Hello oil guru's
I have a 06 Subaru Tribeca I bought it used with 13,000 miles. I have used Quaker State Syn, and Valvoline Syn, and use wix filters ( I just bought a couple factory oil filters the other day). Does anyone know what type of oil and filter a Subaru really likes? I change my oil every 5,000 miles and live in hilly W.V. can or should I go longer.
I also have a 99 Honda Civic and have run Castrol syn since 75,000 and currently have 130,000. I have a small oil leak. I use about 1/4 a quart from 2,300 to 3,000 then I change it and it doesn't require oil again about 2,300. Should I keep changing it at 3,000 or just keep adding oil and wait 5,000. Keep in mind I have no clue how much oil I would loose beyond 3,000 miles.
Thanks for all your advice. Great Site!!!
