Subaru is known for using the innovative boxer engine, named for the horizontal movement of the pistons - almost like a boxer throwing punches. The flat layout of this engine provides better fuel efficiency, and its low centre of gravity makes it more responsive.
In the 2020 Driver Power Survey, Subaru was voted the best manufacturer for safety features for the second year running. And it isn't just cars that Subaru manufactures - it also has an aerospace division that develops and creates parts for planes, including Boeing's 777 and 787 passenger jets.
Car suspension features four coil springs, one for each wheel. They are designed to absorb shocks from the road, such as driving over a pothole or speed bump, and they work in conjunction with shock absorbers.
Eventually, coil springs become fatigued with age, which means they have endured many compression-extension cycles, causing the metal to become brittle. When this happens, it's time for a coil spring replacement. This job typically takes one to three hours for front springs and one to one and a half for rear springs.
A coil spring usually lasts between 60,000 and 90,000 miles. Signs you may need new springs include: excessive tyre wear, visible rust or corrosion on the springs, excessive leaning or swaying, compromised handling and worn or missing jounce bumpers. A rear or front coil spring repair is always done by replacing the springs; once the metal becomes brittle, it can't be repaired.
