Quick oil help ..
Hi all .. Need to change my oil before I have the car mapped by Simon JGM on Wednesday
It's an 05 type uk STi
I've been told a good quality synthetic 5w-40 is going to be best ??
But which manufacturer ? And how many litres am I going to need ? Also will a oem oil filter be okay ? Or shall I for a HKS item and a magnetic sump plug ?
Any help appreciated ..

I've just done a change on my 2005 STI. Used OEM filter from Scoobyparts and a magnetic sump plug.
I used Millers CFS 5W40 and my manual said 4litres. I put 4 litres in, let it settle but felt it was still just under full. Put another .5 litre in and it came bang up to the mark.
