Oil filter K&N or OEM Subaru
Get some ramps, 17mm socket, oil (5w30 or 0w20), oil filter (Subaru p/n 15208AA170.... don't know the Toyota p/n off the top of my head)
That won’t happen if you were using a K&N oil filter. All these cheap brand filters are not sturdy and will collapse when you’re trying to take them off when stuck… either The Black K&N select filter or the white Premium filter will avoid this problem from happening…
Also the K&N oil filter is superior to HD’s despite the recent upgrade. The K&N has a better flow.
K&N HP1002 because it has a hex on the end that makes taking it off through the wheel well really easy. Don't even have to jack up the car, just remove the rear splash guard.
That is why I always buy a k&n filter where can just use a wrench.
I put a K&N nut topped filter on it and never had to do that again!
I personally don’t use k&n oil filters. They filter great but I’m not a fan of their flow.
KN filters are gay, watch freedom worx YouTube video about Oem vs KN filters. You'll wanna swap right back!
Previously used the k&n one and it always leaked. After 3 filters, i switched
K&N is probably the most annoying with the rounded off nut they expect you to use to get the filter off. I'll never buy one of those again.
