First off before you do anything locate and know where your oil pan is and your oil filter. Your pan will be accessed from under the car and will have about a 9/16 bolt on it. That is your oil pan drain. Find your filter which will be most likely on the front right of the engine. Get a pan under the oil pan plug, take off your oil cap in the engine, and unscrew the drain plug. As it is draining take off your oil filter with a filter wrench. You will most likely want something to set the filter in when you loosen it (it is full so keep it upright as possible) Let it drain until all is out, replace the filter, put the plug back in and fill with the recommended amount of oil. Turn it on for about 15 seconds and then off. Check for leaks at the plug and filter and tighten if needed. The filter does not get "cranked down". Don't forget to put your cap back on the top side and you are done. Before you close the hood check to make sure the oil level is in operating range marked on the stick.

Click on the link above, and it gives you a detailed picture on where it is, and how to change it. Thanks. (please rate)

just to be safe get it to a subaru dealer and get it checked on the diagnostics computer,if too much fuel is going in they can adjust it for max power/economy.depending on what YOU want.(the ignition map is adjustable,but only by subaru)also this engine demands an oil/filter change at 5k intervals,using full synthetic oil.(subaru use 10/40,in Europe/Japan)

every 6000 miles ,use cheapest oil you can buy natural or synthetic and a oil filter every thrid oil change then engine will last for ever

a car maker fixing a car over 3 yrs old???what..are you dreaming?even if it has a full service history with a subaru dealer... BUT.... you could phone subaru head office and being very nice and polite, ask them....

remove pan at bottom of trans drain oil, replace filter

they are at the sides of the engine, two on each side. there are coils atop the plugs. hopefully this helps

i have an 05 sti. its the same motor as the 09. you definitley want to use a high quality full synthetic oil 5w-30. check the level often because it is normal for this car to burn a little oil do to the turbo. especially if you start making performance mods.
