Shell Engine oil

It's perfectly fine for the WRX, and it's what I use in mine, as well as its two previous owners. My car's maintenance records include two reports from Blackstone Labs detailing their examination of the Rotella T6 5W-40 oil and according to those the engine has worn very well on that oil

Pros: engine has worn well

Shell Engine oil

I personally swapped from 5w-30 in my OBXT to T6 5w-40 and have noticed a decrease in oil consumption (newish engine with 28k so that also helps).

Pros: decrease oil consumption
Cons: catalytic convertor wear
Mileage: 28000 km

MOTUL Engine oil

For Motul you want xcess not X-clean. X-clean is only for things with direct injection. I would do xcess or t6, ether work in 5w-40. I do both of them with my stage 2.6 IAG block as they recommend. Mostly Motul, but the last change I did was t6 since I could not get motul locally or in a reasonable amount of time.

Pros: works well
Cons: availability issues

OEM Subaru Windshield

I have a 19 and have driven 30,000 so far, mostly highway. I’ve had pebbles hit the windows a few times, leaving a small crack once. Smaller than a dime. It’s been at least 6 months and it hasn’t grown at all.

Pros: crack didn't grow
Cons: small crack from pebbles
Vehicle: Subaru Forester
Mileage: 30000 km

OEM Subaru Brake pads

my local Subaru dealership listed my brake pads as needing replacement soon when they were literally brand new. That was because their system simply saw that I had 40,000 miles and had no record of the replacement. Nobody had actually examined my car to see if it needed brake pads.

Pros: brand new brake pads
Cons: pads needing replacement
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 40000 km
