Hey Lads,

Really enjoying my new UK 99V Subaru Wagon, the best car i have ever driven, even beats my old Volvo 850 T5 with 285bhp!!!!

In terms of oil, I found with my volvo that I went through mobile one like knowbody's business, went to mobile 1 semi synthetic, it seemed to do the trick.

In terms of my Scooby, is there a recognised oil that without a shadow of doubt is the one to use?

Also, I used to change the oil and filter in my T5 every 5K, do the same rules appy with the Scoob?

All help is appreciated lads

regards

Micky

I'd frequently change the oil & filter on the scooby, possibly every 3-5000 miles
