The Subaru BRZ tS was produced from 2018 to 2020. This model typically uses 5W-30 full synthetic engine oil — a specification common to most Subaru BRZ-series vehicles.
Selecting the correct oil viscosity for your Subaru BRZ tS is essential. Using a grade that is too thin reduces protection at operating temperature, while too thick an oil impairs cold-start flow and reduces fuel economy. Always match the exact grade shown for your specific model year.
The recommended oil change interval for the Subaru BRZ tS is every 10,000 miles or 12 months. Under severe driving conditions — track use, towing, or frequent cold starts — shorten this interval by 25–30%.
When servicing your Subaru BRZ tS, always replace the oil filter at every oil change. Using a quality filter — such as Fram, Mobil 1, or OEM equivalent filters — ensures clean oil circulation through the engine block.
Oil change costs for the Subaru BRZ tS at a US dealership or local service center typically range from $60 to $110 for a standard synthetic blend or full synthetic service. DIY oil changes cost approximately $30–$65 in parts (oil + filter) and take about 30 minutes with the right tools.
Always consult your vehicle's owner's manual to confirm the exact specification for your specific trim and engine variant, as some Subaru BRZ tS configurations may have different requirements.
Always use the viscosity grade recommended in your vehicle's owner's manual to ensure proper lubrication and maintain warranty coverage.
Perform periodic dipstick checks to ensure proper oil levels, especially prior to long road trips or heavy load use.
