km580 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Does anyone know if Subaru is putting extra s as factory fill for the 5th gen LGT? Thanks No they are not. I was at the dealer the other day asking about the hard shift 1-2 and asked if they could put it in under warranty and hey said no. They are using full synthetic in the crank case for 2011 though. I'm going to change my trans oil though the tech suggested using 1-2 qt's of Redline and the rest royal purple. Fat people are hard to kidnap!!!

jjwink Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Thread revive. My car seems to be getting worse, can't get 1st gear. Redline or extra S? I have seen both ways, extra s is or isn't the factory fill. If its not then what is it? Do they have two fluids available at from the dealership?

I'd use redline and motul, personally.

jjwink Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Would rather take care of this myself. Plus I have bugged the crap out of them already with my Shimmy issue which the mostly fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CL21376 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I've been running royal purple since about 10k with no issues. Shifts seem smoother. That being said, royal purple probably wouldn't have been my fist choice, but it was the only synthetic fluid my local parts store had 4 quarts of.
