Original owner ran Pennzoil ultra platinum and that I got 289,000 miles on that engine and turbo before I had a shop rebuilt it.
Have since switched to motul 5w-40. The extra protection.
I run liqui-molly 5w-40 molygen new generation. I change oil every 3k and I’m not necessarily easy on my car and the oil has come out great every time
I've been running 10W-40 Repsol Smarter full synthetic oil (motorcycle oil) in my '09 WRX STI for the last 10 years — I buy it in bulk, lol. No excess carbon deposits, and it still runs smooth with 238,000 miles on it.
Subaru 15208aa170 oil filters and mobil1 5w30 EP oil. 6000 mile oci backed up by oil analysis.
I run 5w40 motul because of upgraded turbo and other fuel parts. Its been very solid. ????
I replaced it with a OEM style koyorad I found for $130 and corrected the radiator caps and my temps have been perfect all summer. It is a bitch to burp the coolant so I recommend buying the spill-free funnel.
Yeah? I’ve been using Subaru oem oil in my 260kmile 2015 forester. It only burns a little.
this happened to me on Michigan Ave in Chicago during traffic. I have a 2020 forester as well. Has happened about 4x in the past few weeks; brought it to the dealer, they told me I just needed a new battery!
As I came to a stop, my car shut down as it does normally but the traffic began moving just as that happened. So as my car auto-stopped, I took my foot off the gas and the entire car seized - My Eye Sight was disabled, dashboard lights lit up and a high-pitched "There's clearly a fucking problem" chime screamed out at me. I had to put my car in to park (on a 4-lane highway in Boston traffic), stop the engine, restart and then recommence my drive. Fuck this feature in traffic. I'm turning that shit off from now on. EDIT: A huge "thank you" to this Sub for informing that this is a battery issue, and there was a battery drain settlement that should cover this - I specifically called that out in my service notes, and they replaced the battery under that warranty at no charge.
