Subaru Outback: Engine oil
NOTE
● When the engine low oil level warning light illuminates, have your vehicle
inspected by your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
● The engine oil consumption rate is not stabilized, and therefore cannot be
determined until the vehicle has traveled at least several thousand miles (kilometers).
Even after break-in, when the vehicle is used under severe driving conditions such
as those mentioned in the Warranty and Maintenance Booklet, engine oil is consumed
or deteriorated more quickly than under normal driving conditions. If you drive
your vehicle under these severe conditions, you should check the oil level at least
at every second fuel fill-up time, and change the oil more frequently. Please refer
to the Warranty and Maintenance Booklet for more details.
● If the oil consumption rate seems abnormally high after the break-in period,
for example more than 1 quart per 1,200 miles or 1 liter per 2,000 kilometers, we
recommend that you contact your SUBARU dealer.
