Crosstrek Premium 2.0L

  • CVT transmission
  • 50,000 miles

I was driving back from vacation at Palm Springs. I dropped off my girlfriend at Long Beach when my low oil light came on, that genie lamp. I pulled over, checked the oil, it was near the top. I still had 4k left until my next oil change. I turned the car back on, and the light went off. I drove back to Bakersfield, no problem.

Then a few days later the light came back on. Checked the oil again, near the top. Went to the dealer, the guy checked it, near the top as well. But he did recommend to get an oil consumption test the next time it happens. A few days later it happened again. Brought it back to the dealer, for an oil consumption test. They said the oil was low, and to come back in 1200 miles. I'll bring it in this Tuesday or Wednesday to see what they say.
