I recently purchased a one owner 2012 Subaru Outback 2.5i with 152,000 miles.
The previous owner said 5w-30 conventional oil was used at all oil changes for the 10 years he owned the car.
I know he had the oil changes done at the Subaru dealer as well as other shops.
My question is - with 5w-30 conventional oil being hard to find would there be any concerns with switching to a quality 5w-30 synthetic blend high mileage oil?
