2013 Subaru Forester 2.5 Oil Consumption Test and 574 Mile Family Road Trip (Part 1) 1-23-2021. When Stephanie bought this car in 2019 she was smart enough to get an aftermarket warranty. That may pay off as the car was 4.5 quarts low of oil last Saturday 1-16-21 and had a top end engine knock/rattle. I added 4 quarts of oils and it was still .5 low. It only holds 5.5 quarts of oil and she has never missed an oil change within the guidelines of what Subaru calls for.
Previously she has made a road trip to northern KY and to Land Between The Lakes.
1-18-21 she took it to our local Subaru dealer to start and oil consumption test. This is where they change the oil, mark the drain plug to verify that the plug has not been tampered with, and she returns periodically for them to check the oil and watch for the level to drop.
