ive brought sum mobile 1 motorsports 15 50 engine oil for my wreg scoob turbo and i just want to make sure its a gud oil to use as i drive it quite hard,also does any one know how many litres it takes to fill the engine because theres only 4 litres in the tub, and is an oil filter from halfords ok to use or is there sumwhere better to get one from? any advise is appreciated. cheerz jay

 

Stick with the Subaru oil filter they're cheap enough. Sump holds 4.8 litres. Nowt wrong with 15/50 Mobil 1.

 

thanks mate

 

Am I right in saying you should keep oil no more than half full due to problems with boost solenoid e.t.c.....ANYONE?????? dont forget to fill the oil filter first.

 

I wouldnt say only half full mate....But do not over fill the oil level as it can contaminate the boost solenoid and pipework,theres 3 marks on the dipstick lower level - full level and a notch higher up which is full when hot and yes fill up the oil filter first before you fit it,Thers a lot of threads on here about doing an oil change,some people disconnect the crankshaft sensor and turn over the engine to get the oil light out first ? some dont ?
Do some reading but dont be put off by what you read....
