2013 Subaru Forester Oil Consumption

[JimClark]

Leaky,

Thanks for the T6 suggestion. Here in central PA, winter temps sometimes below zero, should I consider T6 0W-40 vs 5W-40? Admittedly, I'm just an owner, not an enthusiast like you all. I'm planning a driving trip to Florida and the SW this summer. Thx

A friend of mine has a 2012 Forester, and right now, I have Idemitsu 0W-20(non-Zepro version) in it at the last OCI. About 4100 miles has passed and the oil level is still in safe range.

The car is undrr extended warranty, so as much as I would like to switch over to Mobil 1 0W-40FS/Castrol Edge 0w30 Euro/T6 5W-40 or even a 5w30 dexos 1 Gen 2 oil, Imd rather not risk it for now.
