Hmm, it's best to start the engine for 5 minutes and then check the oil level again ( it allows the fresh new oil to circulate inside the engine, turbo oil line and oil filter.) If not, the oil is only sitting in the engine oil pan, ... And your short of half or one quart. Technican experience 😉 🔧 advice.
Some cars have oil dipsticks that are meant to be read once the engine has been warmed up like this. Many other cars have oil dipsticks that are meant to be read when the engine is cold and has been off for a while. The manual in my Subaru says it is meant to be read cold.
@@182ndNegociator I think that’s only if your checking it after driving, like at a gas station doing a quick check, let it sit off for 5 min first. But after an oil change it’s always smart to start the car and let it run a few min, then have it sit for a few min and re check oil. Helps to get the oil back into all the lines and then check what your true level will be once the oil settles
@@daveroski 5.1 quarts is too much. The oil capacity is 4.8US quarts. When you drain, you'll never get all of that 4.8 quarts out, so 4.5 is about right as outlined in this video.
Could you dyno pre and post cat back exhaust.. also dyno pre and post air filter change with that silly carbon filter. Does the exhaust intake give it any power?
Would you have any concerns with changing the oil by sucking it out the dipstick tube with a fluid extractor pump? That way you don't have to lift the car.
Question: When people say "give the oil filter a 3/4 turn after it makes contact..." I noticed you just hand spun it until your wrist felt like it moved 3/4. I actually use a marker or a particular letter on the oil filter to make sure I move it exactly 3/4 around, but it gets too tough for me to do without an oil filter wrench to yank on. When I took my old factory filter off, it was also too tight to remove by hand. In your experience does hand tightening it suffice? (as shown here).
So im changing my oil for the first time after my 4 free oil change from the dealer. Why is the 5qt oil cheaper than 5 1qt oil? im heared good things about penzoil ultra platinum
Because it’s the same amount of oil but like 4x the amount of plastic and packaging. This is a very common thing in any aspect of life, you buy in bulk you pay less..
It was probably there, I made that mistake as well, it's painted over and same color as drain plug, had to use a nice to get it out. If you put another crush washer ontop it could cause leaks.
It’s better to have new car oil changed by dealer (Subaru free 3 years) when vehicle under warranty as I’ve seen engine repairs denied because people couldn’t prove it was done. But good video none the less.
Mine cost $0.01 for the first 4 services (package) . Every dealer is different. But it blows if you change the oil at 1k miles as that counts as a service (the 1st 6k mi service).
@@K03sport don’t quote me on this one, but I’m pretty sure Subaru doesn’t require the 1,000 mile oil change anymore. They break the car in before it heads over to the dealer, but the miles are re set to 0 from factory after they do the first 1,000 for ya
Don’t start the car with an empty oil filter. Step on the gas then turn the ignition. The engine will turn over but not start. This will pump oil into the oil filter.
@@KlarkieCS clear flood mode is where the accelerator pedal is held 100% and then you crank the car to build oil pressure since the filter is at the top
Wow, just like the VA... Noooo, 0w-20. Gas mileage cheater oil...why Subaru why. Is that what the dealer put in my VA WRX? 😳5w-30 synthetic at any temperature and you won't sacrifice engine wear/turbo damage for a mpg or 2.
If you do decide NOT to follow manufacturers recommendations (ill advised if you want to preserve the warranty on the car) make sure the oil in the WRX FA engine is ILSAC GF-6A certified as well. Its a new oil standard for 2020+ cars. It should be on the oil bottle label
Always use an engine oil flush and add that to the oil and run the car for 5 minutes then drop the oil. 0W-20 is like water and pretty much useless for your engine. 5W-30 is enough.
Useful video, 👍 especially for those new "turbo driver/ owner" especially after the three year maintenance plan expired. I was too lazy to change / do it myself during the winter season ,... Dealership charged me $126😢 full synthetic oil service.... I could have saved $60+ dollars changing it myself with tire rotation hmm 🤔 😏.... And I don't need to recheck their works.... 😢 They spills oil onto the driver side engine and oil smoking during my drive back home.... Hmm, I am a technician (past job) ...

Yeah the oil filter is empty. I have same engine. Actually after draining oil for an hour. It takes 5.1 quarts to fill line
Haha I rushed to the comments for this

Differential fluid change and coolant change?
How many oil quarts does it take? 5.4 or ?
4.8 from the factory Subaru service manual.
Could you dyno pre and post cat back exhaust.. also dyno pre and post air filter change with that silly carbon filter. Does the exhaust intake give it any power?
Post the part number for the Tokyo Roki filter for 2.4T
I didn’t have a crush washer to replace it so I used a different plug with a gasket. Is this really bad?
Should be fine just keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn’t leak, then next time replace it with a new crush washer

Can you make a video how to tighten e brake cable?
That was very interesting, didn’t know you changed oil that way. Lol
So you just dip your finger in some of the new oil and rub that around inside the oil filter ring?
Ya
What torque wrench is that?
What oil funnel is that?
Is the crush washer on the oil pan drain plug a Subaru thing?
No. It's am oil pan thing. Helps create a seal without getting the bolt seized.
I would love to know how to bleed the brakes and how to change the transmission oil.
Transmission Fluid not oil and you wont be doing that for several years yet, the 2022 model is too new to need a transmission fluid flush.
That is one heck of a small oil filter 😳
Consider the size of the engine and oil levels. A GT350 uses 10 quarts of oil and it has an even smaller filter.
How many miles before first oil change
You can go up to 5k-6k...but most change it at 1k-1.5k. Personal preference really. Or split the difference at 3k.
@@K03sport -- yes first at 1000 then some say again at 2000 or 3000 then scheduled miles?
In doing my break in. I’ll do 500 then 1000 then 3k then every 3k after
Changes my oil at 1.5k. Noticed there was not a washer/gasket on the drain plug from factory. Interesting 🤔
It was probably there, I made that mistake as well, it's painted over and same color as drain plug, had to use a nice to get it out. If you put another crush washer ontop it could cause leaks.
@@alexistacuri3454 oh really? So it’s possible there is a washer just that it’s married to the plug? I’ll definitely check next oil change. Thanks!

exhaust finisher tutorial, or im gonna do it. lol
You should have included the trick to cycle the oil through the filter.
What trick is that?
Not exactly sure how right now, but you basically operate the oil pump without firing up the ignition thus cycling oil through the filter.
@@ninjaridaz4571 oh, that! Hold down the gas and the clutch while pressing the start button.
Don’t start the car with an empty oil filter.
Step on the gas then turn the ignition. The engine will turn over but not start. This will pump oil into the oil filter.

Well, better than them showing how to install overlays...
These videos are useful for new car owners. I watched a ton of these videos before deciding to do my own maintenance.
Oil and filter change wow it’s not rocket science 🙄
