Are you sure it was only oil when you checked? It didn't look like a chocolate shake at all did it?

MarkR171 · 02-02-2016, 02:14 PM

From the dipstick, it looked like regular oil.

Check the coolant reservoir by any chance?

Dealer is going to take care of it under warranty I'm sure, but people like taking internet guesses.

I'm actually going to guess that the motor ingested coolant and spun a bearing. Twofold guess, but tried and true Subaru issue. Would also account for the "oil overfill."
