How to Remove the Rear Bumper of a Subaru Outback

Model: Subaru Outback BS, MK 5 - Years 2014-2019
Part: Rear bumper

To change the rear bumper of your Subaru Outback, you need to locate two small hidden openings in the bodywork of your vehicle. Here are the main screws you need to unscrew to remove the bumper. Remove the plastic covers, starting from the bottom (there is one screw and one clip on each side). The rest of the bumper is attached with clips and will come off easily, except for the lower fixing of the stone and mud guard. Once you have removed the clips holding this part to the bodywork, you can remove the bumper without any issues. A rear bumper for a Subaru Outback costs around £285 on major e-commerce platforms, to which you need to add the cost of painting to match the body colour.

To replace the filter, first, go underneath the vehicle, taking all necessary safety precautions. Then, using an 18mm wrench, open the drain valve and allow any water present to escape.
