Used Subaru Car Parts
Subaru cars — the Impreza, Forester and Outback above all — are less common on British roads than most makes here, and Subaru parts are asked about less often. Subarus are built around four-wheel drive and flat engines, so their parts are specific to the car. This page explains how to enquire about a used Subaru part and what to check before you buy.

Used Subaru parts — how enquiring works
The first detail we need for a Subaru part is the registration. It tells us the model, the year and the engine of your Subaru, and the engine is what decides the part on a Subaru. The same Subaru model has been sold with several engines, so the registration of your Subaru is what the match is based on.
Send the registration of your Subaru and the part you need for your Subaru, with your name and phone number, through the parts enquiry form for your Subaru — or ring 07961 404768 with the same details. The engine code or the part number for your Subaru makes the match surer: the code is stamped on the Subaru engine, the number is printed on the part, and both are recorded in the car's documents.
Part types Subaru owners enquire about
What wears first on a Subaru? Brakes, suspension, clutches and alternators — those Subaru parts do the hard work, so they are the ones asked about most on a Subaru. Electrical parts and lights follow on a Subaru, and engines and gearboxes come up too. Whatever Subaru part you need, the enquiry starts with the registration of your Subaru.

- Suspension and steering parts
- Clutches and flywheels

For your Subaru, have these ready
Ring 07961 404768, or use the parts enquiry form, to ask about a Subaru part. Have the registration of the Subaru, the part you need for your Subaru and your name and phone number ready. The engine code of the Subaru helps too, and the check is made against the registration of your car.
- Registration plate number of your Subaru
- Model — Impreza, Forester, Outback, XV or another Subaru
- Year the car was built
- Part needed, described as precisely as you can

Which Subaru cars
This page covers enquiries for Subaru cars generally, including widely-known ranges such as the Impreza, Forester and Outback, and the XV. The Forester is the most asked-about Subaru of all. It has been sold with petrol and diesel engines, like most Subaru cars.
If your Subaru is older or less common, tell us when you enquire. The Subaru registration is the detail that decides the match. A Subaru part is checked against the Subaru itself — the model name alone is never enough for a Subaru.
Frequently asked questions
What details do I need to enquire about a Subaru part?
Give us the registration of your Subaru first, then the model and the year, then the part you need for your Subaru and your name and phone number. The registration matters most for a Subaru because it pins down the engine. The engine code or part number for your Subaru helps too, if you know it.
Will a part from another Subaru fit my car?
Only when the numbers agree. A part from another Subaru will fit yours if the part number matches and the engine and year are the same. Subaru cars of one model can carry different parts, so the number on your Subaru part is the check — give the registration too when you enquire.
What is special about Subaru engines?
Subaru uses a flat engine, where the cylinders lie horizontally instead of upright. It is a distinctive design, and the parts are specific to it — an engine or gearbox from another make will not fit a Subaru. Always give the registration and the engine code when you enquire.
Are all Subarus four-wheel drive?
Most are. Four-wheel drive is a hallmark of the brand, and it means the drivetrain parts — gearbox, differentials, driveshafts — are different from a front-wheel-drive car. Say whether your Subaru is four-wheel drive when you enquire about drivetrain parts.
How do I know if the part fits my Subaru?
Use the registration and the part number together for your Subaru. The registration gives the model, the year and the engine of the Subaru, and the part number gives the exact part. With both in hand, the fit of a Subaru part can be checked before you buy it.
