Do Subarus need special oil?
Using the right kind of oil is important for the protection, performance, and longevity of your engine. We recommend using Genuine Subaru Oil because it’s the ONLY oil specifically designed for the lubrication requirements of your unique SUBARU BOXER® engine.
Can you use 5W-30 instead of 0W-20?
0w-20 is simply a different viscosity of oil. It won’t be an advantage to your engine if your manufacturer suggests you use 5w-30 and may indeed be a detriment to your engine. 0w-20 may be a recommended oil for certain conditions for your engine and may not be recommended for your engine.
