Subaru Outback (BR): Drive belts
It is unnecessary to check the deflection of the drive belt periodically because
your engine is equipped with an automatic belt tension adjuster. However, replacement
of the belt should be done according to the maintenance schedule in the “Warranty
and Maintenance Booklet”. Consult your SUBARU dealer for replacement.
If the belt is loose, cracked or worn, contact your SUBARU dealer.

conventional engine oil. When using synthetic oil, you must use oil of the same

vehicle damage or malfunction caused by trailer towing. If you use your vehicle
to tow a trailer, more frequent maintenance will be required due to the additional
load. (Refer to “Maintenance schedule under severe driving conditions” in the “Warranty
