2009 Subaru Forester Oil Capacity

The 2009 Subaru Forester takes 4.4 qt of 5W-30 engine oil for both listed engines: the EJ253 and the EJ255 Turbo. The capacity and oil grade in the facts are the same for these two engine options, so the listed amount does not change by engine.

Read 4.4 qt as the stated oil capacity, and 5W-30 as the recommended oil grade. These figures identify the capacity and grade for the engines listed here; they do not specify whether the amount includes an oil-filter change or give any other service details.

The facts provided cover the EJ253 and EJ255 Turbo for this model year only, and do not show differences by trim. If your vehicle’s engine or exact service requirement is not covered by these figures, confirm the capacity and oil grade on the door jamb or in the owner's manual.
