1. Open the engine oil filter cap for quick draining of the engine oil. 2.5 L model 3.0 L model
2. Drain the engine oil by removing the engine oil drain plug. 2.5 L model 3.0 L model
3. Tighten the engine oil drain plug after draining the engine oil. NOTE: Use a new drain plug gasket. Tightening torque: 44 N.m (4.5 kgf-m, 33 ft-lb) 2.5 L model 3.0 L model
4. Fill engine oil through the level gauge up to the center between the upper level and the lower level. Place the vehicle on a level surface when checking oil level. Use engine oil of the proper quality and viscosity, selected in accordance with the following. Recommended oil: Refer to "RM" section. LUBRICANTS .> Engine oil capacity 2.5 L model Upper level: Approx. 4.0 l (4.2 US qt, 3.5 lmp qt) Lower level: Approx. 3.0 l (3.2 US qt, 2.6 lmp qt) 3.0 L model Upper level: Approx. 5.5 l (5.8 US qt, 4.8 lmp qt) Lower level: Approx. 4.5 l (4.8 US qt, 4.0 lmp qt) The proper viscosity oil helps the engine maintain its ideal temperature, and cranking speed increased by reducing viscosity friction in hot condition. CAUTION: It is acceptable to fill an engine with oil of another brand when replacing the oil, but make sure to use an oil with an API standard and SAE viscosity number specified by Subaru. NOTE: If the vehicle is used in regions of high temperature or in other severe environments, use oil with the viscosities shown below. API Standard: SM SAE Viscosity No.: 30, 40, 10W - 50, 20W - 40, 20W - 50
5. Close the engine oil filler cap. CAUTION: If the engine oil is split over exhaust pipe or the under cover, wipe it off with cloth to avoid emitting smoke or causing a fire.
6. Start the engine and warm it up for a time.
7. Stop the engine to inspect the oil level again. INSPECTION .>

Scheme 48

Scheme 49

1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
3. Reinsert the level gauge all the way. Be sure that the level gauge is correctly inserted and in the proper orientation.
4. Remove the level gauge again and record the oil level. If the engine oil level is below the "L" line, add oil to bring the level up to the "F" line. 2.5 L model 3.0 L model
5. After turning off the engine, wait a few minutes for the oil to drain back into the oil pan before checking the level.
6. Just after driving or while the engine is warm, engine oil level may show in the range between the "F" line and the notch mark. This is caused by thermal expansion of engine oil. (2.5L model)
7. To prevent overfilling the engine oil, do not add oil above the "F" line when the engine is cold. CAUTION: If the engine oil is spilt over exhaust pipe or the under cover, wipe it off with cloth to avoid emitting smoke or causing a fire.

1. Remove the service hole cover clip. 2.5 L model 3.0 L model
2. Rotate the service hole cover in the direction of the arrow. 2.5 L model 3.0 L model
3. Remove the oil filter using the ST. 3.0 L model ST 49857000 OIL FILTER WRENCH (outer diameter: 80 mm (3.15 in)) 2.5 L model ST 18332AA000 OIL FILTER WRENCH (outer diameter: 68 mm (2.68 in)) ST 18332AA010 OIL FILTER WRENCH (outer diameter: 65 mm (2.56 in)) NOTE: However, in 2.5 model, SUBARU genuine oil filter having outer diameter of 68 mm (2.68 in) or 65 mm (2.6 in) can also be used. 2.5 L model 3.0 L model
4. Obtain a new oil filter and apply a thin coat of engine oil to the seal rubber.
5. To install the oil filter, turn the filter by hand while being careful not to damage the seal rubber. When the seal rubber just touches the oil cooler, tighten by using a torque wrench or turn the filter by the specified amount. CAUTION: Do not tighten excessively, or oil may leak. 3.0 L model Oil filter 80 mm (3.15 in) in outer diameter 14 N.m (1.4 kgf-m, 10.3 ft-lb) or tighten 3/4 rotation. 2.5 L model Oil filter 68 mm (2.68 in) in outer diameter 14 N.m (1.4 kgf-m, 10.3 ft-lb) or tighten 1 rotation. Oil filter 65 mm (2.56 in) in outer diameter 12 N.m (1.2 kgf-m, 8.7 ft-lb) or tighten 2/3 - 3/4 rotation. CAUTION: If the engine oil is spilt over exhaust pipe or the under cover, wipe it off with cloth to avoid emitting smoke or causing a fire.
6. After installing the oil filter, run the engine and make sure that no oil is leaking around seal rubber. NOTE: The filter element and filter case are permanently jointed; therefore, interior cleaning is not necessary.
7. Check the engine oil level. INSPECTION .>

POWER STEERING FLUID FOR LEAKS

Inspect the underside of oil pump and gearbox of power steering system, hoses, pipes and their couplings for fluid leaks.

If the fluid leaks are found, retighten their fitting bolts (or nuts) and/or replace their parts.

Note. Wipe the leaked fluid off after correcting fluid leaks. Also pay attention to clearances between hoses (or pipes) and other parts when inspecting fluid leaks.
