Aaah, ok, I didn't know that.
My noobie assumption was that the stress a turboéd engine goes through requires a bit more different engine oil, frequency of service etc, than a naturally aspirated one.
Your assumption was right. You should use only pure synthetic oil or a sythetic blend that's recommended by the manufacturer for turbo vehicles. Note - recommended. Not all synthetic oils are the same. Frequency of service is not necessarily higher for a turbo engine - again, the manufacturer specs matter. So it's good that you're looking for a manual.
But thanks all the same, will go through it.
RHD/LHD differences would only be in terms of the location of stuff like headlamp/wiper switches, the steering column, dashboard etc. Engine/transmission/suspension are the same for RHD/LHD cars of the same model. I'm trying to dig up the site I got some Subaru Legacy manuals (full manuals, including repair info for every single part of the car, plus body/chassis repair info like jig points etc.) If I manage to do so I'll let you know. Unfortunately my manuals are useless for you :) BR S
