Most common problems:

Oil consumption

The 2015 Subaru WRX with a high power turbocharged engine is known for higher-than-normal oil consumption. Regularly check oil levels to avoid potential engine damage.

Turbocharger failure

The turbocharger in high power engines can wear out or fail, especially if not properly maintained. Symptoms include loss of power and unusual noises.

Head gasket issues

Subaru engines, including the WRX, have a history of head gasket problems. Look out for coolant leaks and overheating.

Timing belt wear

The timing belt in an in-line 4-cylinder engine requires periodic replacement to prevent catastrophic engine damage. Follow the manufacturer’s service intervals.

Fuel injector problems

High performance engines often experience fuel injector issues, which can lead to rough idling and poor acceleration.

Carbon buildup

Direct injection engines can suffer from carbon buildup on intake valves, causing performance issues and requiring periodic cleaning.

Clutch wear

The WRX’s high power can lead to quicker clutch wear, especially if driven aggressively. Watch for slipping or difficulty shifting gears.

Boost leaks

Turbocharged engines can develop boost leaks, which can affect performance. Check for hissing sounds and loss of power under boost.
