Also get a good Putolator or Subaru brand oil filter that is rated for the higher Subaru oil pressure so that it is filtering more often and not blowing open the internal filter bypass because Clean oil will make the engine last longer.
MAHLE is the OE supplier for the Hyundai/KIA filter you're trying to get.
Wait until you change the filter on a Subaru where the filter is upside down.
Mahle is the way. Allegedly the OEM maker and after using them for a year they look and feel exactly the same.
No one ever talks about this but the truth is the oil itself will always way outlast the oil filter. What you should be worried about is the paper filter, not the oil! Can your paper oil filter withstand 10k miles in between changes before slowly disintegrating into the oil? If you use a high quality OEM filter then the answer is yes. I use the original Mahle brand filters for my Audi.
Costco 5w30 synthetic with a genuine subaru filter every 3k miles lol
Oil Filters, I always use OEM Subaru oil filters, I just buy the bulk 12 pack from my dealer.
people are really set on the subaru filters as opposed to fram or others, and they’re really not very expensive so i just do it.
Yeah, the first thing I did was an oil change. I put liqui moly 5w-40 in the car and the oil level is top of the dipstick (EDIT: within the max/min level on the dipstick, top of max, I should specify). I put a Mahle filter in there as well.
The blue Subaru filters are garbage. Made my FRAM in US. Use the black ones from Japan instead.
