@satansgavin Of course he should use the steering wheel, but he doesn't seem to get it!!! If you steer a little bit, then you could have a little bit of traction havind energy and sending the Forester in another direction. ...... Dah!

how can you expect some 4 cylinder awd with road tyres to move in mud buddy. Forresters are pirces fo shit best left for the soccer mums and balless men.
I would have agreed initially but the styling of the Xtrail does grow on you. The Forester is a bit more "feminine" and even the Subaru sales people are all women (at least near here), whereas the Xtrail has male sales people (not very good ones either).
For around town the T may be better, but the XTrail is definitely better for off-road.
the older foresters are better for offroading. i had an impreza 1.8 gl with tiny little road tires and i went across a field that was just like a swamp and i boged right dwn, so my dads mate came in his Mitsubishi warrior and got stuck at the fkin gate lmao
I just had a look at the specs on the current turbo Forrester and it doesn't mention a diff lock.
It's not just the Xtrail's diff lock that makes a big difference. If any wheel starts to spin the active braking slows it and sends power to the opposite wheel.
Even without special tires, the Xtrail is quite amazing.
A very useful video. It helped me decide not to buy a Forester and to get a Nissan X-Trail instead. I've had it out in the bush through mud, deep water holes and very rough tracks. The diff lock together with the active 4 wheel limited slip braking is fantastic. It makes the roughest conditions feel like bitumen. The only reason I'd go to a bigger 4WD is ground clearance.
like an x trail wud ge tthrough that, this has standard road tires on it. with so good ofroad wheels and tires it wud of gone thorugh no prob, subaru have one of the best 4x4 systems in the world
I used to be a scooby fan too ... until I bought my X-Trail ... there is no comparison of their 4WD abilities ... the X-Trail is far superior with its diff lock and active anti slip braking (ie while driving). I've been through mud just like that in my XTrail ... no problems !
well the turbo versions have lockin diffs if u get a good one, but trust me with the right tires it will go anywhere. even my old impreza was good offroad
LOL...My Forester been in situations like that I am yet to be stuck. In fact I have driven up slippery slopes with less power than my friend 4X4 off roader. My Forester has LSD tho. Whenever I lose traction I just press the snowflake button for slippery sufaces and continue on my way.
damn biglandfarm thats really mature saying that i suck for telling the truth about a car that sucks that just makes me laugh oh well thats just youre opinion ;)

Damian4x4 youre mistaken in saying that the 4x4 isnt standard on that car cause all subarus have 4 wheel drive standard and that car has enough ground clearance for where its stuck the only reason its stuck its because the 4wd system sucks because subarus suck thats why its stuck not because of the ground clearance
Why you put a car with no off-road capabilities into mud? Forrester got no tires (no standard 4x4 got it), no ground clearence, no wheel travel, and it's engine and electronic systems are extremely vulnerable to water.
If you want traction off-road, most cars and SUV's don't have "real" off-road tires. You will need to buy some.
Also, there was a lot of wheelspin on the wheels not touching the ground, if it doesn't have it already, installing a limited slip differential (LSD) or locking differentials will help reduce or completely eliminate that annoying wheelspin.....
It doesn't look like he has LSD.... Tires are OK. Driver needs more lessons. Read Subaru manual. They have plenty of good pointers in there. Get a Land-Rover or a Jeep if you want to just push gas-pedal and brake.
At a couple of points in the video one of the front wheels is spinning, spraying water, but the rear wheels aren't moving. If the rear is getting 50% power, why is this so ?

It certainly looks like no LSD and the automatic power distribution front-rear looks very poor. So much for AWD vs 4WD !!
sydneydoc 3 years ago
Not really an AWD vs. 4WD thing. The automatic Foresters decide their distribution. The manuals are typically close to 50-50.
