I currently have to change the wife's oil. She has a 2015 Subaru Forester with the fb25 engine, and a 6-speed. That combination is known for drinking oil, and hers is no exception. We had an oil consumption test done, but it just greased by at 75000 miles and they wouldn't put a short block in.
I get it neither would I, but I also don't like adding oil as frequently as I have to. I know outside of the US the FB motor was spec'd with thicker weights than in the US, does anybody have any experience running a 5w30 in a Subaru FB motor? Or is there a 0w20 that is really resistant to oil consumption?
