Want to do a mid service oil change - just as a crimbo treat for me scoob.

Only thing is can't for the life of me remember how much oil goes in these wonderful vehicles.

Any help lads, will be greatly appreciated

Cheers, BaldyMan

 

Would help to know which model you have, but generally, the impreza ( classic atleast ) holds around 4.5 litres. This recent thread should help:

1) Warm engine
2) Drain old oil from sump
3) Remove old filter
4) Pre-fill new filter with fresh oil. Fill and keep filling until it won't take anymore.
5) Apply new filter
6) Apply new washer to sump plug and tighten
7) Fill engine oil filler to mid-way between two holes on the dipstick
8) Disconnect crank sensor
9) (Preferably) remove spark plugs
10) Dry crank engine at least until oil pressure light extinguishes - ideally for 20 seconds or so more.
11) Refit spark plugs
12) Refit crank sensor plug
13) Start engine, leave to idle for a good minute or so before driving for oil pressure to stabilise
14) Check sump plug and filter seal for adequate tightness/leaks
15) Go for slow drive until engine fully warmed
16) Top engine oil to upper hole
17) Check sump plug and filter seal for adequate tightness/leaks

The plug removal bit is going a bit far maybe, and the crank sensor is under the alternator.
