Desert Road Trips & Camping with Your Subaru

Desert Escapes: Subaru Adventures & Glamping Near Moab Summer Road Trip Series – Mark Miller Subaru Midtown Utah summers are made for adventure—and there’s no better companion than your Subaru. Whether you're heading out from Salt Lake City or plotting a weekend escape from South Salt Lake, Southern Utah’s desert landscapes are calling. Red rock cliffs, starlit skies, and off-grid luxury await just a few hours away. At Mark Miller Subaru Midtown, we believe the journey should be just as unforgettable as the destination. So load up your Outback, pack your favorite trail snacks, and let your Subaru take you somewhere wild and wonderful. First Stop: Take the Scenic Route from SLC to Moab If you’ve never taken Highway 191 down to Moab in your Subaru, now’s the time. The drive is part of the experience—cruising past sandstone arches and open desert, your all-wheel-drive handling every curve with ease. With standard Subaru EyeSight® safety and smooth, road-trip-friendly mileage, you can relax and enjoy the view (and maybe a few podcasts along the way). Road Tip: Stop off in Helper, Utah, for coffee and a stretch—this tiny town has a surprisingly artsy main street. Stay in Style: Glamping Near Moab Skip the crowded campgrounds. If you’re looking for a quiet desert retreat that still offers Wi-Fi and hot showers, luxury glamping is the move. Where to Stay: ULUM Moab: Full safari-style tents with private bathrooms, wood-burning stoves, and yoga decks overlooking Looking Glass Arch. Under Canvas Moab: Tucked near Arches National Park, with stargazer tents, fire pits, and s’mores. Glamping Canyonlands: A more intimate spot near Monticello with hammocks, fire circles, and dark skies perfect for stargazing. Bonus: Most of these glamping spots are Subaru-friendly—gravel roads, remote turnouts, and high-clearance drives are no problem. Adventure Fuel: What to Do in the Desert Climb Something Ancient Looking Glass Arch or the Fisher Towers offer unforgettable views and a taste of technical climbing. Subaru drivers love pushing boundaries—and guided climbs are a great way to explore safely, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned adventurer. Paddle the Colorado River Paddleboarding along the Colorado is one of the best ways to beat the heat and see the red rock canyon walls from below. Rentals are easy, and many outfitters will shuttle your gear and your Subaru back to base. Hike & Wander You probably already have Arches and Canyonlands on your list—but don't miss lesser-known hikes like Corona Arch or Moonflower Canyon. Early morning drives in your Crosstrek or Forester will help you beat the crowds and catch golden hour over the red rocks. Local Flavor: Moab’s Wine & Farm Scene Spanish Valley Vineyards: Offers tastings daily with views of the La Sal Mountains. Easy Bee Farm: Sells local produce, baked goods, and handmade gifts—perfect for packing a picnic in the back of your Outback. Subaru Packing Tips: Be Desert-Ready Heading into canyon country?

How to Enable or Disable Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB) in Your Subaru | Mark Miller Subaru Utah

For Newer Subaru Models with a Touchscreen (Most 2018+ Outback, Forester, Crosstrek, Ascent, Legacy, etc.) Turn on your Subaru (ACC mode or full ignition). Tap the Home button on the touchscreen. Go to Settings (gear icon). Select Driver Assistance or Safety and Driving Assistance. Tap on Reverse Automatic Braking. Use the checkbox or toggle switch to enable or disable the system. Exit the menu—your preference will be saved automatically. Note: If RAB is turned off, a yellow icon may appear on your dashboard. For Older Subaru Models Without a Touchscreen (Some earlier models with physical controls) Shift into Park and turn on the ignition. Locate the RAB OFF button (usually near the steering wheel or center console). Press and hold the button until the RAB warning light appears—this confirms the system is off. To re-enable it, press and hold the button again until the light disappears. When Should You Disable Reverse Automatic Braking? While it’s recommended to leave RAB enabled for daily driving across West Valley, Taylorsville, and the rest of the Salt Lake area, here are times you might choose to turn it off: Going through a car wash Backing into a tight garage Towing a trailer or bike rack Performing a manual parking maneuver in narrow spaces Don’t forget to turn it back on afterward for maximum safety!

Subaru Auto Start Stop System

How to Disable Subaru’s Auto Start/Stop System? | Mark Miller Subaru

How To Video on Using Subaru Auto Start/Stop System This video discusses the Auto Start Stop feature of your Subaru. You'll learn about this environmentally friendly and fuel efficient feature and how to turn it on and off. Auto Start Stop is engineered to reduce fuel consumption, exhaust emissions, and idling noise. Keep in mind this informational video is specific to 2019 and newer Forester and 2020 and newer Crosstrek models equipped with CVT transmissions. What Is Subaru’s Auto Start/Stop System and How Does It Work? If you’ve driven a newer Subaru, you may have noticed your engine shuts off briefly at stoplights or in traffic—and then automatically restarts when you lift your foot off the brake. That’s thanks to Subaru’s Auto Start/Stop system, a fuel-saving technology designed to improve efficiency and reduce emissions without sacrificing performance. The system works by turning off the engine when the vehicle is at a complete stop and restarting it when you’re ready to move again. It’s most noticeable in city driving where frequent stops are common. The idea is simple: why burn fuel when you’re not going anywhere? Auto Start/Stop is standard on many newer Subaru models, including the Forester, Outback, Crosstrek, and Legacy. While it may take some getting used to, the system is seamless—and for those who prefer not to use it, there’s a dedicated button to disable it temporarily during your drive. By reducing idle time, Subaru’s Auto Start/Stop system helps drivers lower fuel costs and contribute to a cleaner environment—without compromising the safety, traction, or reliability Subaru is known for.

How to Set the Clock in Your Subaru – A Quick Guide from Mark Miller Subaru

Whether Daylight Saving Time just kicked in or you're adjusting to a new time zone, knowing how to set the clock in your Subaru is a must. At Mark Miller Subaru Midtown, serving Salt Lake City, Park City, Midvale, Murray, Holladay, West Valley, Taylorsville, and surrounding Utah communities, we’re here to make every part of car ownership easier—including your dashboard clock. Here’s a quick guide to help you set the time in your Subaru, no matter the model or year For Subaru Models with a Touchscreen (2015 and Newer) Most modern Subarus—like the Outback, Forester, Crosstrek, and Ascent —come equipped with a touchscreen infotainment system. If this sounds like your car, follow these steps: Start Your Vehicle and tap the Home button on the infotainment screen. Select the Settings icon (gear symbol). Tap Clock or Time/Date. Choose Auto Set to let your Subaru sync with GPS or cell signal. Prefer to set it manually? Tap Set Time or Adjust Time. Use the on-screen buttons or arrows to set the hour and minutes. Choose between 12-hour or 24-hour time format. Tap OK or Set to lock in the time. For Older Subaru Models Without a Touchscreen If your Subaru doesn’t have a touchscreen system—like some versions of the Impreza, Legacy, or older Outback models—you’ll likely be adjusting the time using physical buttons on the dash. Here’s how: Turn on the ignition (your Subaru doesn’t need to be running). Look for small buttons labeled " H " (hour) and " M " (minute), usually near the radio display. Press and hold the Clock or Set button until the numbers flash. Tap the H button to adjust the hour and M to change the minutes. Release the buttons, and the time will auto-set after a few seconds. Bonus: Use GPS to Auto-Sync Time If your Subaru is equipped with GPS navigation or connected STARLINK services, you can allow your vehicle to automatically sync the time via satellite: Go to Settings > Clock and enable Auto Time via GPS. It’s an easy way to ensure you’re always running on the right time—especially when crossing time zones or dealing with Daylight Saving changes. Still Need Help?

Mark Miller Subaru Midtown South Salt Lake Utah Oil Change Service

How to Change the Oil in Your Subaru Outback

An oil change is one of the most important and routine car maintenance activities. Keeping your car full of fresh engine oil is the best way to ensure its moving parts stay lubricated; this allows you to keep driving confidently across Salt Lake City, Millcreek, Holladay, Murray, West Valley City, and South Salt Lake for years to come. And while you can always bring your Subaru to the Mark Miller Subaru Midtown service center in South Salt Lake for an oil change, you can also do it pretty easily yourself with a little know-how. Schedule Service Contact Us Here at Mark Miller Subaru Midtown in South Salt Lake, we want to help you save money on routine maintenance—that’s why we’ve put together this quick Subaru Outback oil change guide to help you change your car’s oil at home. Review these steps and get your vehicle in great condition in no time! Of course, if you’d rather schedule service, our Subaru-trained technicians are here to help drivers throughout Salt Lake County. What Is an Oil Change? The oil inside your engine gets broken down over time due to the friction and heat of the engine. It also gets contaminated with dirt and other debris as you drive through busy streets in Salt Lake City or highways near West Valley City. After a while, these effects make for oil that doesn’t lubricate moving parts as well, which can lead to more friction and heat within your engine. If left untreated, your engine can completely fail. When you get an oil change (or do your own), all the old oil gets drained from your engine. The oil filter is also replaced to ensure that your engine continues to run smoothly. Finally, new oil is added, the specific type of which depends on your Subaru’s manufacturer specifications. These steps are pretty simple, and most South Salt Lake and Murray drivers can do them at home with a little know-how. When Should I Change My Oil? All cars need an oil change at regular intervals. Those intervals vary depending on your Subaru’s make, model, and year of manufacture. Check your Subaru Outback’s owner’s manual to determine the recommended intervals, or ask the experts at Mark Miller Subaru Midtown. A good rule of thumb is to change the oil every 10,000 miles—or if you drive your Subaru hard, commute daily into Salt Lake City, or experience stop-and-go traffic in Millcreek or Holladay, every 3,000 miles may be better. If you’re not sure, changing the oil in your Subaru should be done at least twice a year. Tools You’ll Need for Changing the Oil in a Subaru To change your Subaru’s oil at home in South Salt Lake, you’ll need a few easy-to-find tools. You should be able to find these at your local hardware or auto-parts store in Salt Lake City: Oil that matches the specs for your Subaru Outback A funnel to help you pour the oil Rubber gloves A replacement oil filter for your Outback An oil filter wrench A wrench for your car’s drain plug A drain pan or bucket to catch the old oil A hoist, jack stand, or ramps to lift your car Screwdrivers or wrenches Changing the Oil in Your Subaru Outback It wouldn’t be a Subaru Outback oil change guide without the steps! Follow these directions to perform an oil change from your driveway in Salt Lake County: Lift the car. Since you’ll be underneath the car, make sure it’s secure. You can lift your car with a set of jacks, or drive it onto ramps to raise the front end—but whatever you do, make sure it’s safe with wedges behind the back wheels. Remove the undertray. This protects engine components from road debris, grit, and grime around Salt Lake City roads. Remove it carefully and set aside. If you notice oil leaks, bring it to Mark Miller Subaru Midtown for inspection. Drain the old oil. Place a drain tray underneath the drain plug, loosen with a wrench, and allow the oil to fully drain. This may take five minutes or more. Remove and replace the filter. Loosen the oil filter, allow the oil to drain, then install a new filter with a lightly oiled gasket. This helps ensure a snug fit. Replace the undertray and lower the car. Re-tighten the drain cap, replace the undertray, and safely lower the car. Refill the engine. Add the correct amount of oil recommended by Subaru. Check the dipstick and let the car idle for a few minutes to circulate oil before driving around South Salt Lake again. Get Your Subaru Outback Oil Changed at Mark Miller Subaru Midtown Now that you’ve read our Subaru Outback oil change guide, you can see how easy it is to change your oil at home.

Mark Miller Subaru Midtown South Salt Lake Utah Spark Plug Service

How Often to Change Spark Plugs

Spark plugs are small components you rarely think about when they work properly. But they perform a crucial function for your Subaru’s internal combustion engine. Without spark plugs, your vehicle won’t move. They ignite the gas-air mixture in the combustion chamber to create the tiny explosions that move the pistons down. As the pistons move, they send power to the transmission to move your Subaru forward. In short — spark plugs provide the spark that drives your car across South Salt Lake, Salt Lake City, Millcreek, Murray, Holladay, and West Valley City every day. Schedule Service Contact Us Do you wonder how often to change the spark plugs in your Subaru? Experts generally recommend replacing spark plugs every 30,000 miles for the best performance. If one of your Subaru spark plugs wears out, it can cause reduced gas mileage and engine problems later on. Suddenly, you’ll notice a malfunctioning spark plug when you’re filling up at the gas station in Salt Lake County more often. How often you change spark plugs may vary depending on your Subaru’s year and model. Check your owner’s manual for specific recommendations. Your driver information screen may also alert you when it’s time. We highly recommend using OEM Subaru parts for spark plug replacement because they’re engineered to perform with your vehicle. Find out how often to change spark plugs and when to get new Subaru spark plugs with our guide. Then, contact the Mark Miller Subaru Midtown service center in South Salt Lake if you need spark plug service or other Subaru maintenance. Our certified Subaru technicians are here to help! How Spark Plugs Work to Power Your Subaru Your Subaru spark plugs transfer high-voltage current from the ignition coil to ignite the combustion chamber when you start your vehicle. Here’s how it works: Fuel injectors atomize gasoline into a fine mist inside the chamber. Air is added to the mix to provide oxygen for ignition. Spark plugs ignite the gas by releasing a spark at the precise moment the air and gasoline mix. Each small explosion pushes the pistons downward, powering the transmission and wheels. This process happens hundreds of times per minute, even while idling in Salt Lake City traffic. Over 30,000 miles, spark plugs perform millions of ignitions, which is why routine replacement is essential. When Should I Replace Subaru Spark Plugs? If spark plugs aren’t functioning properly, your Subaru’s performance will suffer. Replace them before they cause larger engine issues. Signs you may need new spark plugs include: Slow or no start Engine misfires Rough idling Poor acceleration High fuel consumption Lower fuel efficiency Spark plugs degrade over time, often collecting soot on the ignition tip, which weakens the spark. Faulty ignition coils can also cause failure. Our team at Mark Miller Subaru Midtown can inspect and replace your spark plugs quickly to keep your Subaru running smoothly in South Salt Lake and surrounding areas. Benefits of Replacing Subaru Spark Plugs Replacing spark plugs during routine Subaru maintenance ensures your engine stays in top shape. Benefits include: Improved fuel economy – Worn plugs can lower fuel efficiency by up to 30%. Replacing them helps restore gas mileage across Salt Lake County. Consistent combustion – Fresh plugs maintain proper combustion for smoother performance. Reliable starting – Your Subaru starts effortlessly when spark plugs are in good condition.
