Its a 2014 Subaru Forester


Yeah, I am well aware there are different CVT transmissions. But the theory of operation is similar in all of them. I get not wanting a CVT. But they are becoming the norm. One thing is for sure. You better damn well not mix lubricants or coolants on late model vehicles.
