2025 Subaru Outback Service and Repair Manual

Nine trims make up the 2025 Outback lineup, the last year of the sixth generation before the redesign. The Base, Premium, Onyx Edition, Limited and Touring use the 182 hp 2.5L flat-four, and the Onyx Edition XT, Limited XT, Touring XT and Wilderness use the 260 hp turbocharged 2.4L flat-four, all with a CVT and standard all-wheel drive. The Wilderness adds 9.5 inches of ground clearance and dual-function X-MODE. Two engines and very different trim hardware make year-exact data important, and this factory service and repair manual supplies the 2025 procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams, diagnostics and maintenance schedules.
