I’m personally a big fan of shell rotella. That’s what I’ve always ran and haven’t had any issues. My 05 STI is at 163k miles still running strong
Subaru parts reviews
I’ve always used 5W-30 Castrol Edge Titanium, available at Wal Mart. My Blackstone report came back good a long time ago on it.
Now, my wife's '16 FORESTER XT, 2.0 turbo, has 130,000 miles, Amsoil changes every 10,000 miles, and still burns NO oil.
I've been using penzoil platinum
The Subaru left the dealership with Nokian Outpost APT tires on it . These tires can be left on all year and meet DOT specs for winter use. Anyway, I've been driving on Nokian All Weather tires for about 20 years now on different cars for a total of 300,000 to 400,000 Km in all kinds of weather and they performed exceptionally well. The advantage is you always have the right tires no matter what the weather.
Mobil 1 5w30 and oem Subaru filter. I change mine pretty religiously at 3750 miles. I know it might be overkill but I’d rather be safe than sorry and if my engine blows up I will for sure know it wasn’t my fault for neglecting maintenance.
When I got my 18 Limited, first thing I did was sell the stock tires on Craigslist. I went with the Yokohama Geolander AT tires, this was before there was a Wilderness trim level as those tires are what are on that car. 60,000 miles later they are getting down to a point where this would be the last summer I drive on them. Overall I enjoyed them, very good in the snow, quiet, good in the rain too and here in the PNW we get a fair amount of that.
Now their Subaru coolant is in fact different ..... It has a head gasket "helper" in it . not that its saved my head gaskets... lol
Had a subaru forester 2020 and had to replace the windshields twice and I believe at that time I paid almost 2500 in total before I upgraded to better insurance. I was always wondering how It kept breaking on me!
my 22 legacy has had one windshield repair and I have had to fill in 3 tiny cracks the past two years of owning.
