2010 Subaru Forester Oil Capacity

The 2010 Subaru Forester takes 4.4 qt of 5W-30 engine oil for either listed engine: the EJ253 or the EJ255 Turbo. The capacity and recommended oil grade shown here are the same for both engines, so the table does not call for a different amount based on engine choice.

Read the capacity as the listed oil quantity for the engine, and use 5W-30 as the specified grade. These figures apply to the 2010 model year and the two engines identified here; they do not establish requirements for other years or trims. If your vehicle’s engine or trim is not identified, or you need a figure that is not listed, confirm it on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual.

When checking the amount during an oil change, follow the owner’s manual for the correct checking procedure and final level. Do not assume a different capacity based on trim alone; no trim-specific variation is provided in these facts.
