The 2018 Subaru Outback uses SAE 0w-20 full synthetic oil. The 2.5l engine has a capacity of 5.1 quarts. Oil is important because it is a lubricant for the engine parts, it helps protect the emission system, and it can enhance fuel economy. The cost of an oil change for Your Outback is between $120 and $140 for labor and parts. You should get an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles or 5 to 6 months. You will know that it is time for an oil change if You notice increased engine noise, shaking while idling, excess vehicle exhaust, an oil smell inside the vehicle, and of course if You see the Check Engine or Oil Change lights come on.
