About the Subaru Forester Lineartronic CVT
The fourth-generation Forester CVT works with Subaru's X-Mode traction system on many trims and uses a chain-type drive.
Fitment notes
XT turbo models use a different CVT. The listing covers the 2014-2018 model years, but options such as drivetrain, emissions package and trim can change the correct part within a single year. That is why we confirm every order with your VIN and the transmission code before you pay.
- Share your 17-character VIN with your quote request.
- Tell us whether the vehicle is 2WD, 4WD or AWD.
