Engine oil Mannol or OEM Subaru

I am using this exact oil at the moment and have no complaints.

Changed ours at 3k and will change again at 6k. After that it’s every 5k. Use Subaru oil and filters.

As an additional word of advice. Do not use Mannol 5w30 C3 oil when doing oil changes. Use a high quality oil- castrol,shells, millers.. these cars are very sensitive to oil

I've never had any issue with standard Mannol - my cars have always had it every 5k and I'm pleased with the results.

My Skoda gets fresh mannol every 12 months. No problems so far. It meets the VAG spec so all fine in my opinion.

VW recommends 505.01 for fixed service at 15k Km or 507.00 for flexible service at 30k Km. Since our driving condition is harsh, I usually cut those Km in half. Since you were pushing 505.01 at 12k I would recommend you use 507.00 5W30 LongLife for 15k to 18k to be on the safe zone especially if your runs are on highways. I’d highly recommend you check oil from Mannol 507.00, I’ve been using them and they are solid choice. It costs under 3.5k for 5L. You can fill 4.4L at change of oil and top up 200ml at 4,8 and 12k interval

I'm using mannol extreme 5 W 40, very good price quality.

Using Mannol for my diesel.

Yeah? I’ve been using Subaru oem oil in my 260kmile 2015 forester. It only burns a little.

Do not listen to them. I have a 2015 forester non turbo I used 5w30 and had all kinds of problems id get codes for over advanced timing on one bank and under advanced on the other, I was getting power loss going uphill, weird chattering noise.
