  1. Oil changed 5,000km ago. Penrite full synthetic 5w40. Old girl has done 245k, but oil consumption has just taken off in the last 3000k or so. Non turbo, so that's a lot less leakage potential. It's clean underneath though, and no oil in the bellhousing. Anyone know how the pcv system is set up in one of these?
  2. Hi guys, I'm stumped for ideas on this one. My daily is a 2005 Outback and it runs fine, has plenty of go, gets great fuel mileage etc. I am using a litre of oil every 600km or so. I can tell you there is: No smoke from the exhaust, I can't even smell a light trace of oil burning with my nose right up the tailpipe (made sure no one was watching...) It does not leak oil. The spark plugs are clean. The throttle body and all the hoses that plug into it and around it are clean. Where the heck is all that oil going? Any ideas... cheers fellas
  3. Aaaah, so inspirational! Stopped dailying mine in 2008 due to ridiculous end float. Still haven't taken the motor out, so I cranked her up today. Primed the fuel pump, added battery and boom! Yours looks good!
