Subaru 15208AA024 PT120103 Oil Filter

The engine is best served by having the oil changed regularly because with time, the old oil becomes diluted and contaminated causing a premature engine wear. Make sure you have all the tools you need and plenty of rags or newspapers to mop up spills before beginning. This can be achieved by using a hoist, ramps or jack stands that will enhance easy access under the vehicle. Park it on level ground then start its engine and let it warm up to normal operating temperature. Turn off the ignition switch, take off the oil filler cap and raise your car with jackstands. Remove the splash shield from underneath the engine and place a drain pan below this opening for used oil. Take out the plug gently letting old lubricant flow into your pan. Check if there are any pieces of metal in it that may suggest internal wear of your engine components. Finally, wipe clean around drain plug prior to reinstallation and tightening. Move under filter for more loosening as well as unscrewing using a filter wrench then also wipe off mounting surface at block without leaving any of these old gasket material behind in order to get rid of leaks during installation process.. Apply some oil on this new filter's rubber gasket then screw it tight enough into place once again as I remove all those tools back down where they belong finishing at lowering my vehicle afterwards since everything has been done now. Pour three quarts through an opening of an oil filler cap so that dipstick can show what level should be seen after starting another engine but such information will not come out immediately until this component stops leaking during first few moments when oils begin flowing downwards towards crankcase in front before making sure whether more is required there still or not while probably waiting instead just like everyone else has always done; however please remember never try overfilling container above maximum indicated levels either since such action might spill onto exhaust manifold case thereby igniting fire which would destroy whole automobile along with environment itself.

Access to the underside of the vehicle can be improved with the use of a hoist, ramps, or jacks.

Dispose of the old oil properly by contacting a local refuse disposal company or environmental agency. It should not be discarded irresponsibly.
