Default HOW MUCH OIL QUESTION?

Hi i am hoping to change the gearbox oil and diff oil in my 2007 subaru impreza wrx and was wondering how much i will need for the gearbox and diff?

Also i assume filling the diff is the same as it was in my classic as in top bolt to fill and bottom to drain?


Thanks for all your help!

I had the gearbox and diff oils changed today in my Prodrive 02 Sti...

rear diff 1 Litre Millers oil

Gearbox, just short of 5 litres Millers...

I would think yours is the same...

Default wrx

no mate the bug wrx has 5 speed and the sti has 6 speed so not same amounts of gearbox oil,dont quote me on this because ive not had bug wrx so not changed the oil in one.i know the 6 speed in my my02 sti takes about 4.2 - ish litres of oil and i used the syntrax in it and am not that keen on it,still feels a bit notchy and stiff so will change it for a better oil like the millers race oil,hth
