You even watch the video? Directly after that I said put in 4, and then I checked the level, then added another half quart to get it up to the dipstick. So I did indeed put the correct amount of motor oil.

@@danielfliman3683 Yes, I watched it. At 5:34, you state "the service manual calls for 4.75 quarts," which is incorrect. Regardless of whether you ultimately used the correct amount of oil, you still provided inaccurate information.

Dr. Oil to the rescue

I gotchu

Dude.

Oil should be about $25-$30 and filter should be around $10 but if you don’t have the tools then you would need those as well. Best of luck!

Update: I bought the parts, I will do the oil change tomorrow. I’m so amazed how inexpensive all the materials cost. Wish me luck.

Update: yep, I did the oil change! Yay! It was fairly easy and followed the instructions! Only problem I encountered was the screw to oil under the car was too tight and stripped (I didn’t do it, they probably did that the previous oil change at the agency). Went to Orileys and told them my problem and they recommend some pliers type tool and a new oil screw cap. That was my only hiccup. Sorry I don’t know all the terminology or names of the tools. But for other women out there… totally recommend following the video. Even with the tools… it was 1/3 of what I pay at the dealership.

Congratulations I am happy for you!

@@danielfliman3683 what?

Yes it is fool.

Agreed, not as bad as BMW where you have to remove a coolant hose on some cars to get to it

You will have to remove the reservoir. Should just be 2 bolts at the top. Always a good idea to remove the reservoir, drain it and clean any residue/sediment.

You probably figured it out but yeah as long as it dexos you’ll be good. All GM vehicles need dexos approved oil

Thanks and you’re welcome!

No problem!!

Idk maybe it’s just me but I don’t think it’s a good idea to take mechanical advice from someone that doesn’t know what a nm is

According to Subaru, 1st replacement interval is 11years/137,500 miles, and then every subsequent replacement is every 6 years/ 75,000 miles.

@@danielfliman3683 thanks bud

I hope you are being sarcastic. Castrol is known as a budget oil, doesn’t stack up nearly as well as Pennzoil or Mobile 1 in private testing. A good source for private testing is Project Farm, feel free to do your own research but many consider him as the gold standard of unbiased oil testing. But to each their own. Fresh oil is better than used.

Not sure what Toyota you have but I have a rav4 hybrid and a Venza and both of them you only have to flip two clips by hand and then you can have easy access to the engine air filter. Here is a video for reference: ua-cam.com/video/buN9mVc8ryQ/v-deo.html

@@danielfliman3683 design is stupid it's one reason why I like American cars they aren't as complicated and over engineered as my camry

@Solidwolf34 wrong I've seen sole American cars last just as long

Only use blue Subaru coolant

No problem! Thanks for watching!

I don’t recommend using one. Subarus are very particular on the coolant they use, I would say to use the OEM coolant and nothing else.

@@danielfliman3683 I am from Egypt and there are no Subaru coolant so I need alternative

Asian blue is the same🍻

There is a plug that comes with the kit, after the coolant stops going down, you plug it, and then drain it back into the coolant container.

Were you dropped as a baby?

@@danielfliman3683 no, just lazy as an adult🤦‍♂️ I read the manual reluctantly 😒👍

@@leonsam12 If you can find me a single car on the road that was made past 2018 and is mass produced that doesn't call for full synthetic I will be impressed

the book says no

Hey! I’d love to if I still owned the car haha. Make sure you are jacking the car from the pinch weld, the semi thin line of metal that runs the length of the car, there are little cut outs in the pinch weld that you can use to know where to jack it from. Then make sure to put your stand on a chunky piece of frame and not the floor board, that’s pretty important. If you hit the frame with a screwdriver it should sound like metal on metal or else your hitting the floor board.

The jack placement is in your owners manual also there is arrows on the rocker panels indicating where to place your jack stands on 90%of cars

Sorry but maybe you should go to the dealership or to a forum not the comments of an oil change video, and you’ll have better luck getting an answer.

check the blinker fluid it should be between the 2 lines, if it's under you will have no lumens and if it's over it will have too many lumens, as for the color there should be a knob inside the glovebox on the left that's for adjusting the color and brightness

No problem!

That comes off easily. Push the plastic tab and slid it out towards the drivers side.

Not sure, but I wouldn’t use aftermarket stuff, especially on a Subaru.

Thank you!

About every 8 years or 100k miles, so I would go ahead and “drain and refill” your system, it’s technically not a flush. Only flush if your system is very dirty.

@@danielfliman3683 I’ll have the dealership check it out next time I took it in for an alignment and they said everything looked amazing they actually wanted to buy my forester from me considering I just bought it. But I’ll have it maintained and keep it for many years.

Up to you, I used to work at a dealership, if you ask the service team if you need something, they are likely going to say yes even if you don’t need it, that’s how the game goes.

@@danielfliman3683 yes they told me every 60,000 miles the coolant needs to be flushed

I did want to ask you what does the Subaru coolant conditioner do?

No problem!

No.

Not 100% sure, sorry.

What a stupid comment. This guys trying to help you out. It’s not his job to accommodate all variables. If it doesn’t work for you carry on…it’s hardly misleading.

Different size engines have different oil filter locations lol

Different engine. The video is a 1.4L LUV. Yours would be a 1.4L LE2.

Also, the caps on the LUV engines are marked either UFI or Hengst. Depending on what cap you have it will need a unique filter.
