Which engine oil (1998 impreza 2000 AWD)
 

Hi, anyone know which oil I can use for my 1998 2000 AWD Impreza?

hello mate
i have been useing silkolean pro r,15w50,for 4 years now no probs,runs sweet.was put on to it by people who know there stuff.but i would say as long as its synthetic and not halfords own you should be ok....remember jap cars are the best and are bomb proof,but dont cost cut on serviceing and lubes........

10w40 mobil super s semi synthetic

millers 10w 40 fully synthetic :thumb:

10w40 shell helix semi synthetic.
Now the point being that fully synthetic is fine, as long as the car has been run on it for most of its life, if you dont know what the car has been run on, go semi as putting fully synth oil in a car run on semi for 80k doesnt do much to prevent wear (the damage is done already, ie slightly more wear but nothing drastic, which the fully synth slows down).

:wonder: im quite new to the scooby scene.........done a service today
and used heilx 5w 30??...........oil that came out was very thin.
car has covered 84k(some km)
du think this will be ok????:confused:
(sorry for hijackin post!)

If its a classic (pre 2001) then change that oil, 30 rated is far too thin for a classic (it does state so in the handbook) so stick to a 5w40 fully synth (see my post above) or a 10w40 semi synth.
