Parts for your 2016 Subaru Impreza

2016 Subaru Impreza: easy-going daily with sensible upkeep

The 2016 Subaru Impreza is a tidy all-rounder, mixing Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive with a relaxed 2.0‑litre boxer engine and a roomy cabin. It’s happy buzzing about town or chewing through country kilometres, and owners rate its planted feel on wet Kiwi and Aussie roads. With hatch and sedan body styles, it balances practicality and economy without feeling bare-bones.

Maintenance is straightforward if they keep to routine. Most workshops in Australia and New Zealand know the platform well, so parts and fluids are easy to organise. Service intervals generally land at around 12 months or 12,500 km, whichever comes first, though severe use—short trips, dusty tracks, or frequent towing—calls for tighter checks. A quick glance under the bonnet shows sensible access to filters, battery, and fluid reservoirs, making basic care simple.

• Engine and fluids: quality 0W‑20 or 5W‑30 oil that meets Subaru specs, fresh coolant, and regular brake fluid changes keep things sweet.
• Filters: engine air and cabin pollen filters clog quickly with red dust or coastal air
