SERVICE BULLETIN

APPLICABILITY: All Models
NUMBER: 14-22-16R
SUBJECT: Special Service Tool Cross Reference List
DATE: 07/21/16

REVISED: 06/25/19
INTRODUCTION:

To help reduce confusion and increase technician efficiency, Subaru of America, Inc. (SOA) has developed the following cross reference list to

help locate the appropriate Special Service Tool.

There are situations where the tool called for in the Service Manual is not the tool that SOA recommends for the job. Examples of these situations

include:

* An equivalent tool is offered under a different part number

* SOA develops a tool that is not included in the Service Manual

To help locate tools, in addition to the Service Manual Tool Part Number and the Special Service Tool Part Number, where available, the part

number for the essential tool kit release has been included.

REMINDER: SOA strongly discourages the printing and/or local storage of service information as previously released information and electronic

publications may be updated at any time. Always refer to STIS for the latest service information before performing any repairs.

If you have questions or suggestions, please contact Subaru Service Operations at serviceoperations@subaru.com.
CAUTION: VEHICLE SERVICING PERFORMED BY UNTRAINED PERSONS COULD RESULT

IN SERIOUS INJURY TO THOSE PERSONS OR TO OTHERS.

Subaru Service Bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians ONLY. They are written to inform those technicians

of conditions that may occur in some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper servicing of the vehicle.

Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do the job correctly and safely. If a

condition is described, DO NOT assume that this Service Bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition.
Bulletin Number: 14-22-16R; Revised 06/25/19
SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC. IS

ISO 14001 COMPLIANT

ISO 14001 is the international standard for excellence in Environmental

Management Systems. Please recycle or dispose of automotive

products in a manner that is friendly to our environment and in
