Thanks Fairtax4me, I guy I asked was near the Service Dept. so not any of the sales people, and I was on my way out after spending about 3 hours there. Your right the service techs would know. I just happened to ask the guy I saw around there as I was leaving. By the way I see you have a 96 Legacy L sedan! I had a 98 Legacy L wagon. I bought it new and had it for 20 years, I loved it that's why I kept it so long! It was Spruce Pearl, I hated to say goodbye to it but I figured it was time to get something new. I had put in the NGK Iridium plugs and NGK blue wires and I gained around 3 miles per gallon. Can't swear it the car was faster or smoother or started faster. but did gain the extra mpg, which was the most important! The car ran good before but was due for new plugs! Advanced Auto was selling the copper ones for 3 something and the Iridium for 7 something but for me well worth it! Thought I would share that info in case you are ready for new plugs for your 2.2!

Thanks golucky66. That was a quick reply!!!

I recently bought a 2018 Crosstrek and wonder what size socket or wrench I will need to change the oil. When I bought the car I asked a person at the dealership and the didn't seem positive and thought that it was either 14 or 15 mm. That seemed small and I thought it would be around 17 mm. I just wanted to be ready when I it was time to change the oil.

I have a 98 Legacy L, with 2.2 engine, I saw some blue wires from NGK on the internet with the correct rubber boots. I was wondering if NGK wires are recommended as much as the NGK plugs. I have read where people mention using OE wires or Magnacore. I have the original wires and the plugs have 30K miles so I figured it was time to do both. I bought this car, which I love, almost 17 years ago and it only has 91K miles.
