Subaru recommends changing your 2013 XV Crosstrek’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your XV Crosstrek may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Subaru recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Subaru XV Crosstrek. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Subaru has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the best motor oil for your 2013 XV Crosstrek. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, regulate engine temperature, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. In an oil change service, an auto technician will change your XV Crosstrek’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your XV Crosstrek by considering your driving style, and mileage.
