Originally Posted By: MolaKule Does it have a common sump for the differential AND the transmission? If this subie has the common sump for the hypoid differential AND the transmission then it does needs a 75W90 GL-5 synchromesh fluid. Yeah the front diff and trans share a common sump.

Got my 02 WRX with 109K on the clock. Previous owner, always took it to the dealer, and their fluids of choice were standard Valvoline oils. In the colder MI winter months it was really sluggish and hard to get into gear until warm. I tried full synthetic, and cold shifting was improved, but...

Originally Posted By: MichiganMadMan You are going to need a +1 quart for the change, hope you don't mind having a "growler" around to make up the difference. There are a lot of people with high oil consumption on the FB equipped Foresters, so check your oil at every fill up (you probably do...

I used to run German Castrol in my Roadmaster. Had 180K on it when I sold it.

I tried to look for some UOAs, but with a limit on the search dates, I seem to be coming up empty. Wife got a 12' Forester (20,000 miles) with the FB25 2.5L Engine. OM calls for 7500 mile OCIs with 0w20 oil. Anyone found an off the shelf 0w20 that is trending with good results in this motor? I...

Originally Posted By: chubbs1 Isn't a bad UOA at all. Any reason you don't run it longer? Your driving style would probably be right in line with double this mileage. Nothing seems worth noting besides a good run. Thanks for posting this! Not really. I just hadn't gotten around to doing a UOA...

Car: 2002 Subaru WRX Wagon. Total Miles: 127,XXX Miles on Oil: 3,200 Oil: 0w30 German Castrol Syntec Makeup Oil: 0 quarts Filter: OEM Blue Subaru Filter I bought my WRX last year with 108,000 Miles on the clock. Previous owner religiously changed the oil every 3-4000 miles at the dealer, with...

yes stainless steel sights. Wish I would have known there was a second and even third twin to this revolver and I would have bought all three of them.

Picked this up from an estate sale. NIB or [censored] close to it. Never had a .357 Magnum before, now I do S&W Model 66, No Dash, .357 Magnum
