      We test drove a lifted forester. My wife liked it better than the stock ride. Was looking at options for lifting it, and tires

      Yes, changing tire overall diameter whether going bigger or smaller will change the speedometer reading.

    I have had a Subaru forester 1997 (automatic) from new, that has been great for all the years with very little to do other than annual services. However, recently I have had a lot of vibration & shuddering on the wheels when making tight turns (left or right). It is difficult to identify which wheels the noise or shudder comes from and I don't feel much through the steering wheel. I have had all difs replace that has reduced the frequency but not always. We hope it isn't the automatic gear box but has anyone got any ideas what to do next.

      Yes, these are M+S and have the three-peak mountain snow flake rating.

  • @zylkaj82
    @zylkaj82 Před 5 lety +4

    Honestly.. this isnt even a challenge for the forester. Especially with good tires. Maybe... if there was 4-6” of snow on that hill would it have given it a run for its money. Any I still would bet that it could eventually make it up.

    • @HighjakSecondary
      @HighjakSecondary  Před 5 lety +1

      The Subaru makes it look easy from the exterior you're right, but VDC is definitely working to limit spin on the wheels that are slipping. I'll attempt this again in more snow if possible. I think it'd be fun to see this next to an older 4x4 with open diffs and some of the newer 4x4 systems like the Toyotas with A-TRAC.

    The Forester was never NOT going to make that climb. If you turn off VDC, you’ll be amazed just where it’ll go. My Outback has smashed much deeper snow/ climbs than this on bald summer tyres.
