Stay Current with the Oil and Fluids in Your Subaru Vehicle

When it comes to keeping your Subaru model running as well as it did as it left our Commerce Township showroom, it's incredible how important the fluids that run through it are to its longevity. The staff members here at LaFontaine Subaru are well-trained to know how each of our available Subaru vehicles run efficiently, and a large reason for their success comes through a healthy supply of fresh oil. As a result, our customers from Novi, West Bloomfield, Farmington Hills and Troy, MI have been able to keep on with the adventures they take in their healthy, all-wheel driving rides.

Since everyone has a different oil type and viscosity requirement, as well as different intervals to remember, it's important to keep in mind how often your specific model needs to come in for an oil change. Simply check out the chart below to see what's recommended for your current model, or maybe even a future model that you've had your eye on. By staying up-to-date, you're able to guarantee that your Subaru will continue to ride smoothly for years to come!

Subaru recommends that you check the oil level on your dipstick at every other fuel stop. Depending on your driving style and other conditions, your engine may consume oil more frequently between oil changes. It’s good practice to check the level regularly to help ensure your Subaru continues performing safely. It’s easy and anyone can do it. Here’s how:

Your Subaru uses different fluids to help support and protect its various systems. Our Factory Trained Teams inspect them each time you visit us for service during the Free Multi-Point Inspection. It also helps to keep an eye on these fluid levels yourself from time to time. It’s simple – just open your hood and look for the yellow caps. Check out the videos below to learn more.
