Thanks JG2000,

 

looking around for audio shop that carry kicker speaker now.

 

Not much confidence of diy this task 

 

I doubt if local audio shop have as it is very specific to Subaru XV/Impreza/Forester and we are not that many in Spore for audio shops to carry it.

Normally, people order from overseas (either directly or via Vpost or such service) - e.g. (did not buy yet so don't know if below link is a good source or not - just an example)

https://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Tweeter-Kit-by-Kicker-Subaru-Forester-XV-Crosstrek-Impreza-H631SFJ101-/112408475945

If you manage to find in Spore, pl. share where so others can get it also.

 

DIY is straightforward (so people say).  It comes with clear instructions.

There is also some videos (perhaps not directly for XV but close enough - e.g. WRX)

I am driving a 2013 XV.

time to change the speakers of the 4 doors.

Any recommendation you guys have - just a normal set of speakers will do.

 

Do you guys know the speaker size or even DIY - appreciate your info.

 

Thank you very much.

U may wish to try a variety of them at new century at L2 sim lim tower. Go for higher sensitivity ones at 90dbm minimum. Recommended to soundproof the doors 2 layers for improved bass response n spkr ring to seal gap between door panel n spkr rim.

 

Hope u find one w a reasonable sound quality

 

Btw I'm using eol diamond m651 component spkrs. They're 5.25" so need customized spkr ring / bracket wc above shop has. Most spkr nowadays r 6.5" wc should fit most car front doors.

Thanks to All bros,

 

I will start my hunting now.

 

Option 1 : purchase and install from same audio shop

 

Option 2 : Purchase on-line and try DIY - Fail then look for installer loh.

Yes. Only 2.0L.

Anyone know why do not have 1.6L version?

New XV2.0 has Eyesight (finally), new SGP, new DIT engine, SE will add more fantasy to the story, all else failed, SE will be happy to sell you a forester NA

hi guys, collected my 2018 XV 1.6 recently and i'm experiencing something strange with my car.

basically, when I am moving off slowly, stepping on the accelerator pedal slightly, sometimes I can feel that the car jerks a few times, like knocking back and forth.

usually happens when the RPM is still between 1k - 2k.

but if i accelerate more or driving at a higher speed, then everything's fine.

 

would like to check with you whether if anyone of you have experience this before.

thanks in advance!

It is true love.

They really like their XV.

 

not everybody need a big car like Forester, older technology (frame, audio, manual handbrake, less efficient engine)...

some like parking a smaller car like XV 4.45m compared to Forester 4.6m
