Front diff/gear box oil is multi Trax, rear diff oil you have correct, use genuine coolant, don't even bother wasting your money on an oil flush or treatment,buy some subaru top end to cleaner,use genuine oil and fuel filter and get some Castrol dot 4 brake fluid

Use Castrol Oils all round if you want to stay on OEM - Subaru Oils are Castrol Magnatec, TransAxle and MultiTrax.

Coolant from Subaru.

Upper Engine Cleaner from Subaru.

Subaru OEM Black Oil Filter and a new seal.

Get a new seal for your drain plugs too - just incase.

Mate personally wouldn't waste your money on expensive filter, I've been using repco and Ryco filters on my Subaru for 4 years and never ever had a problem, so all this bullshit that you must buy genuine, is a load of crap. Same with the coolant, flushed out what ever was in there before and been using tectaloy extra gold for those 4 years and never had a problem. If maintained properly, you shouldn't have any dramas.

You also don't need 12 spark plugs. The iridiums are long life.

No you only use multi Trax In the gear box roughly 3.5l rear diff needs gear oil 75/90, subaru coolant is made by Castrol so you can use Castrol premix coolant no worries
