Subaru Impreza, GE, GH (EU)

Clutch fluid capacity & service interval

Subaru Impreza, GE, GH (EU) models utilize clutch fluid with a capacity range between min and max. Service intervals require a check every 24 months or 30000 km. The data covers 6 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
Impreza 1.5R FWD (2008-2012)
  • Use: Normal
  • Between min and max.

Impreza 2.5T WRX STI (2007-2011)
  • Use: Normal
  • Between min and max.

Additional Notes

  • All six configurations across the Subaru Impreza GE/GH (EU) range use a hydraulic clutch system, meaning clutch actuation is fluid-operated rather than cable-driven. In a hydraulic setup, fluid level maintenance is essential to preserve pedal feel and disengagement function.
  • The fluid level specification of "between min and max" applies to all listed configurations. This is a reservoir-level check rather than a measured fill volume, indicating that clutch fluid is not consumed under normal operation and level changes typically signal a leak or internal wear.
  • The 1.5R, 1.5R FWD, and 2.0R variants share an identical service interval of 24 months or 30,000 km under normal use conditions. Whichever threshold is reached first would trigger the inspection.
  • The Impreza 2.0 D, 2.5T WRX, and 2.5T WRX STI configurations carry no listed check interval in the specifications, unlike the 1.5R and 2.0R variants which specify 24 months or 30,000 km.
  • The 1.5R FWD is a front-wheel-drive variant within a model range that otherwise uses all-wheel drive. Despite the drivetrain difference, the clutch fluid specification and service interval are identical to the standard 1.5R.
  • The 2.5T WRX and 2.5T WRX STI share the same clutch fluid specification as each other, with both operating under normal use conditions and requiring fluid to sit between the reservoir's minimum and maximum markers.
  • The WRX and WRX STI variants have a narrower model year span of 2007-2011, compared to the 1.5R, 1.5R FWD, 2.0R, and 2.0 D which extend through 2012.
