2009 Subaru Forester - Dies while driving/ Won't start

20

Asked by Jarrett Jul 05, 2018 at 11:02 PM about the 2009 Subaru Forester 2.5 XT

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2009 Subaru Forester XT (210,000km) has been reluctant to start
occasionally and a couple times died on me while driving at slow speeds. This
has been happening for a couple of months and is very inconsistent as it will
run/start without problem for weeks then randomly start acting up again. I've
been told that it is something to do with the feul system. Just want to ask you
guys before I dump a bunch of money on a new feul pump.

Update: The CEL and traction control light are on solid with the cruise control light flashing.
