WRX engine Oil
Hi I have a completely standard 53 plate wrx whose engine oil needs topping up. What should I put in it as I have not needed to do this before?
Thanks,
P.

Standard oil Subaru dealer uses was Shell semi-synthetic if i remember rightly.
That is what i was using in my MY03 WRX before i had it modded.
Shell Helix Plus it was.

Are there any warranty implications if you put in oil that isnt supplied by a dealership?
What might i be able to buy from the local petrol station that I could put in today?

Pour some semi synthetic oil into a glass, then add some fully synthetic to it...
Still looks like oil doesn't it? - You try telling the 2 different oils apart now
Did you think that they would curdle, or one would sit on top of the other?
