Anyone having oil issues?
 

Read this the other day about Subaru being sued over burning excess oil. Does not mention BRZ but does mention the Crosstrek with what I believe to be our engine.

I wonder what's considered excessive loss of oil? All the subarus I've had have burned oil, that's just the nature of the beast. From reading that article it sounds drastic though, like they're losing half of their oil in 3K miles.

1 quart over 3,000 miles.

Edit: with regards to the Toyobaru I'm at about 30,000 miles and I haven't noticed any consumption, it may be happening but not enough to warrant me topping off over the 7,500 mile interval.

FA20 doesn't burn oil from what I have gathered. Factory fill changed at 4800km and Eneos Sustina 0W-20 since, now at 8800km and no oil burning.

nothing here either, but I wonder if that is the reason they shortened the oil change intervals in the 2015 BRZ?

Both of the vehicles mentioned in the article use the FB20 motor (Still a 2.0L but modified from our FA20)

Can't believe Imprezas weren't on that list. Subaru spec is 1 quart/1500 miles is okay!!

Oil consumption on mine varies a lot based on usage. If i drive it hard I'll burn almost a quart per thousand miles. If I just do highway miles, not so much. When driving it hard you definitely need to keep an eye on your fluid levels.

Mines burned about a quart every 1.5-2K miles the first ~30K miles.. now I only burn about HALF a quart every 3-4K miles.

Not that it's relevant, but I used Amsoil 0W-20 the first ~25K miles, then switched to Gastrol.. just switched again to Pennzoil.

hey listen anymore of these illegal links and an injunctive order to cease and desist will be issued and enforced.

I have no issues with my oil. We have a healthy relationship.

The oil fairy sneaks into the engine bay at night and keeps us topped off.
