I changed the oil/filter at 590 miles on my 25 Forester wilderness.
Best Oil filter for Subaru Forester
I've used nothing but Fram on my 16 forester 2.5i. Just hit 102k miles. I change the oil and filter every 3-4k and have never had an issue.
I use a good filter I use Wix XP.
Oil Filters, I always use OEM Subaru oil filters, I just buy the bulk 12 pack from my dealer.
I only use WIX filters on my 04XT. They’re about the only ones that have the correct bypass pressure rating off the Amazon “shelf,” and their build quality is top-notch. I pay attention to things like this because I have an older turbocharged model with performance upgrades- she’s a bit picky haha.
I actually use a Carquest blue-line filter which is literally a rebadged WIX. Even the part numbers match.
FRAM is well known for making cheap shit with poor pleating and cardboard drainback valves. Yes, they'll probably work "fine", but its yet another corner cut by SoA. But why settle for fine?
