The 2016 Subaru Impreza has a capacity of 4.5 quarts of 5W-30 synthetic oil with filter. This mechanical lubrication filters throughout the 2.5L 4Cylinder engine. Imprezas are known for their speed and tuning capabilities. Since the vehicle is beloved with enthusiasts, it should be simple for owners to perform regular lube jobs on it. Between the cost of the oil and filter, it should not cost more than $70 to do the job. Since this make also has a turbo, it is absolutely vital to use a high-quality synthetic formulation as a lubricating fluid for the motor. Any high viscosity blends could cause the engine to overheat possibly resulting in a blown turbo which is incredibly costly to replace.
