Just bought a 2014 Forester Limited w/Leather, Sunroof & PRG with 145k miles, 1 owner, clean title for $3,800 Had a replacement CVT replaced under warranty at 97k. Only issue was the upper oil pan coolant o-rings allowing oil into the cooling system. Removed and resealed the engine myself, now have $4,500 into the car and everything works as it should!😁

2014 was the year that caused me to cut ties with Subaru. My Forster fleet had so many issues and my Subaru dealer fought me on repairs. One vehicle would fail with a cvt issue (valve body) and then another Forester would have another issue. I couldn’t keep the fleet running without issues. As of 2023 I’m giving Subaru another shot with a Outback XT. Fingers crossed. The 2023 feels so much more solid than I remember the 2014 Forester feeling. I really hope Subaru has gotten their fit and finish together.

@@ernestocortezcorrea mine were part of a business fleet and had less than 36k miles when they began failing. I was told that the damage was result of abuse. The problem was that I only used them in the manner that’s portrayed on tv. Light off roading, fire roads, snow, shallow streams etc. I owned a river rafting and wilderness company back then.

As a macro (big picture) perspective I love this idea of getting a used car, going through it, assessing cost, and fixing it yourself.

I’m looking forward to the projects you have planned for this forester. Thank you!! And yes, to answer your question, it is worth it.

This is almost identical to my 2014 Forester. I’m kinda stoked to follow the progress. I “had” to replace my CVT as well, was not aware that something else could have been the problem (although my mechanic who I trust pretty well didn’t seem thrilled about having to do the work - found an old new one rather than a used one, so yeah… it was the most I’ve ever dropped on a vehicle repair. Naturally it failed just after the warranty ran out. Now it’s throwing catalytic converter codes, allegedly - and something is up causing the cruise control not to work (I suspect vacuum stuff?) and intermittently says the dynamics control needs to be checked. When in that condition it gets poor mileage. I would like to keep the vehicle, since the market is still pretty terrible for pricing - and having spent the $$$ on the CVT… am learning from you quite a lot but don’t have a ton of mechanic experience nor proper tools for anything but really basic stuff (I did replace the turn signal stalk myself, LOL)

And always vowed to be a van man and I would be driving one in heaven I would always say. Never say never unless its getting rid of your Baru. But now since im a grandfather I have gotten a subaru and prob will stick with them for life. I hate volvos . The 2018 was rated one of the safest on the road.(btw) I love my subaru even though everyone calls me a woman who loves women. Which doesn't bother me at all. Mainly since one of my bestie friend is one. Long live freedom of choice. Anyway I love my subaru for life. Love my grandchildren, my baru !!!oh and my wife too.

Thinking of getting on older Forester as an Overland project. It needs to be diesel as I travel a lot across Europe. I'd prefer an auto simply because of the miles I do unless it needs to be a manual for some a the light off-roading I'll do. What model would you recommend? Thanks
