Towing a light trailer (Impreza & Legacy)

Featured Replies

Just wondering what folks have towed with their Subarus. My brother ('02 Impreza TS) and I ('99 OBW) are interested in towing with our cars. We both have automatics. What experiences have people had?

 

I'm not sure what my brother wants to tow, or how far, but as for me, I'd like to be able to tow a lightweight single motorcycle trailer with a 500lb motorcycle on it (total weight would probably be less than 1000 lbs.) Would this be too much of a strain on a '99 OBW if it was done over long distance (> 1000 miles)?

It should be fine, but I would first make sure you have fresh tranny fluid and filter and an auxilary tranny cooler. A search should yield good information.
