Five hundred thousand miles.On the original engine. Original transmission. Original turbocharger if you have one. Without a single major repair. That’s not a fantasy. That’s not a YouTube myth. That’s a documented, achievable outcome for Subaru owners who build the right habits early and maintain them consistently over the life of their vehicle.
I’ve spent years studying what separates the Subarus that die at 120,000 miles from the ones that hit 400,000 and keep going. I’ve analyzed maintenance records from high-mileage vehicles. I’ve talked to the owners who got there. I’ve consulted with mechanics who’ve worked on hundreds of thousands of miles worth of Subarus, and here’s what I’ve found: the difference is almost never luck. It’s almost never a particularly special model year or a uniquely well-built engine. It’s habits.
Specific, repeatable, daily habits that cost almost nothing individually but compound over hundreds of thousands of miles into an engine that tests clean, a transmission that shifts perfectly, and a vehicle worth driving long after most people have traded theirs in for something newer. The owners who hit 500,000 miles aren’t doing anything exotic. They’re not using $200-a-quart specialty oil or visiting a specialist mechanic every month. They’re doing simple things, consistently, over a very long time. In this video, I’m revealing every one of those habits. Not tips. Not suggestions. Proven habits practiced by real owners who’ve actually achieved extraordinary Subaru longevity. If you build these habits starting today, your Subaru will still be running strong when every other car on your street has been replaced twice.

I use only Castrol edge for synthetic in my outback, they say it's good for 20,000 miles between oil change changes, I don't get anywhere near that, I change my oil like clockwork at 5000 miles, no more no less
joke … Subs are of poor design
Facts right here.
I call BS on this video 60 second warm is to long driving easy at first is good oil at 5000 is ok if you don't drive hard
