2018 Subaru XV

1st PMS last Saturday at 437 kms. Paid Php3,525.00 at BGC for 5 liters oil, filter and free labor. Pwede naman daw i-extend ang intervals to 8 months between oil changes for low mileage units basta i-coordinate lang daw sa kanila ang actual mileage. Still no printed user manual available. Nagkita kami ng SA and he assured us he'll let us know when our promised sensors are available.

Has anyone tried putting clear film on their cars? I’m thinking of having it installed on the headlights and bumper.

My XV is at 1600+ Kms already. I'll bring it to BGC this Wednesday.

Ah so you were not given a user manual when you got the car? Bummer.

If I remember the computation of someone who posted earlier here, I think JohnM got the oil directly from Subaru and they use Shell Helix there. It costs P398/liter (VAT inclusive).

Ay ikaw pala yung nagpost about that info last month

Ah so meron palang choice na Motul ang gamitin sa casa mismo?

Baka nga Motul. Will check the receipt kung nandun ang brand. Wala namang option nabanggit samin when we were there.

Hehe yezzir. shell 5w30 or motul 5w40. Service advisor recommended shell, since motul is recommended for engines with turbo, pwede na daw shell for xvs. So i purchased shell (and ofcourse its cheaper haha) [emoji1]
