Warnings

Asked by ForesterMom2015 Jan 30, 2019 at 05:01 PM about the 2015 Subaru Forester 2.5i

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Warning that it’s time for oil change,
check tires, etc., has been displaying
for a few weeks.  My reminder sticker
says next service due in February,
2019, or 36090 miles.  In the last few
days, the warning also says
inspection immediately.  My mileage
is only about 34600.  Why is this
coming on?

I would go ahead and change the oil if it has been more than 3,000 miles since you last changed it. The computer has calculated that you need an oil change, perhaps because of short trips or cold weather. It is best to change the oil every 5,000 miles regardless of factory recommendations.
