Buying Tips for the Subaru Outback Mk6 (BT)

  • Run through the touchscreen climate and media menus slowly; laggy or glitchy screens are more than just an irritation on this cabin design.
  • Check for smooth Eyesight operation and ask whether any replacement windscreen has been calibrated correctly.
  • Make sure the heater works properly from cold, as cooling-system faults can look like a random electronics problem at first.
