The manufacturer of the 2014 Subaru Impreza recommends using SAE 5w-30 oil, as outlined in the factory guidelines. The engine of the vehicle requires 4.2 quarts or 4 liters of oil, which is the recommended amount for oil and filter replacement during servicing. Ensure that you choose the correct oil type and look for the API certification stamp to confirm its suitability for Subaru vehicles. When selecting oil, you can opt for either traditional or synthetic options, but synthetic oil is more effective as an engine lubricant and requires less frequent replacement compared to conventional oil. For standard oil, it is advised to change every 3500 miles, while synthetic oil should be replaced along with the oil filter every 5500 to 7000 miles.
The correct answer is 5.1 U.S. quarts (4.8 liters) of 0W-20.
Here’s a revised version with a similar meaning: "5.1 quarts of 0W-20 motor oil.
The 2014 Subaru Impreza can be filled with synthetic engine oil that meets the standards set for regular engine oil. If you opt for synthetic oil, make sure to choose oil that matches the classification, viscosity, and grade specified in the Owner's Manual, and stick to the recommended oil and filter change intervals outlined in the maintenance schedule. The preferred oil type for the 2014 Subaru Impreza according to the manufacturers is 5W-30, and the vehicle's oil capacity is 4.2 US quarts (4.0 liters).
How frequently should I change the oil in my 2014 Subaru STI with only 46,000 miles, and what is the recommended oil type? Thank you!
