Giving the Subaru a taste of something new

GTX_HighMileage_1Qt_Generic_CLR_300The Subaru needed 2.5 quarts of oil to bring the level back up on the dipstick.

Austin reminded me yesterday that there are special blends for high-mileage cars that accommodate looser engine tolerances, so I drove to Auto Zone and bought three quarts of Castrol GTX High Mileage motor oil.

I’ll check the oil level daily and will be interested to see if we use less of this stuff than Pennzoil I’d been adding.
