    So I have the 2023 limited , I have not done the recent update that changes how the heated seats function works. However I noticed a major issue not sure if it’s me or anyone use ? It’s the Navigation system … I went to use it for the first time and it was way out dated for the area I was in ?? The map was correct how ever non of the exits were updated ( sometimes exits get changed from major construction projects ) the app was way off. By 60 exit numbers . Anyone else notice this ?

    Great channel. I live in Davis County and took mine to St. George back in March and the strong headwinds bobbing the hood while driving at 80 mph had me a bit worried, but other than that it hasn’t bothered me since. The wind was really bad that day so it made sense to me. I like your perspective on the RSV, it helps me feel better about the whole thing. I’m not going to worry about unless if something happens. I haven’t heard of anything serious from other people thus far.

    There are grey rubber stops under the hood towards the front. They're on the body of the car, not the hood itself, just to clarify. They twist to lengthen or shorten. I could actually feel the play in my hood until I lengthened them. I haven't noticed any hood flexing since.

    My 2022 doesn't have any of these issues other than the crappy stock stiff suspension. Guess I got a good one. I replaced the OEM coilovers with aftermarket and solved that issue. I have the base model so I don't have the big screen and have no issues with my infotainment system.

    500 miles in on my 23 WRX, I love the tighter suspension, it really hugs corners. And it's the first head unit I don't mind. Which is good because there is no way to change it! And I agree on sealant issue, not enough to cause problems.

      we took our 23 WRX that has $5k in coilovers, bushings, sways, wheels, 200tw tires, and compared to my husband's STI back to back at the track, the WRX handling was way behind. At the Willow track event was a Subaru engineer who let us know the new WRX uses the SUV global platform open front and rear diff with electronic brake vectoring, where as the STI handles better because it has actual front LSD, center DCCD diff, and rear LSD.

I ended up changing the compresser, all the o rings, and the condenser just incase any metal shavings went through the system but otherwise It's my first Subaru and It's been a fun and quick little car.

    At least that hood scoop is functional. I have noticed that my 23 ZL1 hood has a tiny bit of flex. Didn't the Camaro SS have the magride suspension? You could adjust that to touring mode for a smooth ride. How noisy is that church across the street?

    Its insanely stiff. I work at Lamborghini so I get to move around a ton of cars and other fun brands we get in on trade but they aren't nearly as stiff and rough as this car. I haven't done any mods yet as I'm worried about the whole RTV in the oil thing. Mine still has 1600 miles, so maybe I'll add exhaust and intake in a few months. But riding around in the city is tough with this. I bought it as my daily but I am resorting to using my Corolla hatchback on some days.

The new wrx is just slow or restarts itself on rare occasions but works great otherwise and I like it alot better on these new ones.

It gives you an extra sensation to apply to your speed. IE you feel like your going faster because the car looks like its going to shake itself to pieces the faster you go.

      So I got a Aeroflow Dynamics axle back muffler delete, which is pretty much the same thing as a remark. There is definitely drone. Now, if it was just me and my wife I wouldn’t even bat an eye. The problem is that I have a newborn and a 2 year old that sit in the back. I fear that it is a bit too loud for them in the back. So what I’m going to do is take out a car seat and have my wife drive while I sit in the back to see how bad it actually is. If it’s pretty bad I might have to put the stock mufflers back on sadly. I love the sound and the characteristics of it, but it might just be a bit too loud for the kiddos.
