errr, hold on a moment, have you ever heard, the more you look after something, the better off it will be.
i have just filled mine up with a millers oil, and that was £40 for 5ltrs, and that was at a discount price too
so £15.99 sounds like maple syrup (sp) your using lol

HANDBOOK, HANDBOOK, HANDBOOK ....... only dimwits and idiots chuck anything else in their car - forget anything above £15 for 5 Litres ... you will be wasting your money!!
The expensive Oil is NOT better if the Oil is changed according to Subaru specification ........ it is, and always will be, an utter waste of money!

Real Maple Syrup is far, far more expensive than £15.99 a gallon. Even Maple flavoured syrup will cost more - the real thing a lot more

Hate's a strong word... but I hate people who think that a twelve year old ordinary import Subaru is worth only a thousand pounds less than a well-looked-after UK one with FSH and HALF the age.

in your engine?Slowly but surely you're breaking into the 21st century?
I know engineers are logical people but they're usually intelligent enough to take advantage of the developments done by other engineers?JohnD
PS To get back to the original question - Good quality 5/40 or 10/40 full synthetic. You only need higher viscosity if you take it on track regularly. As good as any in my opinion - www.millersoils.com CFS range
