The 2008 Subaru Forester requires 4.4 quarts of oil. It is recommended to use 5W-30 Synthetic motor oil. To maintain your vehicle, it is advised to change the oil every 7,500 miles or annually, whichever comes first. Regular oil changes can help extend your engine's lifespan, improve gas mileage, and enhance performance. Consistent oil and filter changes are important for removing debris and sludge from the engine. Failing to change the oil can lead to various engine issues over time, as the oil becomes thinner, abrasive, and can cause wear on essential engine components. Synthetic oil is highly recommended for better performance, as it reduces friction and safeguards the engine.
