Subaru parts reviews

I use 5w30 Pennzoil platinum and a Fram Endurance synthetic oil filter in all my Subes.

I personally use Pennzoil Platinum in my Ascent and Mobil 1 in my Crosstrek, mostly for cost and availability reasons.

Hengst filter in the stock box. Generally stock is best for air filters and the classic paper filters work better at actually filtering out particulates than performance ones.

The brand I prefer seems to have gone out of production (Denso Designer aero frame style). These were OEM on my 2009 Forester and I used them on everything I own after discovering that. Getting harder to find complete pairs for my cars, I only have a few left that I've hoarded.

Quality is worth it, I replace wipers when they no longer perform up to expectations rather than on a set schedule.

I have a 2023 touring with the same problem. Dead battery multiple times within the first few months. The dealership put in a new larger battery (900 cca) Subaru brand, had to take out the factory battery tray to make room for it. No problems as of yet.

I have a drilled and slotted set with performance pads from R1 Concepts (was going ti replace pads but 1 rotor was bad). I have had them for about 4 months now and only complaint us the squeeky pads. I have a larger vehicle (Forester) so i feel the fade a bit sooner than most, but i feel these rotors do a good job of preventing that. I dont ride the brakea that hard but its still noticable.

Watch for leaking power steering pumps (lots of them seem to leak), and make sure the sway bar bushings are in good condition.

I have Mishmoto ( dont recommend) on my 2016 wrx in Arizona at 110 days w the Ac on it runs at 190-197 on the streets. While on the freeway its at 215 avg while cruising at 80mph. Been on my car since 2017 I think. But this was before CSF and whatnot came around. Can’t wait to save up and switch.

Make sure they use OEM or it's going to be an issue.
