Oil filter OEM Subaru or Mobil
I do use Mobil1, PenzPlatinum, or Valvoline and replace the filter with each change.
Plus a Mobil1 20K filter.
Usually AutoZone near me runs a deal: but 5 quarts of Mobile 1, get a discount on the Mobile 1 filter...
It's worked for over a decade.
I've had my truck nearly 30 years now and DIY'd DOZENS of oil changes. I've not once used an OEM filter. I use whatever's on sale, preferably K&N or Mobil 1, but often Fram or Purolator or whatever was on sale.
I can count on zero hands the number of times the brand of filter has affected my Taco.
I have 234k miles on my 2016 Outback and I usually use Napa or O’Reilly house brand oil and either a Subaru or WIX filter.
if your car is stock, you don't have to worry too much about the oil and filter. i think last time i went with a mobile 1 filter and their extended performance oil but I have used other brands too. any OEM filter will be fine.
I prefer mobil 1 or wix filters, mobil 1 or castrol oil usually
Not that particular one, but I always used mobile 1 filters with all my vehicles, did with my ‘11 touring for the first couple changes, until we started to carry the OEM filter at store level
I use Mobil 1 Extended Performance High Mileage on my Z with their bigger filter too. Haven’t noticed anything bad.
The blue Subaru filters are garbage. Made my FRAM in US. Use the black ones from Japan instead.
