Subaru vs Toyota parts pricing
Just a quick FYI, I rang my local Subaru and Toyota dealers for price and avail on oil and a filter and this is what I was quoted:
Subaru oil: $101.75 filter: $17.61 Toyota oil: $70.40 filter: $27.00 I didn't give them part numbers just trusted them to look it up themselves. I'm sure if I rang some more locations I could get better pricing but non the less I thought the difference was interesting.

Subaru's oil is 5.5L while Toyota is 4L tho.
Subaru is SM rated for FB engines and Toyota has the correct SN rating. |

If it's anything like the US, Toyota is charging more for parts. Oil filters are 3x as much from Toyota ($23 USD compared to $7). No idea why, and this was from multiple dealers.

Frequent oil changes prolongs engine life. SN is latest spec oil, SM still fine, the grade is the telling factor.

I changed the oil after 1,000kms. Just asked the Subie dealer for BRZ oil.
Oil price between Toyota and Subie didn't seem much. But Toyota sell 4l or 20l drums where Subie sell it in 5.5l. |
