GRETSCH Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 The owners manual in my 2011 Legacy says the coolant will last over 100K. Is this true? I am used to changing coolant every 2-3 years or 24K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflystyle Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 its called "Subaru Super Coolant" for a reason... "starting with the 2008 Impreza STI and all 2009 models, Subaru is using the new Subaru Super Coolant. This new coolant is blue in color and has an extended life of 11 years before servicing is required and cannot be mixed with other kinds. This applies to the 2008 STI (not WRX) and all 2009 models. The color of this coolant is blue and the first replacement interval is 11 years/220,000Km (137,500 miles). The second replacement interval after that is 6 years/120,000KM (75,000 miles). Subaru Super Coolant may be mixed with Subaru Long Life Coolant (SLLC); however when mixed the replacement interval must be followed for Subaru Long Life Coolant, 30 months/ 48,000Km (30,000 miles)."

AZP Installs Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 It will be good for 100k, basically until your timing belt needs a change when you empty out the coolant anyway. -Mike Paisan http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/153798190.jpg Maintaining, Modifying and Educating TriState Enthusiasts since 2001.
