You're not alone.....
Don't ever assume the dealers use the right oil. I don't have an STI, but I was thinking of putting the EXTRA-S gear oil in my 2.5, so I called 3 Subaru dealerships here in Toronto to inquire about the price, all 3 had never heard of EXTRA-S... considering that it states in the STI manual that EXTRA-S gear oil is mandatory for current STIs.

These dealerships didn't have it, makes you wonder what they use on new STI transmissions.
