Where does it state that? My Maintenance Manual is in my car, which is in for PCV valve replacement, finally, so, I cannot look... but I don't recall seeing that when I glanced at it early on.Why does Subaru maintenance schedule actually state to replace the fuel system lines and connections at the early age of 30,000 miles? I never heard of such a thing. Are they that fragile?
It is listed as replace on mysubaru.com service maintenance schedule for my 2019 Limited. Curiosuly, my printed manual says inspect. My dealer says the 30000 is just inspect (which makes much more sense to me). My research indicates the concern may involve ethanol in the fuel.Never mind, someone posted a pic. "I" is inspect, "R" is replace. Fuel system components are "I"nspect. There's no time/mileage based replacement requirement on them.

Thanks. I just attempted to let SOA know through their web email but I am not sure it went through.Odd, I'll report that discrepancy. Thanks.
At this point this is my working assumption.It has to be a typo. No way anyone is going to need to replace the fuel systems, lines, and connections at 30,000 miles (unless it's a 60's era British roadster). 😄
kinda like our push button start.On the subject of old British Roadsters this reminds me of my old Austin Healy Sprite 1966... the same as a MG Midget! Well being rusty with a positive ground there was quite a trick to getting her started. In this order this is what had to be done... turn on ign key. Turn radio on. Turn key to the right(cranking position) and hold while you turned the flasher on and it cranked and started... try and figure out where that ground plane routed itself. LOL![]()
Other than to ignore the error for now, no. Not yet.Is there any resolution on this? I have my 30k mile maintenance scheduled for thursday and the mysubaru.com app states this too..

SOA contacted me and simply stated the on line version is incorrect. Go by the written manual schedule.Is there any resolution on this? I have my 30k mile maintenance scheduled for thursday and the mysubaru.com app states this too..

Kudos to Subaru for acting so quickly. Typically a large corp takes much longer to complete the correction. And thanks for your help on this.I wanted to thank you all for bringing this to my attention. As promised, I've gotten it fixed, and, as promised, it is "Inspect" and not "replace".
Here's the 60,000 mile interval with the fix in place.
