinement. Another choice, for those who appreciate the Forester's boxiness and city-friendliness, is the Scion xB. The Scion has a lower price than the Forester, with a similar nimble feel on the road, and it's more fuel-efficient. However, it doesn't have the rugged ability or the all-wheel drive of the Subaru.
