I've been running cheap Rotella T6 for 20 years with modified STIs, zero issues.
Subaru parts reviews
3 years ago I went to scout a trout lake... my absolutely stock OBW (save for tires, have Falken Wildpeak AT-Trails) handles it like an absolute champ. I thought for sure that I'd break something, but the car came out identical to how it came in, save for being much dirtier.
Have noticed on several times that when I went from Subaru OEM oil to Amsoil BACK to OEM that it runs much quieter and smoother on Amsoil.
Subaru. I have difficulty breaking traction in a crosstrek sport (2.5l) with Michelin CC2 tires in light snow. I can’t see how anything could be better.
Nokian hakkapeliitta r5s on the crosstrek made easy work
Moved here from Ontario last month and bought my first pair of proper winter tires, studded Nokian Hakkas. Legit night and day difference from the all seasons I had before on my AWD Outback
Reseal the oil pump even if the backplate bolts are not loose add Loctite. My 99 outback legacy wagon threw a rod because the oil pump backplate bolts where completely loose.
It\u2019ll be okay. Subaru engines are robust and that mix rate won\u2019t increase the viscosity enough to affect the oil flow rate out to the cams.\nPardon my skepticism regarding Castrol oils though. Haven\u2019t been a fan of them since the GTX days. The additives they\u2019d chuck in their generically sourced base oils glazed bores and gummed lifters.\nCost many a machine shop like ours a fortune in comeback work.
Faulkens are hot garbage. Had them on our subaru ascent and also on our cx90. On our ascent they lasted 22,000 lol
I hate the OEM Brembos. There were several micro-fractures on the holes when I swapped out the rotors.
