been using Castrol edge 5w-30 for the past 5 years My WRX engine still feels responsive but i know 5-40w is good overhead for high temps
switched to Bosch Icons and have had zero issues.
I only use WIX filters on my 04XT. They’re about the only ones that have the correct bypass pressure rating off the Amazon “shelf,” and their build quality is top-notch. I pay attention to things like this because I have an older turbocharged model with performance upgrades- she’s a bit picky haha.
When I bought my 17 PP the previous owner had Bosch pads installed that screeched nonstop, i avoided driving through parking lots because of how bad it sounded. I replaced them with Brembo pads and couldn’t be happier
I will say, we got a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2s at Costco for our Subaru Impreza and love them.
My first two windshields were Carlex brand, and they were trash. Both chipped multiple times from minor rock chips that ended up spiderwebbing even after repair. Anything has to be better than Carlex.
My 3rd and current windshield is Pilkington and so far seems great. Shrugged off a pretty nasty rock hit with barely a scuff.
Since then I have take good care of it, replaced the brakes on schedule in August 2020 and then in August 2021 new spark plugs.
I went with the Yoko Geolanders. They are quieter than the Michelins that they replaced, but my gas mileage has dropped like 5%.
2021 Outback XT and my Yokohama tires drive on snow like it's concrete.
Can confirm , the dunlops are absolute garbage in the snow. Bought a set of beater oem 16 wrx wheels off of marketplace today and will be slapping on some premium awd snow donut shoes tomorrow, almost hit a curb going five mph leaving a stoplight. They have as much traction in snow , as a puck has on a air hockey table.. prepare to buy tires if you live in a winter challenged climate .
