yep that oil is fine thats the grade what subaru recommend, a good 10w40 is a better grade imo, somthing like mobile 1 super s, its on offer at halfords at the mo for £19.99 for 5 liters

Your better off with a 5w40 fully synthetic or a 10w40 semi synthetic really, a 5w30 is the recommended oil but personally I wouldnt use it.
