Engine oil VALVOLINE or PENNZOIL

I really liked Valvoline, good quality, reasonble price.

Valvoline Restore & Protect or Pennzoil Ultra Platinum are also great oils to run and clear up and baked on sludge.

SP certified oils have better LSPI protection than SN, and SP is what Subaru requires for this generation.

Buy Valvoline oil, and maybe it's a good time to switch to 5w-30 in it.

I use PUP 0w20 in mine. Lots of tests and UOA show that Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is the best non-boutique oil you can buy. But honestly any top shelf oil will work. 5k km intervals are more important than brand with a turbo engine.

Do her a favor a change the oil, with Valvoline Restore and Protect or Pennzoil Ultra platinum, it will quite down a little and it would be great for the car.

I only run Valvoline VR-1 40-wt in my air-cooled VWs

I tell you the stuff really works. My 2009 Matrix used to burn oil before I switched to Valvoline Restore and Protect.

My last [Blackstone-labs.com](http://Blackstone-labs.com) report came back with 1.8% fuel dilution. 2021 1.5T at 23kmiles, 6800 miles on the oil (0w20 Valvoline R&P).

I use that Valvoline, sometimes throw in random fully synthetic oils I get in bulk from an auction. I feel like it contributed to a rear main seal leak. Thinking of switching to a 5w40
