At 70,000 miles went to dealer due to shudder in transmission. When I requested trans filter and oil changed they stated that it is "sealed for the life of the transmission". When I pressed a little harder about trans oil change they agreed to that. Had it back to them a couple of times due to shudder and long delay when shifting forward or reverse. Now at 114,000 local trans shop dx A/T temp as a total failure of trans by looking at codes.
I have never had a CVT and I know many companies are going to that for better MPG. I will never buy Subaru again. Give me a manual!
