Default Best oil for 2003 WRX

Hi

Have had a quick search but can't find any thread detailing the best oil to use.

My previous car ran on 10w 40

Can anyone help?

Thank you

Does anyone in West Yorkshire stock Millers CFS 10w40? Preforably near Wakefield, I looked all over for some a few weeks back and the nearest was in York.

Cheers buds! To say it's so highly recommended not many places are willing to stock it.

But I suppose it's about bulk discount from suppliers.


The search function is not always brilliant I try and find out some info on bad compression and you have to read through 14 pages of a 150bhp nitrous project to get to your topic.

While I was looking for a suitable oil for my car I found this site, will obviously only recommend castrol oils but will at least give you a recommended weighting
