SI-DRIVE (turbo and 3.0 L models)
SI-DRIVE (Subaru Intelligent Drive) works
to maximize engine performance, control
and efficiency.
This system consists of three modes:
Intelligent (I), Sport (S), and Sport Sharp
(S#). By adjusting the SI-DRIVE selector,
the character of the power unit changes.
The multi-information display located in
the tachometer provides the driver with
the ability to monitor both vehicle perfor-
mance and the current SI-DRIVE mode.
To change the multi-information display,
refer to the“Multi-information display
(vehicle with SI-DRIVE) ”in chapter 3. &
Intelligent (I) mode
For smooth, efficient performance driv-ing
The Intelligent (I) mode provides well-
balanced performance with greater fuel
efficiency and smooth driveability without
stress. Power delivery is moderate during
acceleration for maximum fuel efficiency.
This is ideal for around-town driving and
situations that do not require full power
output. It provides better control in difficult
driving conditions, such as slippery roads
or loose surfaces, due to gentler throttleresponse.
When Intelligent (I) mode is selected in
vehicles equipped with a manual trans-
mission, a shift-up indicator “
”in the
tachometer will blink to signal the best
time to shift gears for maximum fuel
efficiency. Starting and operating

9. Clean the rubber seal seating area of
the bottom of engine and install the oil
filter by hand turning. Be careful not to
twist or damage the seal.
10. Tighten the oil filter by the amount
indicated in the following table after the
seal makes contact with the bottom ofengine.
Model Oil filter
color Part
number Amount of
rotation
2.5 L models Black 15208AA100 1 rotation
Blue 15208AA12A 7/8
rotation
3.0 L models Black 15208AA031 3/4
rotationCAUTION
. Never over tighten the oil filter
because that can result in an oil leak.
. Thoroughly wipe off any engine
oil that has spilled over the
exhaust pipe and/or under-cover.
If left unremoved, the oil could
catch fire.
11. Reinstall the cover under the oil filter.
12. Pour engine oil through the filler neck. Oil capacity (guideline): 2.5 L models: 4.2 US qt (4.0 liters, 3.5 Imp qt)
3.0 L models: 5.8 US qt (5.5 liters, 4.8 Imp qt)
The oil quantity indicated above is only a
guideline. The necessary quantity of oil
depends on the quantity of oil that has
been drained. The quantity of drained oil
differs slightly depending on the tempera-
ture of the oil and the time the oil is left
flowing out. After refilling the engine with
oil, therefore, you must use the level
gauge to confirm that the level is correct.
13. Start the engine and make sure that no
oil leaks appear around the filter ’s rubber seal and drain plug.
14. Keep the engine idling until the engine
reaches the normal operating temperature
range, as indicated by the temperature
gauge on the combination meter. After
that, check the engine oil level again. For
further details about the check procedure,
refer to
“Checking the oil level ”in this
section. & Recommended grade and viscosity
CAUTION
Use only engine oil with the recom-
mended grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: –ILSAC GF-4, which can be identified
with the ILSAC certification mark (Star-
burst mark) – or API classification SM with the words
“ ENERGY CONSERVING ”
These recommended oil grades can be
identified by looking for either or both of
the following marks displayed on the oil
container.
