Engine Oil
RECOMMENDED OILAPI classification: SF or SG
The proper viscosity helps car get good cold and hot starting by reducing viscous friction and thus increasing cranking speed.
a. Insert the oil level gauge into gauge hole in proper direction as shown in the figure.
b. When replenishing oil, it does not matter if the oil to be added is a different brand from that in the engine, however, use oil having the API classification and SAE viscosity No. designated by SUBARU.
c. SAE 5W-30 is not recommended for sustained high speed driving.
d. If vehicle is used in desert areas or areas with very high temperatures or for other heavy duty applications, the following viscosity oils may be used:
30, 40, 10W-50, 20W-40, 20W-50
