You should be mindful of the Subaru Ascent's transmission temperature. As in the automatic WRX, the Subaru Ascent has a CVT transmission. To make this transmission last there are a few important considerations about the transmission temperature and the life of the CVT fluid within it. I cover the reasons why it’s so important, how to read the transmission temperature, and what you can do about it.

The videos I reference throughout and which could be of interest to you are:

How to read the CVT temperature--    • How to Read WRX CVT Transmission Temp...   -- As mentioned in the video, this tutorial was made for the WRX, however it is the exact same procedure for the Ascent as I tested and verified that it works.

Transmission Cooler Pre-Install Discussion--    • WRX CVT Transmission Cooler Upgrade: ...   -- I go more in depth about the role of the transmission fluid as well as transmission cooler installation options. Again, this is for the WRX, but the theory is the same for the Ascent

Transmission Cooler Installation in WRX--    • Mishimoto CVT Cooler Install w/ Therm...   -- If you want to know what the cooler installation entails.

There are a lot of accessories for the Ascent, but here are a few of my favorites:

Front Windshield Sunshade ----- https://amzn.to/30Vh9P9 This is a must-have to keep temps at bay and protect the dash during the summertime.
Crossbar set ----- https://amzn.to/2SJCM2i If you will be hauling a full load you will need these to use some sort of rooftop carrier since space in the back will be limited.
All weather floor mats ----- https://amzn.to/2yarF8W I don’t thing I will ever use the regular floor mats again. These are so easy to clean and are fitted for the Ascent.
Battery Warmer Kit ----- https://amzn.to/2M9DvIK This will save your battery in the winter if you like in a cold environment.
