Hello, recently decided to replace the fluids in my forester (03 MT 2.0X European). I would be very grateful for some advice on the fluids required. I've read a lot of posts here but most seem to be for AT US models, so I'm not sure if they differ a lot. Anywho...
Engine Oil I'm OK with, 5W-30 fully synth, and Dot 3 for brake and clutch. The two I'm struggling with are the diff/transmission oils and the power steering fluid (if that's even necessary). Would I be correct in assuming the diffs/transmission use the same fluid (75W-90)?
As far as quantity goes, I believe its 4 litres of engine oil, almost 5 litres for the diffs/transmission, but I am unsure as to the rest.
Also I assume it is best to replace filters/seals? I realise this is quite long winded, but would greatly appreciate any advice no matter how brief!
