Yes, absolutely can use Bosch and they were fantastic.
Wait until you change the filter on a Subaru where the filter is upside down.
Honestly I just use whatever BMW certified oil I can find at a good price. Used Motul this time, had Castrol before that. Bosch oil filter.
Castrol 5w-30-M with Bosch filter.
[The filter was this](https://m.autodoc.co.uk/bosch/11156545)
You could do another oil and filter change to see if it was that or if the oil was just a coincidence.
Costco 5w30 synthetic with a genuine subaru filter every 3k miles lol
Oil Filters, I always use OEM Subaru oil filters, I just buy the bulk 12 pack from my dealer.
OEM Mahle/Mann are best. Next best is the higher end Bosch filters.
Happened to me last winter with a Bosch oil filter -- not even an el cheapo aftermarket filter, either. It looked someone had wrung it out like a dishrag.
Bosch filters are almost as bad a FRAM now.
