It goes in where your gearbox dip stick is, below and to the left of your intercooler. It should be yellow.
ITS DEFINATELY NOT YOUR ENGINE OIL!! LOL
It takes 75w90 Transmission fluid.

Ok, Im not so clued up with non turbo forresters but its probably in the same place. If you stand in the middle at the front of your engine bay it will be towards the back and to the left slightly. You should see the dip stick down there.
