It is not necessary to check the gear oil level. Check that there are no cracks, damage or leakage. However, the oil inspection should be performed according to the maintenance schedule in the "Warranty and Maintenance Booklet".
Consult your SUBARU dealer for details.
Recommended grade and viscosity
Each oil manufacturer has its own base oils and additives. Never use different brands together. For details, refer to "Manual transmission, front differential and rear differential gear oil" F12-6.
CAUTION
Using a differential gear oil other than the specified oil may cause a decline in vehicle performance.
