I have finished 1 oil change at 4k miles on a 2014 impreza that the previous owner religiously changed at 8k miles with cheap oil and cheap filters. My MPG improved a little and oil consumption went from 1 qt every 1k miles to 1 qt at 3k miles. I also commute 54 miles daily so the oil wasnt in the car that long. I "feel" like its doing something.
Pros: MPG improved, less oil consumption

My wife has over 50k miles on a set of Michelin CrossClimate2 tires on her Impreza and they still have a good amount of tread on them.
Pros: long lifespan, good tread

Subarus are easy to work on for all the basics you’ll be doing, my only gripe on mine (08 Impreza) is the oil filter is in between the headers but I can live with that.
Pros: easy to work on
Cons: oil filter placement

I put a set of Continental TrueContact Tour on our 2016 about this time last year and so far so good. They do OK in the snow (we don’t get a lot or heavy) and I don’t think they are noisy compared to the Yokohamas that were on them before. We put a lot of highway miles on them and they handle well in the rain. Pacific Northwest, so I worry more about driving in the rain over other conditions.
Pros: OK in snow, not noisy, handle well in rain

Michelin Cross Climate 2 on my 09 Impreza sedan. Road noise is better than the winters I had, but I’ve heard they’re kinda noisy to some people. Wet and dry performance, especially in the hotter months is significantly better than my winter tires, and I feel much more connected to the road. Spirited drives on twisty backroads feel much better. In snow storms, starting/stopping feels amazing, like the snow isn’t even there, and I’ve never had an issue pulling through 5+ inches of snow. Making light and smooth turns has also been very good. However, I find it much easier to break traction compared to my previous winter tires if you’re being reckless, and it's harder to regain. Aggressive 90-degree downhill turns can make the back end step out. There's also a reported 1-3 mpg hit. Despite this, I would most likely buy them again.
Pros: better road noise, excellent wet/dry grip, amazing snow performance, connected feel
Cons: can be noisy, easier to break traction, mpg hit

Michelin cross climate 2’s on my 2016 Impreza sport hatch 5mt. I’ve had them for about a year and a half in central PA and they’ve treated me very well. They’re awesome in snow and the tread life has been good so far. They’re a little more noisy on the highway, but I definitely feel more comfortable driving the car in bad weather over my Jeep, unless the snow fall is over like 8 inches. Michelin cross climate 2 gets my vote!
Pros: awesome in snow, good tread life, comfortable in bad weather
Cons: a little noisy on highway
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza
My car does not start well. I had replaced the battery myself, which helped it not be so bad.

Aisin THF-003 thermostat was used (I believe this is what I'm regretting). It's like the thermostat isn't opening? Everything else seems fine - it's clearly getting hot. Little to no heat at idle. No circulation = overheating of the engine. Is the replacement thermostat stuck shut?
Cons: thermostat not opening, overheating engine, little to no heat
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza
Part number: THF-003
Had to replace my windshield once & have had to seal two cracks.
Cons: prone to cracking, frequent repairs
