Default Full Service bits

Evening all


My 03 UK STI is getting a full service in a few weeks and whilst i trust the garage doing it to get all the parts, i'm looking at getting them myself as i want the best for each bit (best plugs,leads,oils etc) rather than general bits, if you see what I mean?

I typed in a search and it came back with something that listed parts with part numbers but it meant nothing to me, e.g plugs: pf345 etc

If possible, could somebody list all the bits I would need or point me in the direction of somewhere that sells a decent complete service kit please?

Please don't think I'm being lazy, I've only had the car 3 weeks and as it's my first one, I don't really know what to get or more importantly, what not to!


Many thanks, Stu.

For plugs, use NGK PFR7B's.

For oil, well... thats a bit discussion Millers are a recommended top brand though.

Oil and fuel filters.... i personally just use genuine subaru for both. Replace the paper air filter with a panel filter from the likes of Green, Cosworth etc.

Oh yeah, forgot about that bit! The genuine Subaru pollen filter is nearly £40 iirc, but non-genuine ones online were generally £10-15 when i last looked and do the job just as well.

Cheers guys. Pollen filter is an absolute must for me as I suffer with hayfever quite badly!
