Hello all,
Recently my girlfriend had a deer hit her old plastic Saturn which left it without a front quarter panel or door panel. After a few days of searching we found a 2008 Subaru Outback manual with 50,000 miles in excellent condition.
I've been doing some research on here since I dont know much regarding the flat fours in them. So far ive figured out that we either need to buy a genuine subaru oil filter, or go to napa and get the correct one spec'd for the high PSI bypass valve setting.
Her Outback is the NA 2.5l, I know it calls for 5w30, locally I can get any M1, or PP in any weight. I was thinking of maybe running M1 0w40 in it since its what I run in my Si and its been a great oil. I was also thinking of maybe running Rotella T6 since I can get that locally too. It seems like there are many opinions out there regarding these flat fours and id like to hear some options on what I should buy.
