Howdy
Usual question of what oil, what viscosity/winter and whats the best filter to use please chaps.

 

Do a search 94impreza, there are loads of threads on here
Will only take you a week to read em! lol.

 

The Owners Manual in the glovebox should give you a little clue!

Pete

 

And don't forget to fill the filter prior to fitting or the engine WILL go pop.

Oh, nooooooooooooo, please don't start!!

It IS very important, however, to remove the seats, bootlid and carpets before you turn the engine over or disaster will happen and you will be ringing the wonderful,great,honourable,superb,I-want-their-babies API Engines!!

Please do a search for the **** Oil Change and follow the instructions to the letter!! This is not just an engine, this is a super-dooper-nuclear cooled boxer power producing device!!

And it needs **** treatment!!

Pete

 

youve been woken up early today pete.

 

To answer your questions :
O/E Subaru filter from your dealer.
Big choice of oils at varying prices. If it was my car with an engine showing no undue sign of wear, for Winter I would opt for 10W-40 Motul fully synthetic. On a newer car 5W-40 Motul.
There are lots of other oils about that are quite capable, especially if you are not driving on track etc. Some of the semi synthetics are considerably cheaper.

 

Fuchs Titan Supersyn SL 5W40 from Euro Car Parts at £86 for 25 litres. Enough for 5 full changes plus some spare for top-ups and works out at about £16 a time. Superb oil to boot. Do prefil (prime) the filter, no matter what Pete says, and always use a genuine Subaru filter and new compression washer.

 

I ALWAYS pre-fill my filter - unlike Subaru Main Dealers .... what I do say, however, is that I do not think there is a need to soak it overnight - unlike some ***** on here!

At the price, £5, I would always use a Subaru Filter ..... and, get this, I always use a new washer TOO!!

What I think is taking the ****,however, is disconnecting the Crank Angle Sensor and cranking engine before starting .... that was, that is, and that will remain the ****tiest advice ever to come out of ScoobyNet!!

Pete

 

I agree Pete, the engine is under more load on the starter motor than when ticking over nicely, all balanced at idle. The oil pump has more tendency to cavitate at start-up too, reducing oil flow.

 

. . . . .

 

Thats clever - who did you copy THAT little trick off!?

There's a village missing its idiot while you are posting on here!!

Pete

 

Is there a manual to deal with ****s like you ?

 

Or search Madass and take 5 seconds to realise he's a ***** .

 

Oh no, not this again

Pete, I noticed you were very fast to jump in when this topic started old boy, don't go off on one again ffs

I still reckon that scoobynet should have a poll on this " sticky " subject.

If any mods are about, is this possible ? Oil/Brand/Car/Year/Engine/Modified motors, etc.

I think it would be a very good idea tbh, as there never seems to be a right or wrong answer, so people could make there minds up as per the percentage results.

Plus, it would keep Pete quiet, for that reason alone its perfect

Just a thought,

R7

ps, 94Impreza, after much debate and research, I use Silkolene Pro-S 10/50. Its expensive, but you get what you pay for, don't you Pete ? lol

Says it all really, imagine the lack of intelligence he must have to not realise that wooden thing at the end of the hallway opens and there's real people out there.
*I await your cretinous response PS*

 

LOLz0rs! Here we go again
Pete gets his fishing rod out, throws a little bait, and you all fight to jump on the hook ffs! Hahaha.
Fantastic.
But he does have a point you know! It really does tell you in the book too

Pete . . . .

. . .But then again . . .I always thought of you as the idiot . ..Answers on a postcard! . . . . .

. . . . .

 

Its self explainatry really.

 

????

I hope its a lot clearer than your spelling? You back at school tomorrow?

 

lol just proving my previous point more and more....
My spelling may not be up to much, but at least i can understand a simple sentence like the reply i left for you, anyway boyo ask Mummy to explain it.

 

School it is then
Did you get the spell checker out this time?
F7 in word, dunno about on here! LOL.

EDIT:- Ha, you must have spelt something wrong, as you have edited to correct it! Tut, tut. Back to school for more training

 

lol fantastic arguement - spelling
...i also notice you edited, so not so great at spelling yourself either.
I love the way your not denying your a ***** though pmsl .

 

You cant call Pete a c*nt! Pete is an institution!

If it wasn't for us ******, you ****'s would have **** all to do all day!

Oh hang on, i need to catch up here, what is it, rofl, or roflmao, and other such kiddie things. lol, theres another!

 

Nice edit what did you spell wrong this time ?. Give up m8 your fighting a losing battle.

 

lol no he should be in an institution

 

Battle? Oh, i think i have missed the point.
I was just having some forum banter, but if you are going all serious then forget it. I aint that fussed!
It's amazing how twisted things get through forum's.

 

Oh, and whilst i think about it, that should be you're, and not your!
So
