2000 Subaru Forester Oil Capacity
The 2000 Subaru Forester with the EJ251 engine takes 4.2 qt of oil and uses 5W-30. These figures apply to the engine listed in the vehicle facts; check your engine identification if you are unsure which version your Forester has. The oil quantity is a reference for an oil change, while the specified viscosity identifies the recommended oil grade.
Oil capacity and viscosity can differ by year or engine, so do not assume these figures apply to another Forester. The facts here do not specify whether the capacity includes an oil-filter change or provide a separate amount for topping up. If you need a figure that is not listed, confirm it on the door jamb or in the owner's manual.
