What Subaru specifies
Subaru's official parts site lists Super Coolant 50/50 Prediluted, part SOA868V9272, which supersedes SOA868V9270 [1]. Subaru publishes no spec code there, so there is nothing for an aftermarket maker to cite. Products that suit Subaru simply name it in their application text, which is the weakest kind of match.
