  1. Thanks to everyone who replied to this thread! What kind of additional data would help to clarify the situation? I wanted to post some photos but I am ignorant enough to not know what should be photographed and what shouldn't be I am tempted to talk to another dealer to see what they have to say. For now, I am not driving the Forester if I can help it.
  2. I recently took my 2012 Subaru Forester X 4 2.5L to a mechanic, for an annual checkup. They found oil in the coolant reservoir, and told me they suspect a faulty head gasket. In their own words: I took the car to the dealer since it is still just barely under warranty (58.5k miles out of 60k that are warranty-covered). The dealer took the car in, and after a while responded that they think the PCV connector has a leak in it, which cases the oil to get into the cooling system. In their words: I called back my mechanic who was extremely surprised and said that what the dealership described is not possible mechanically. I am now completely lost and not sure who is wrong. Can anyone weigh in based on the data I presented? Thanks!
