Carquest Premium 84712 in use 9,648 miles on 2009 Subaru Outback 2.5i with Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w30.
Customer car with 232,000 miles. I rebuilt engine shortblock about 50,000 miles ago it had been run extremely low on oil several times and had failed head gaskets.
Off/out: Carquest Premium 84712/ 4.1 quarts Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w30
In/on: Carquest Premium 84712/ 4.8 quarts Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w30
I added half a quart somewhere along the way so total consumption was 1.2 quarts in 9,648 miles.
The car runs and drives great
When Valvoline comes out with 5w40 Restore and Protect it will be my go to Subaru oil and viscosity.
