I have a 2011 Forester, and for a long time I have thought that the oil consumption has been excessive. So I took it to the dealership and they started an oil consumption test. About the same time I bought a new 2016 Outback and my wife started driving the Forester. Her driving habits are much different to mine. I drive 76 miles round trip to work on the highway, most days. She drives a few miles per day. Immediately I noticed the Forester was no longer using oil. She drove it for about 1000 miles and very little oil was used. So last weekend we had to do a road trip so we took the Forester. 650 miles in 3 days. Basically the oil level went from the full mark to the bottom of the dip stick, well below the min level. This is definitely not right. The dealership have been informed and they are going to look at it next week. I certainly hope Subaru steps up and fixes this problem.
