Hi XV owners, how would you rate the performance and maintenance requirements (and costs) of the XV?

haven't had maintenance yet since i barely got 300km odo so far its exceeding my expectation for a car-like ride that's durable as an suv. Accelerators kinda preppy or should i say need a light touch it will sprint if your foot is heavy... but im getting used to it.. love the cornering and ride you can feel it hugging the road.. =)
For the XV maintenance. i think we paid around P6~7k for the 10k maintenance.
What I like with Subaru dealership is that the interval of the maintenance is every 8months or every 10k km. unlike in Hyundai (5k km or 3 months + strict compliance).
Issue encountered so far: busted brake light (paid P250 +/-). Safety feature nya is magyeyellow lahat nung warning light paginiistart and ilolock nya yung kambyo (from P).
Una akala ko mali lang setting sa maintenance date/km. pero hindi naman.
2nd encounter- nagyellow pa rin and from P mejo ayaw na magkambyo papunta sa drive. pero i was still able to get home.
3rd encounter - nagyellow pa rin and from time to time, lumalabas yung warning while driving - this was the time na idecided to have it checked.
4th encounter - next day, yellow pa rin and mejo natagalan na ko ikambyo from P pa punta sa drive. --> going to Casa
5th encounter - *Casa - park ako and ask the service advisor, check-check and i was advised na pwede ko ischedule sa weekend instead baka sa setting lang or something. Pero hindi na nagkambyo nung paalis ako. kaya naiwan na rin doon that day.
May tinuro sila na maliit na bilog sa may kambyo - parang override. need lang ng maliit na pang sungkit to remove the cover.
I shared this kasi swerte na nasa casa na ako nung ayaw na magkambyo.. mahirap yun kung nasa mall or paalis na ng office nangyari (for me or wifey).
Nearing 20k maintenance or sa April 2014. Hopefully kayanin ng budget.. hehehe..
Other than that, wala na naman issue. Very satisfied XV owner.![]()
*ryamvill, the maintenance cost isn't so big naman pala considering the 10,000 km interval between checkups. Just wondering if all those instances na umilaw ng yellow yung warning lights are all due to a busted brake light?

Yup! That's what they said and yun ilaw lang naman binayaran ko. Wala rin naman ibang ginawa or nakaindicate sa receipt nung binalikan ko aside sa car wash.

It's a good thing that Subaru has this feature to warn of a busted lamp. Was recently flagged down sa SLEX, my violation being "defective tail light" which is just a busted lamp which I didn't notice since hindi madalas nakikita. Buti nalang the officer just gave me a warning.

just paid 20k for the reservation of my new XV. ;)
hindi ko lang alam kung anong kulay pipiliin ko. 2 nlang pinagpipilian ko na kulay, Dark Gray Metallic or Quartz Blue Pearl
ano kaya mas maganda?
Dark grey metallic.. White sana kung meron. I believe Subaru doesn't charge extra for their pearl white variant

How much po ang XV base? Subaru Alabang has offered good discounts daw, though not sure how much for the XV base.
