Went ahead and got some new plugs, $40 for all 4 OEM NGK's. Probably could have gone a bit longer, but we have a 1700 mile move in two weeks and just want everything up to date. Next up is the serpentine belt....Looks like a blast

paid $10.40 for 4 oil drain plug crush washers at the dealer ... they must be made of gold.

buy them at an auto parts store.

went to the Infiniti dealer to get some for my car, and the guy threw me a whole bag of them for free.

thats why i use the fumoto valves dont have to worry about it again.

i had one on a car a while ago ... i should get one for the OS.

my other car is too low - i'd worry about tearing a Fumoto off.

I want to look into that Fumoto valve. Sounds cool! Just replaced my serpentine belt. Drawing out the pulleys and belt location made a HUGE difference. Took about an hour start to finish. If you don't have a 16mm wrench, a 5/8" works just as well!

+1 for the Fumoto valve... so nice. Looks like F-106 works for 2011-present Outlander Sport.

Now, somebody just needs to come up with a simple, clean, solution for oil filters. ;^)

Subaru did - its on top!




if my previous Subaru's engine didn't eat itself, i might be enjoying easy oil changes.
