Your Subaru’s engine produces a lot of heat during normal operation. Coolant (also called antifreeze) circulates through the system to absorb this heat and transfer it away from the engine. Without the correct coolant type and dilution ratio, your engine could overheat, freeze, or experience long-term internal damage. That’s why it’s essential to maintain your cooling system according to Subaru’s recommended intervals — and only with Genuine Subaru coolant.
Coolant flush intervals vary based on your Subaru model and the type of coolant used:
Our team always references your owner’s manual and Subaru’s latest maintenance guidelines to recommend the ideal service schedule for your vehicle.

Q: Can I top off my coolant at home?
A: You can, but only if you’re using the correct Subaru-approved coolant. Mixing incompatible coolants can damage your system. Always refer to your owner’s manual or ask our team for guidance.
Q: What type of coolant does Subaru use?
A: Most newer Subaru models use a long-life Super Coolant (SOA868V9270), which is blue in color and OAT-based. However, color isn’t a reliable indicator — always verify the part number or consult your manual.
Q: Can I drive if my coolant is low?
A: We don’t recommend it. Running your Subaru with low coolant can lead to overheating, head gasket failure, or worse. Stop driving and have your vehicle inspected immediately.
Q: Do you offer coolant-related service specials?
A: Yes! Flatirons Subaru regularly offers rotating service specials, including coolant flush discounts.
