Some store links earn NoJunkParts a small commission, at no extra cost to you. It never changes which part we recommend or the order the stores appear in. How we make money

How the job goes

1. Warm the engine briefly, park on level ground, and shut it off.
2. Drain the oil, then remove the old filter. Make sure its gasket came off with it.
3. Oil the new filter's gasket and spin it on hand-tight plus about 3/4 turn.
4. Reinstall the drain plug with a new washer, refill with the grade and amount in your owner's manual, and check for leaks.

Before you order

• Check your owner's manual for the approved oil specification and capacity.
• 2013 and later Outbacks use 15208AA21A.
• The 3.6R uses 15208AA031.
