Additional Notes

  • The Subaru Impreza GJ/GP 2.0i cooling system capacity differs by transmission type across both the 2012-2015 and 2015-2016 model ranges. CVT-equipped vehicles hold 7.8 liters, while manual transmission variants hold 7.5 liters.
  • The 0.3-liter difference between CVT and manual transmission configurations likely reflects the additional thermal load the CVT places on the cooling circuit, requiring a slightly larger coolant volume to maintain operating temperatures.
  • Both the 2012-2015 and 2015-2016 Impreza 2.0i share identical cooling system capacities across their respective transmission pairings, meaning no capacity revision was introduced between those two specification periods.
  • The 7.8-liter figure for CVT models represents the full cooling system service fill volume, which accounts for the radiator, engine block, heater core, and associated hoses filled to normal operating capacity.
  • All coolant capacity values listed apply under normal use conditions, meaning the figures reflect standard service fills rather than a first-change-only or severe-duty specification.
