Engine oil OEM Subaru or ROWE
Changed ours at 3k and will change again at 6k. After that it’s every 5k. Use Subaru oil and filters.
As soon as my warranty is up on my SQ5 in November, I'll be going to Rowe Hitech Synth RS 5w-40. One of the very few true synthetic PAOs out there and on par with LiquiMoly pricing (USP Sells it w/free shipping).
Not really . My tuner (jackal motorsports) recommends Rowe RS synthetic oil . Currently using LM molygen , it's ok but apparentlyThe RS is the best stuff
I have done all my oil changes myself since I bought my 2019 Subaru outback 2.5l new using 5w-30 and have never had issues! Just hit 120k ????
Getting 30mpgs in my ‘14 and been running 5w30 for years, smoother and quieter
No issues with 5w-30. Switched my 21 Crosstrek to it due to the summer months coming. Little dip in mpg but the engine runs smoother.
Either way I have the impression that the engine has a smoother sound and feel now, can this be possibile or it's just a placebo ?
id put 17 at the okay point but any lower is not good - well my subaru would do about 18-17psi at idle so im sure alls fine
0w20 provides your engine with more wear protection .
There is minimal difference between 0w16 and 0w20, with 0w20 provided marginally better wear protection and 0w16 providing slightly better fuel efficiency since it's slightly thinner and provides less internal resistance.
I avoid the 5 minute drive-thru places. One of them wanted over $100 for full synthetic on my Subaru Forester. Not worth the 5 minutes.
