urgent - what oil do subaru use
What oil do dealers use when they do a normal service?
03 wrx by the way |
mobil 1 15/50
|
gtx magnatec
|
Thats what the dealers use right?
My oil is low and I wont be able to get it changed till next week and want to make sure I get the same grade sitting in halfords car park right no lol. (thank god for 3G!) |
Halfords keep information of all manufacture recomended oil grades on file the only thing they cant tell you is what brand the dealer uses
|
Halfords say part synth 5w/30, but I am sure the dealer uses 5w/40 fuly synthetic.
Not got a clue, just hope its ok till next week, |
I use Silkolene Pro S 10/50
|
The system will list two a premium and a standard oil
|
If the dealer is using 5/40 full synthetic then chances are it's the Mobil1 that is approved and supplied to Subaru dealerships and not available elsewhere. Most dealerships however, use semi-synthetic - usually Castrol Magnatec 10/40, sometimes Shell Helix 10/40

I purchesed a new oil filter and sump nut washer today and asked one of the mechanics what oil subaru used .
Answer - shell helix ultra 5/40 |
Yeah thats what I thought.
Car only took about 1/4L to top up. Will get the oil changed at the service next week. |
