Gear oil for 2012-2016 Impreza MT

Asked by Paul May 19, 2018 at 08:47 AM about the 2012 Subaru Impreza 2.0i Sport Premium Hatchback

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have sn ‘12 Impreza with a stick and its getting up
in miles so I should change tge oil in the trans and
diff. The only problem is I can’t find an
reccomended weight. And the owner manual says
the typical lawyer speak of see the dealer.  I found
on an Crosstrek forum that they use 75w90 for tgeir
mechanically identical cars. I’m just curious if
anyone knows ehat oil works.

1 Answer

230

75w 90 is what they call for in a manual transmission, read the bottle and make sure it says GL5, differentials the same, as for the amount I usually measure what I drain out to get close to full, then go by the dipstick
