Forester Gump

That is the case with most modern diesels though. The crankshaft issue was a major concern for me after reading the horror stories. Thanks for your help.

But are there less cases on 2011 cars as searching on reg shows it as a euro 4 engine so was not sure how to know if the crankshaft issue was partially resolved when this was built. I do decent miles and have diesels for nearly 15 years now without any DPF issues. So I am aware they need to be driven let regeneratio complete etc.(never had a dpf light). Just fancy a decent 4x4 and the Forester has caught my eye.

Hi, Thinking of buying a 2011 forester with 23k on the clock. Seen the horror stories of the crankshaft snapping. Was this sorted be 2011 (March reg) or were they still doddgy! Thanks for any input.
