The service manual calls for 5W-30. Full synthetic would be your best bet on oil changes with a OEM Subaru oil filter and new gaskets (o-rings). Depending on your area (hot or cold), the viscosity rating of the oil you use can vary to off set efficiency in the hot or cold temperatures.

If it's a push button start that you're talking about, make sure your brake lights are coming on when it's acting up. Sometimes I've had intermittent brake on/off switches cause a no crank concern because the car doesn't know you're stepping on the brake pedal. Just have someone watch the brake lights if it acts up on you.

hi. 1 Drop that thermostat in a pot of boiling water for about 5 seconds. remove with a large pot spoon(not your hand)it should be wide open and closing as it cools.if not replace it seconds. 2 Make sure the thermo stat bubbler thingy is facing towards the small water outlet, on the pump. 3. it helps to jack up the vehicle on the left side. 4.turn heater on high and the blower setting on feet. 5. fill radiator to the top and the overflow bottle to the max line. pulse pump the bottom hose first with your hand, then do the same with the top tank hose. 6. start vehicle, leave the heater on high and foot setting for a bit. 7. top up radiator and you should be good to go. if not repeat.

Circuit malfunction is often caused by damaged wiring. Also check the pins and terminals at the connector carefully.

My first guess would be that the timing belt is off a tooth or two on the cam sprockets. It's easy to get wrong if you don't follow the EXACT installation sequence. The usual cause it not clamping the belt on to the cam sprockets (use a paper clip, clothes peg or small vice grips) while you install the belt around the idler bearings and tensioner. Ensure you fit the pin on the compressed tensioner, and only remove it once the belt is installed. Then, manually turn the engine round and VERIFY that the timing marks still line up before attempting to start the engine.
