chisav Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 The Subaru tech said it's Extra-S and Subaru doesn't offer any other 75/90. So I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 The letter says "the new 75w-90" It doesn't read, Extra-S in available in qt bottles. Funny, I googled this oil yesterday, while on the skiing forum where I spend time when not here, an ad for that oil popped up on the right side. Yea, nobody tracks you go on-line... 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

chisav Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I emailed Idemtisu to see if they could verify if it was the same. Not sure if they can due to NDA stuff but we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
