Idk- just seems weird to me. Every manuf I listed including Subaru are very very good at what they do, meaning their " cup of tea" if you will. You can add in Volkswagen into the mix if you want. But it seems like each, at least from owners I've talked to, are having oil troubles. On here we hold Subaru accountable, as this is a brand forum. So its easy to feel its mainly a Subaru issue. But other brand forums are in same boat. I'm not the smartest guy typing this post ;-), but I usually tend to look at commonalities when I see issues among several different things. I'm not sure if its everyone scrambling to meet certain standards, if its materials, oils, lack of QC due to a rush to compete with other brands, or a combo of these in today's world. But I think a coincidence that many brands have the same general issue seems far fetched. Just an opinion
