Every 5k miles. Mobil 1 0w20. OEM filter.
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.
I only use mobil1 high mileage and mobil1 filters for my 99
I always use Mobil 1 oil filters for my Miata. Does the job well. You can use the M110A filter instead of the M108 (stock size Mobil 1 oil filter). The M110A is larger than the stock size which means you'll have a larger filter media surface area, slightly larger oil volume and flow, and it's easier to reach whenever you change the filter. Fits with zero issues and costs the same as the smaller stock size too.
+1 on Mobil 1 oil and for the filter Bosch or Mobil 1 extended performance filter (both are about the same cost as OEM, but have better filtering)
Not only is it fine, it’s widely considered the best option for the WRX. I have had multiple cars and always did my own oil changes. On my first oil change on the WRX I used my (at that time) tried and true Mobil 1 high performance oil filter and the seal blew and made a mess. Luckily I caught it before any damage was done. Since then I’ve exclusively used Subaru OEM oil filters and had zero issues.
I've always used Castrol bit my buddy swears by Mobil 1. I personally think that most name brand full synthetic oils are pretty similar. Not all filters are created equal though. I like wix xp but Mobil 1 makes great filters too
It's been a year since I changed mine and several thousand kms and I haven't had any warning lights or problems since. I used a Mobil 1 Extended Performance Filter M1C-451.
I wanted to give you guys a little insight on my recent discovery. I have always changed my oil @ 10K miles, using mainly pentosin and Hengst or mann filters. On occasion when I don't have time to wait for oil to ship to me, I've used German Castrol and autozone filters (either STP, Fram or Mobil 1). The picture below is what my mobil 1 oil filter looked like after 9K miles w/ German Castrol. Mind you I have NEVER had a Hengst/Mann/Fram/STP look like this when changing my oil. Another tid bit of info, My oil was much blacker this oil change than it has ever been.
