How to get the right WRX manual

  1. Find your VIN on the driver's side of the dashboard or the door jamb label, and decode it below to confirm the model year and trim.
  2. Open the official Subaru owner site and choose the WRX.
  3. Select your model year. If the site asks for a VIN, use it so the manual matches your exact equipment.
  4. Download the owner's manual plus any separate guides for navigation, infotainment, warranty and maintenance.
  5. Save the PDF to your phone so it's there when you're in the car without signal.

About Subaru manuals

Subaru publishes owner's manuals and a warranty and maintenance booklet. EyeSight driver assist has a dedicated section, and it is worth reading because windshield replacement affects the cameras.

Questions

Where can I get the Subaru WRX owner's manual?

Subaru publishes owner's manuals on its official owner site (subaru.com). Choose the WRX and your model year, or sign in with your VIN so the manual matches your trim.

Is the manual the same for every WRX year?

No. Manuals are written for each model year and the WRX spans 2015–2026. Equipment, infotainment and maintenance intervals change between years and generations, so always use the edition for your year.

How do I check recalls on a Subaru WRX?

Use the recall checker on this page, which searches NHTSA's recall database by model year. Recalls apply to specific VINs, so confirm with a Subaru dealer or at nhtsa.gov/recalls using your 17 character VIN.
