Last week i found out my 07 STi was lacking of engine oil from the dipstick indicator so i added about 1 litre of engine oil from the Subaru souvenier bag. Took it down to Melville Subaru, and they said the seal on the oil filter COOLER is not properly fitted. And theres a chance it wont be warranty because i got my exhaust done and someone have messed around with it.

So i went to complained to the Dealer Principal that there's no way that the exhaust people would touched anything near the oil filter cooler or the cooler itself . After few minutes of argument, they finally decided that it is warranty.

O6 / 07 STi OWNERS, Please check your dipstick oil and make sure that the oil is on the FULL line mark! It could be that your car is leaking oil

Was there oil on the ground/obvious leak in your driveway ? 1ltr oil oil leak would make a huge mess....

Yep there was obvious fresh oil dot marks on the garage floor .

Fark dude .. 1Ltr of oil pissed out onto your driveway .. took ya a while ..

Should have bought an STI

It is a brand new car, so maybe checking for leaks wasn't number one priority?

I was told, the oil is spread on to underneath cover of the car.

Yhh i think Melville Subaru didnt do the New car Pre-delivery inspections correctly

I was told to check my Oil after 1000km because its normal for new cars to use more oil then normal. Have been checking it every week and have only added about 100ml for a top up. 1L is a huge amount to leak out thats bad. I think your right on the Pre-Delivery inspections they just ticked the boxes and autographed it thats it.

no problem with mine and just had service done by City Suby. I check my oil regularly and mine is not using much oil at all.

same here... used maybe a 1/4 on the dipstick in the first 5000kms but has never burnt anymore since then.. maybe due to racing it in the first month or so
